Questions & Answers About Love Health’s Direct Primary Care Model
What is the Direct Primary Care Model?
Love Health DPC operates under a direct primary care model. This is a newer membership based concierge primary care practice, which means we prioritize patient-centered medical care by offering non-rushed appointments typically lasting 30-45 minutes. Our model emphasizes accessibility, affordability, and a holistic approach to primary care, where you and your needs will always come first.
Do you accept insurance?
To provide the highest quality, patient-centered medical care, we cannot accept insurance for our services. Instead, we offer an affordable monthly membership option, which is cheaper than what most pay for their cell phones or internet.
Can I still use my insurance?
Absolutely! Your insurance can be used for other services like labs, radiology, specialist care, medications, and more!
What if I don’t have insurance?
Not to worry! That’s another benefit of choosing Love Health’s direct primary care model. I choose to NOT maintain typical health insurance and instead use a healthcare sharing plan.
What if I have an HMO insurance plan?
Unfortunately, some HMO-type plans make joining a DPC practice difficult or impossible. HMO plans require that you have a primary care doctor who is "in-network" with your insurance company. We recommend you check with your insurance to see if this is the case for you.
What pricing options are available for your direct primary care model?
If you are interested in understanding the fee structure of our direct primary care model, here’s a breakdown of the costs:
- $89/month for adults
- $39/month for children (ages 4-22) with an accompanying adult membership
- Employers signing up five or more members enjoy discounted rates at $60/month
- There is a one time $50 initiation fee
- I do not believe in contracts – if it’s not working for you, simply cancel at any time before the next billing cycle.
We also offer unique Community Sponsorship Opportunities, such as:
- The Supporter Membership: Alongside your own membership, you can contribute $60 monthly to sponsor a community member in need.
- Direct Sponsorship: Members can choose an individual to sponsor their membership, fostering inclusivity in healthcare access.
What does the monthly membership fee cover?
The monthly membership fee covers all primary care services with Dr. Dana, including but not limited to suture, suture removal, flu, and strep testing. It basically includes all the services listed on our Services page.
Can Non-Members Still Access Your Services?
Absolutely! While being a member of our direct primary care model unlocks exclusive benefits like direct communication with Dr. Dana and unhurried appointments, non-members are warmly welcomed for individual appointments and services.
How is Privacy Maintained Regarding Medical Records?
Protecting your privacy is our top priority. Your medical records are kept strictly confidential and are never shared without your explicit consent, ensuring the utmost trust and confidentiality in our DPC practice.
