Direct Primary Care doctors in Tucson, AZ

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is an increasingly popular model of delivering healthcare in which the patient has a direct contract with their primary care doctor. Patients typically pay a flat fee in exchange for a broad range of services from their doctor.

Since the patient is paying their doctor directly, there is no insurance company involved and no claims to be filed. Health insurance coverage is still recommended for care that cannot be performed by a patient’s primary physician, such as emergency care, hospitalization, and specialty care. High deductible, catastrophic health insurance plans, and healthcare sharing plans are popular plans to pair with a DPC membership.

Pros of Direct Primary Care:

– Spend more time with your doctor.
DPC doctors spend less time on paperwork and administration and usually see less patients overall, giving them more time to spend with patients.

– Better access to your doctor
Many DPC doctors provide their cell phone number and/or email address to patients, as well as offer in-home visits and last-minute appointments.

– Lower costs
Transparent and affordable costs for primary care services without involving insurance companies. Some offices also offer generic prescriptions at discounted rates.

“Can I pay for a DPC membership with Health Savings Account (HSA) funds?”
Health Savings Account-compatible health plans (HDHP) are a popular type of health insurance plan to pair with a DPC membership. You can’t use HSA funds to pay for your DPC membership, but you can use HSA money to pay for your out of pocket healthcare expenses paid to your DPC physician.
