POV: Testing the clinical team on marketing buzzwords vs. testing the non-clinical team on medical terms. 🤓📝

We were doing so well until number 4. In a Direct Primary Care practice, "CPT Codes" are officially a "Hard No!" 🚫✂️

Throwing it back to the Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility (VBSR) Conference a couple of weeks ago! 📸

Blue Spruce Health was thrilled to support the event as an underwriter sponsor. Dr. Malik had a blast meeting so many local business owners and sharing how our Direct Primary Care model is giving Vermont employers a better, healthcare-independent option for their teams. 🌲🤝

“I work for you—not the insurance company.” 🩺❌

Dr. Malik recently sat down with the Uninsured by Choice Podcast to talk about why doctors are walking away from the traditional insurance system.

In this episode, he breaks down the hard truths about "factory medicine" and explains why Direct Primary Care (DPC) is the ultimate solution for both patients and providers.

What you’ll hear:
- Care Over Codes: Why we cut out the middleman to offer unhurried 30-to-60-minute visits and 24/7 direct access.
- True Accountability: How DPC brings back real relationship-based care over administrative paperwork.
- Community First: How this model is actively revitalizing healthcare in Newport, St. J, and Williston.

Whether you're a member or a local business owner looking for better employee health options, this conversation is a must-watch.
