Employers can benefit from Direct Primary Care too.
Can’t afford to provide health insurance for your employees? Trouble retaining employees?
Several local employers have partnered with us to provide their employees membership in our practice, giving them the comfort and convenience of great access to their own primary care physician at a low cost to the employer.
While a membership with our practice is not insurance, with better access to their primary care physician, studies have shown DPC reduces ER visits, expensive tests and consults, not to mention employee missed time from work.
Local and regional brokers and third party administrators such as: George Claasen of Class Insurance, Joel Allumbaugh of Allumbaugh Agency and Jim Ward of Patient Advocates have all helped employers pair Direct Primary Care with insurance or partially self-insured packages that can cover hospital and other medical care.
More recently, we've joined with other New England Direct Primary Care Alliance practices to allow larger and regional employers to offer Direct Primary Care to employees in multiple locations in Maine and New England. Maine Energy Marketing Association member businesses now have this available through their new health plan.
For more information about adding Direct Primary Care memberships for your employees, give us a call or fill out the form below and we’ll be happy to get in touch with you directly.
