Episode 46: Direct Primary Care - A better healthcare model

The Dr. is making the transition from working for a large hospital system to private practice in a fast growing healthcare model.  It’s called ”Direct Primary Care” (DPC) because the relationship between Dr. and patient is exactly that - direct.  There’s no insurance carrier or corporate bureaucracy in the way and that allows for a much better healthcare experience.  Plus, instead of having 1,500 - 3,000 patients, Dr. Ascanio will have a maximum of 600 to focus all her attention on.  This episode explores what led the Dr. to make the change to DPC and why patients will benefit.
