FAQ

  • What is a Direct Primary Care Clinic?
    A: A Direct Primary Care (DPC) clinic, such as Freedom Clinics of America, operates on a membership-based model where patients pay a monthly fee for access to a range of healthcare services. Unlike traditional healthcare setups that primarily rely on insurance reimbursements, DPC clinics emphasize a direct financial relationship between the patient and the healthcare provider, giving the patient a more personalized, accessible, and cost-effective healthcare model that prioritizes their overall well-being. The FCA model provides several key benefits: 1. Personalized Care: Patients receive more time with their doctors, fostering a stronger patient-provider relationship. This allows for more individualized attention and a tailored approach to each patient's healthcare needs. 2. Cost Transparency: By eliminating the middleman (insurance companies), patients know exactly what they are paying, leading to more predictable and often lower healthcare costs. There are no copays, deductibles, or hidden fees. 3. Improved Access: Membership in Freedom Clinics of America ensures quicker and more convenient access to healthcare services. This includes same-day or next-day appointments, virtual consultations, and extended office visits. 4. Comprehensive Services: The monthly fee typically covers a wide range of services such as preventive care, chronic disease management, basic procedures, and discounted lab fees and prescriptions, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive care without the worry of additional costs.
  • Why doesn't Freedom Clinics of America take insurance for their direct primary care services?
    A: Freedom Clinics of America, like many DPC providers, chooses not to take insurance to offer a more straightforward and affordable healthcare experience. By eliminating the middleman, our providers can focus directly on patient care, significantly reducing administrative costs and complexities. This model allows us to provide personalized, high-quality care and transparency in pricing. For a flat monthly fee, patients can access a wide range of services like comprehensive health evaluations, routine check-ups, and direct communication with their doctor, all without the worry of copays, deductibles, or insurance claim denials. This approach prioritizes the doctor-patient relationship and ensures that healthcare decisions are made collaboratively and without the constraints often imposed by insurance companies. Ultimately, our goal is to make healthcare accessible, straightforward, and patient-centric.
