Expand Direct Primary Care Options

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a popular health care model in which patients pay a flat, monthly fee directly to a doctor for primary care, like a Netflix or gym membership but for your primary care. DPC is price transparent and lowers costs by removing middlemen who stand in between the patients and their doctor. We can make South Carolina’s health care market more expansive by making DPC eligible for capitated payments such as PPO and EPO health insurance arrangements.
