Dr. Chheda - 🏥 What is the difference between DPC, direct primary care, and concierge medicine? They both offer stronger relationships with patients. You can communicate with your physician a lot more. But the main difference is that with concierge practices, they still bill insurance. You still have to pay co-pays, you still have to meet your deductibles. There might be a larger staff, and there's usually a higher price tag - insurance plus a fee.
💚 DPC, Direct Primary Care - you still get the physician, you're still able to communicate with the physician, but it's a much leaner staff. You don't have co-pays, you don't have to meet a deductible. You have a direct relationship with the physician, and it's usually at a much lower price point than concierge.
📱 Harmony Pediatrics is a direct primary care practice. We don't bill insurance. Don't think of us as concierge with higher price points. We actually have much, much lower price points. You can still text, you can still FaceTime. You don't have to bring your child in every single time.
