Emerald Health Direct Primary Care

Hassle-free Primary Care, no insurance required

Some of our patients have no insurance.
Some have insurance but rarely use it because of high deductibles.
All of them wanted a doctor they could actually access.

Why would I join if I already have insurance?

Many patients still join even with insurance because insurance mostly covers catastrophic events and hospital care, not day-to-day access to a doctor.

With Direct Primary Care:

  • you don’t wait weeks for an appointment

  • you can ask questions without scheduling a visit

  • medication and chronic issues are managed early

  • you avoid urgent care and ER visits

Most members end up using insurance less, not more.

What you are actually paying for

You aren't paying for a certain number of visits.

You're paying for:

  • having a doctor available when something starts

  • guidance before problems worsen

  • medication adjustments without appointments

  • help deciding if something needs urgent care

  • someone who already knows your history

Many months you may not need an in-person visit. That's great! Hopefully that's because you are feeling good, which is exactly what we want.

Your membership means you can contact your doctor anytime, not that you must come monthly.

Not ready to join yet?

That’s completely normal.

You can schedule a one-time visit first.

This visit is designed for people who:

  • want a second opinion

  • have lab results they don’t understand

  • have a health concern but no insurance

  • want to see how our office works before joining

Cost for one time visit: $85

If you decide to join afterward, we apply that visit toward your enrollment. You don't pay the enrollment fee twice.

This lets you try the practice without committing.
