What is Concierge Medicine?

Concierge medicine is a prearranged agreement between a physician and the patient, where the patient will pay a retainer or annual fee to belong to a practice to cover services not covered by usual insurance company fees. It began gaining popularity in the late 1990’s and according to the Physicians Foundation. About 10 percent of private practice owners will convert to a concierge model. The concept of concierge medicine results in positive outcomes for both the physician and the patient. The benefit is that the physician cares for fewer patients, 50-1,000 vs. a non-concierge physician that may have as many as 4,000 patients. The lighter patient caseload means that patients will have quick and easy access to care that is more personal and to their physician, including phone or email access on evenings and weekends. Concierge medical practices differ on fee structures and services offered; some accept Medicare or traditional health insurance, others work on a cash only basis.

DIRECT PRIMARY CARE MODEL

Direct Primary Care Model: With deductibles now typically starting at $5,000 before a penny is paid and then another $3-5,000 in “co-insurance”, it seems impossible to reasonably priced medical care until you pay those first. The problem is, going in to see a physician, whether it be a specialist or primary care, your Insurance pricing is expensive! We offer a new solution! No need to meet deductibles or out-of-pocket co-insurance expenses, pay us directly and get quality, face-to-face, one-on-one care. We also help to guide you to less expensive medications, imaging, lab tests, outpatient surgery, etc.

We coordinate your care with your other physicians and keep you in the driver’s seat and in control of your healthcare

In addition we also have a Free Standing Lab Draw Center! We offer Pre Laboratory Consultations for a Small Fee  with Dr Hudes to determine what labs you would benefit from having drawn or you can feel free to just choose what labs you are  wanting and pay “per lab test” to have them drawn.
