Better care with direct primary care (DPC)

Highlights of becoming a patient:

  • Same-day or next day appointments

  • Longer appointments

  • Direct access to Dr. Gagnon via phone, text, and video

  • After-hours and weekend access for urgent issues

  • In-office lab and pharmacy services at wholesale cost

Research shows that DPC has:

  • Incentive for providers to keep focus on preventive medicine and maintaining health

  • Reductions in unnecessary lab testing, imaging, and procedures

  • Improved health outcomes and therefore a healthier, more productive workforce

Healthy employees miss less work

When a Better Health DPC patient is sick, Dr. Gagnon can often handle it via phone, text, or video without the need for an in-person visit. Contrast this against the incentive structure in a typical fee-for-service practice, in which an in-person visit is almost always required for billing. The average travel time alone to a doctor’s appointment is 37 minutes. Direct Primary Care increases ACCESS to care which can make all the difference.
