True North Direct Primary Care

05/29/2024

Such a spot-on description of the US Health Care system! Direct Primary Care provides a breath of fresh air. It's revolutionary - having a personal physician who knows you and advocates for you with complete transparency and simplicity. For a known monthly membership fee you you can have 80-90% of your healthcare needs addressed just with your personal primary care physician and limit your interaction with insurance companies, utilizing them for only unexpected expenses like ER visits, hospitalizations, surgeries and specialist visits. That's peace of mind!

Did you know that 1 in 10 people around the world don’t
have clean water close to home? We can help change that
together! Will you join our team for World Vision’s Global
6K for Water this May?

It’s going to be an incredible event as we walk around Eagle Point Lake in Lake Elmo Park Reserve. This 6 kilometers hike equals the average distance women and children in the developing world walk to get to a water source which may not even be clean. Every step you take is one they won’t have to!

Join our team here: https://global6k.worldvision.org/team/37738

Due to a generous donor, every registration now through Monday, May 13 will empower 2 people in need with lasting access to clean water. Also, this is the last day to sign up and guarantee you receive a t-shirt in time for the event.

Primary Care has been undervalued and unappreciated for too long and it's breaking our healthcare system. What if every one had a doctor who knew them and took the time to listen to their concerns and values regarding their health?

As the backbone of the health care system, primary care doctors need more resources and greater support from policymakers

Did you know that the cost of a medication is often much higher when you use your insurance compared to paying by cash?

Most of our patients are shocked when they learn how much they can save by paying cash for their medications, rather than using the traditional route of applying their insurance and paying what they felt was a ‘small copay’.

The Payzen report released yesterday further details the strain of the cost of our healthcare system on everyday businesses and families. "Since 2013, the average family healthcare premium has increased 47% and deductibles have increased 10%.... 61% of respondents are worried about paying utilities, 59% are concerned about paying rent and 59% are nervous about affording gasoline and food. The Payzen report found that almost three-quarters of respondents (68%) reported increased stress about missing an appointment, 49% said the health problem they put off treating got worse as a result and 29% said they experienced negative effects on their job performance or career progression."

How has this impacted your family or business?

Direct Primary Care provides an affordable alternative to offset high cost of care. Removing insurance from primary care improves health and simplifies care. With easy access to a physician, transparent pricing and significantly discounted labs/medical imaging, Direct Primary Care members can have peace of mind addressing health concerns before they get out of hand. Direct Primary Care members overall have 41% less hospitalizations and Emergency Room visits. This is making an impact on individuals, families and businesses!
