🚨 Ever show up to your annual physical with a list of things you actually want to discuss… and you were told you need to schedule another appointment.
Your hormones? Come back.
Your anxiety? Come back.
That knee pain? Come back.
Your doctor is ready to help, but insurance rules can make it more complicated. 🙃
Right now technically you can but your doctor probably doesn't have time and if they do, they're billing for it, and you're getting charged a copay or coinsurance or deductible you might not have anticipated.
CMS has proposed changes to how certain services are paid for when they're performed alongside other services during the same visit. If finalized, these changes could create even more pressure to separate care into multiple appointments or charge you more.
This is exactly why I practice Direct Primary Care.
✨ Want to talk about your mood, sleep, weight, or hormones during your physical? Let's talk.
🩺 Need a Pap smear? We can do that.
👂 Need your ears cleaned out? We can do that, too.
💬 Have three other things on your mind? You don't have to pretend they don't exist because your appointment is over.
In my DPC practice, insurance doesn't dictate what we can discuss during your visit.
That's what healthcare should feel like.
👇 DPC means better care, more time, and direct access to your doctor. I have time to talk about your mood, pain management, weight management, hormones, perimenopause, menopause, anxiety, blood pressure, and the things that matter to YOU.
✨ Accepting new patients, families, & business teams
