Direct Primary Care

Health insurance for catastrophe. Foundations for everything in between.

Direct Primary Care pulls routine care back out of the insurance system. Members pay a flat monthly fee for unhurried visits, direct access to their doctor, and in-office procedures with no copays. Keep your insurance for what it's really for.

What is direct primary care?

Imagine if your car insurance paid for oil changes.

Health insurance was designed for catastrophe — big expenses you can't absorb. Somewhere along the way, we started running routine care through it too, and the price of routine care exploded.

Direct Primary Care pulls primary care back out. Keep your insurance for the collisions. Pay us a flat monthly fee for everything in between. Most households come out well ahead — and they get back something money can't usually buy: a doctor who actually knows them.

Car insurance ↔ Health insurance

You'd never run an oil change through your auto policy. Running a strep test through health insurance works the same way — except we've normalized it.

How it fits with what you have

Five ways our members handle coverage.

Foundations is not insurance. It replaces the primary care piece of your existing setup — not the catastrophic side. Here are the five most common ways our members combine Foundations with whatever else they have in place.

Most common
DPC + Employer Insurance
Keep your employer plan for hospital, surgery, and major imaging. Add Foundations for primary care. Most members find their employer plan still covers what it should — they just don't use it for the small stuff anymore.
Bronze + DPC
DPC + ACA Marketplace
Pick a high-deductible bronze plan from healthcare.gov. Pair it with Foundations. Often less expensive overall than a richer plan — because you'll never hit the deductible for routine care, the lower premium is real savings.
Increasingly popular
DPC + Healthcare Sharing
Christian healthcare-sharing programs (Samaritan, MediShare, Christian Healthcare Ministries, Zion HealthShare) cover catastrophic costs at a lower monthly share than traditional insurance. Pair with Foundations for primary care — a common combination for many of our members.
See how each one pairs with Foundations
For 65+
DPC + Medicare
Foundations does not bill Medicare. Members 65+ keep Medicare for hospital, specialist, and imaging coverage and pay Foundations directly for primary care. There's a specific opt-out paperwork process we walk you through at enrollment.
Self-insured
DPC alone (self-insured)
Some members go without traditional insurance, relying on Foundations for primary care plus our negotiated cash-pay rates for imaging and labs. Generally fits younger, healthier members who'd rather self-fund the rare catastrophic risk. Talk it over with us before you choose this route.
A note on HSAs. Under current IRS rules, monthly DPC fees are not eligible for HSA reimbursement. The bipartisan Primary Care Enhancement Act would change this — and may pass in coming years — but as of today, plan your HSA usage accordingly. We're happy to walk through the math at your tour visit.
Member benefits

Everything your primary care doctor used to do — plus everything they should.

No deductibles. No copays. No billing department in the middle. 85–90% of what typical healthcare sends you elsewhere for, we handle right here.

Personalized care, by name

No medical record numbers. No feeling like a line item. Your doctor knows your history, your family, and what matters to you.

30–60 minute visits

The US average is under 12 minutes face-to-face. Here, visits take the time they need — whether that's a quick check or an hour to untangle something complex.

Text, call, video, or email

Direct access to Dr. Emily via secure text, phone, video, or the HIPAA-compliant portal. Sick on vacation? Let's handle it remotely.

Same-day & next-day visits

Our schedule has room for urgent needs because we keep visits unhurried — no double-booking, no shoehorning you in. Most issues get handled today; the rest get a same-day appointment.

Urgent care after hours & weekends

For a cut lip, sudden fever, or "is this pneumonia" — we're reachable most of the time, keeping you out of the urgent care line.

Annual comprehensive physical

Fitted to you, not a billing code. A full wellness lab panel is less than $30 for most patients.

Procedures included

EKGs, strep tests, pregnancy tests, in-office urine tests, basic wound care: $0 for members. Pap smears, biopsies, excisions, stitches: often 80% less than market.

Wholesale labs & medications

Negotiated directly with labs and dispensed at cost. Bloodwork for a few dollars, generics at pass-through pricing. Saves most members hundreds a year.

Yoga & manual therapy on-site

Members get access to exclusive yoga and craniosacral/manual therapy sessions with our licensed OT — rare in a primary-care setting.

What your membership fee covers

One monthly rate. No "also billing you for that".

These are standard across every membership tier. Additional services are available at heavily-discounted cash prices.

What proactive care looks like across a lifetime.

Hover or tap a life stage to see the preventive touchpoints we plan for at that age. Every member's plan is personalized — these are the conversations we want to have on schedule, not as catch-up.

These are general preventive-care touchpoints. Your specific recommendations depend on family history, current health, and your conversations with Dr. McLaurin — not a chart.
