We’re seeing ever-growing amounts of GPs shifting from their practice to private. But it’s not only GPs making a move, it’s patients too. In 2022, half a million additional people took on private health insurance. Although this is additional money out of their pocket, many would see it as an easy route to access a GP. That’s not always the case. Even within private care, waiting lists are long and with many patients jumping ship, demand will increase and the advantages of paying privately could easily vanish.

We have been having great discussion about Direct Primary Care on my page. I want to share a quick thread based on a question from Kaitlin Herzog, PT, DPT, USAW1 She asked if patients still pay insurance premiums plus a dpc membership or is pairing DPC with a Healthshare is better. See my response!: DPC + Healthshare is optimal! This helps you keep out of pocket costs low for your primary care, and protects your access to catastrophic care. Most healthshare companies are gaining trust and reputation, but there still is a slight risk in joining one, as they are not regulated by the insurance industry. DPC also pairs fairly well with high-deductible health plans. Most of my patients have a high deductible plan and use their HSA/FSA funds for their membership fees. I still think health insurance is important for catastrophic care, but our model of health insurance in the US does not allow for catastrophic-only plans. #dpc #directprimarycare #primarycare #healthinsurance
