Most people don't realize what we really have for medical insurance is catastrophic insurance. On average, we pay $100 to $400 per paycheck for our insurance premiums, and are required to pay a deductible of $500 to $6,000 before insurance kicks in. In addition, we are paying 10%-30% of what is called co-Insurance. This means we are responsible for paying 10%-30% of the overall office visit bill even after the deductible is paid. Why do we pay so much and why do healthcare costs rising? Answer: Insurance Companies, on average insurance companies get 42 cents on each dollar spent in healthcare.

What does this get us? A quick 10-minute visit with a provider, who is rushed to get to the next patient. Medicine is not supposed to be this way, you do not have to pay deductibles and co-insurance to the insurance companies and get a 10-minute visit with little access to your provider. We have been practicing primary care for over 10 years and after researching, we have found a better way… Direct Primary Care!
