They're confused, stressed, and feel trapped. Healthcare should not be this way. If you’re navigating open enrollment and want to break free from the high-deductible trap, consider the DPC difference with no surprise costs or hurdles.

U.S. healthcare is strictly business. Healthcare organizes doctors and patients into a system where that relationship can be financially exploited and as much money extracted as often as possible by hospitals, clinics, health insurers, the pharmaceutical industry, and medical device manufacturers. The adversarial patient-doctor relationship is maintained by overworking and under-supporting doctors both with regard to heaping administrative burden/caseloads on them and limiting how much help they can actually offer patients. Who pays the price of these burned-out doctors? The patients. Yesterday, Paul Thomas, M.D. hosted Dave Richter (owner of Alpino Detroit), Danielle Sanders (owner of Soul On Ice), and Jonathon Trionfi (Broker at Plante Moran) at Plum's Royal Oak office. They exchanged great conversations and talked about business, DPC, and more. We'll share more on this soon! The one thing they all the guests agreed on when it comes to DPC? The convenience of same or next-day appointments and building real relationships with their doctor—not the rushed, in-and-out visits of traditional healthcare. The truth is, our healthcare system wasn’t designed to put patients first—it was built to maximize profits. DPC is flipping the script, giving people direct access to their doctors and affordable care. It’s time we all expect better from healthcare system. #PlumHealth #DirectPrimaryCare #DPC #Healthcare #HealthcareCrisis #DirectPrimaryCare #HealthcareReform #PatientCare #AccessibleHealthcare #EmployeeBenefits #HealthcareInnovation #PrimaryCare #BusinessHealthcare #Brokers
