UNDERSTANDING DPC

Subscription-based care — not insurance

Direct Primary Care is a membership model where patients pay a flat monthly fee directly to their doctor. No insurance claims, no copays, no prior authorizations. Just a direct relationship between you and your patients.

Flat monthly membership fee

Patients pay you directly — no insurance middleman

No insurance billing or coding

DPC VAs do not handle insurance verification, claims, or medical coding

Unlimited direct access

Same-day appointments, direct messaging, and telehealth included

Small, focused patient panels

Doctors typically serve 300–600 patients instead of 2,000+

BUSINESS STARTER PACKAGE

From big clinic to your own practice

90% of DPC doctors come from large clinic settings. You know medicine — but launching a private practice is a different skill set. We bridge that gap with a structured setup package before transitioning you to full ongoing support.

PHASE 1

Launch Your Practice

We set up the operational foundation of your DPC practice from scratch — so you can open your doors with everything in place.

  • Phone system setup and call routing
  • Membership platform configuration (Hint Health, Atlas.md, etc.)
  • Patient intake forms and communication workflows
  • Scheduling system and appointment templates
  • Administrative processes and documentation standards
PHASE 2

Run Day-to-Day Operations

Once you're set up, our virtual assistants handle the daily workload so you stay focused on patients — not paperwork.

  • Answering phones and patient messages
  • Membership onboarding, renewals, and inquiries
  • Appointment scheduling and reminders
  • Chart prep and administrative documentation
  • Telehealth coordination and follow-up
