Pioneer Direct Primary Care

"Pioneer DPC strives to eliminate the boundaries of traditional healthcare systems in order to bring patients exceptional care. In addition to the comfort and peace of mind provided by having affordable quality, patient-centric healthcare easily accessible, all Pioneer DPC members have access to various benefits.

Direct primary care is a modern version of the old-time patient physician relationship. Specifically, the physician provides the patient with medical care without any insurance or government involvement. The physician sets a fixed fee for medical care and the patient pays this charge directly to the physician. In exchange, the physician provides more personalized and attentive medical care thourgh preferred services, such as extended office visits and direct access with modern technology.

 

Care is generally provided at the physician’s office, but can include home visits and assisted living or nursing home rounds under special circumstances. The number of patients in direct primary care practices tends to be small, usually limited to between 400 and 600 patients. This smaller number ensures a much more personalized and higher level of professional care.

 

Direct primary care is not insurance. It does not cover any medical services or supplies outside the physician’s scope of practice (ie: sub-specialty care, hospitalization services, imaging studies, outside labwork, prescriptions, etc.)."
