The cost, and honestly the value, of healthcare has been problematic for many. Dr. Karley Scoles is the owner at FortisDirect Primary Care in the Chippewa Valley and she comes on this episode to discuss her direct-pay practice. Sheexplains what direct-pay medical care is, why she left the traditional healthcare model and the benefits both patients AND providers are finding with the increase in practices like these. This is still traditional medicine, but with a different payment structure. She also shares insight into the important habits she encourages all of her patients to follow to increase their health. From physical activities to food choices. They also touch on the legal angle of healthcare, including touchy topics like medical decisions. #directprimarycare #directpayhealthcare #healthcarepodcast #eauclairewi #chippewavalley #wisconsinpodcast #primarycare #affordablehealthcare
