What is Direct Primary Care?

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a healthcare model where patients pay a membership fee directly to a ​primary care physician for comprehensive medical services, bypassing traditional insurance.

By eliminating the middleman of insurance, DPC aims to reduce costs, increase transparency, and ​improve the doctor-patient relationship.
