Anchor Direct Primary Care

Matthew Rensberry, MD, MBA

The common patient experience:

  • No appointment is immediately available when needed
  • Once scheduled, there is a long wait in the waiting room
  • Once in the appointment, there is not enough time to get through everything
  • After the appointment, there are still unanswered questions
  • Though insured, until they meet their deductible, they will still pay full price for the appointment ($160+)

What this leads to:

These experiences lead to Poor Quality of Care due to:

  • Doctor visit avoidance until things "get really bad"
  • Patient concerns over unknown costs
  • Lack of appointment time for adequate history, physical, diagnosis, or explanations
  • Poor access to care, as doctors are encouraged to see more patients in a day with less time for each patient

A better way for Primary Care: Direct Primary Care (DPC)!

  • DPC clinics partner directly with the patient re-aligning incentives to be in the best interest of the patient. Anchor DPC uses a membership model because we are convinced this is the best way to provide high quality medical care.
  • A DPC practice is patient focused, not problem focused. DPC clinicians work to keep the patient healthy, minimizing more invasive, potentially harmful, and expensive procedures.
  • DPC clinics help patients avoid unnecessary trips to the Emregency Room or Urgent Care.

Insurance questions

  • We recommend patients have health insurance to cover health needs not included with Anchor DPC membership
  • DPC pairs well with a high deductible health plan for health insurance for most people

Direct primary care is not insurance.

What about Medicare, Medicaid, etc?

We see people with all types of insurance including Medicaid and Medicare at Anchor DPC!

Anchor DPC accepts all patients, regardless of insurance status (including uninsured)

Inpatient/Specialits/Hospital Care

Should a patient need a specialist, surgery, or inpatient care, we will help fasciliate navigation within the healthcare network.

They will bill the health insurance.

Pre-conditions

There are no pre-existing condition exclusions and there are no increases in the membership fee based upon prior health history.
