Your questions answered about Direct Primary Care

We’ve answered common questions about Direct Primary Care to help you better understand how the membership works and whether it may be the right fit for you.

What is Direct Primary Care?

Direct Primary Care, or DPC, is a membership-based healthcare model designed to make primary care more accessible, personal, and predictable. Instead of relying on the traditional insurance model for routine primary care visits, patients pay a monthly membership fee for ongoing access to care and a more direct relationship with their provider.

This model gives patients a simpler, more connected healthcare experience with more time, more access, and support tailored to their individual needs.

How does Direct Primary Care work?

With Direct Primary Care, patients pay a monthly membership fee for access to routine primary care services and ongoing support. This allows for a more thoughtful, patient-centered experience with time to address health concerns, review goals, and create a personalized plan of care.

Does Direct Primary Care allow both in-person and virtual visits?

Yes. Elite Health and Wellness offers both in-person and virtual primary care visits, making it easier for patients to receive care in the way that works best for them.

What can I expect during the initial visit?

Your initial visit is designed to establish care and create a personalized plan for ongoing wellness and support. During this visit, your provider may review your medical history, current concerns, medications, health goals, chronic conditions, and preventive care needs.

Because each visit is personalized, services and recommendations may vary based on your individual needs and plan of care.

Your initial visit may include:

  • Full review of medical history and current health concerns
  • Discussion of acute and chronic conditions
  • Medication and allergy review
  • Focused or comprehensive physical exam, as appropriate
  • Preventive care and wellness planning
  • Development of a personalized care plan
  • Lab review, lab ordering, imaging, or referrals when indicated
  • Care coordination and follow-up planning

Who is Direct Primary Care right for?

Direct Primary Care is a great option for patients who want a more personal, convenient, and supportive approach to healthcare. It can be especially helpful for busy individuals, patients managing chronic conditions, remote patients who value virtual care, and anyone looking for a more direct relationship with their provider.

How is Direct Primary Care different from traditional primary care?

Direct Primary Care is different from traditional primary care because it uses a monthly membership model instead of relying on the traditional insurance process for routine primary care visits. This allows for a more personal, convenient, and connected healthcare experience.

With Direct Primary Care, patients often benefit from more time with their provider, easier access to care and follow-up, in-person and virtual visit options, and support focused on long-term wellness. It also offers more predictable costs, without the same insurance-related barriers and delays that can make routine care feel more complicated.
