Our DPC practice offers comprehensive primary care services through a simple monthly membership fee—no insurance paperwork, no surprise fees, just quality health care when you need it.
As your direct primary care Utah provider, we focus on preventive care, extended visit times, and direct access to your primary care physician. Our DPC membership includes unlimited primary care visits, care coordination with specialists and hospitals, and 24/7 access to our experienced physicians and providers.
What Is Direct Primary Care?
Direct primary care (DPC) is an innovative healthcare model where patients pay a monthly membership fee directly to their primary care provider, eliminating traditional health insurance for routine primary care services. This DPC model means:
- Transparent monthly fee with no additional visit fees
- No insurance paperwork or claim forms
- Same-day or next-day appointments
- Extended time with your primary care provider
- Comprehensive primary care services included
- Direct communication with your physician
Our direct primary care practice operates independently from insurance companies, allowing our providers to focus entirely on your health and wellness. Many patients pair their DPC membership with high-deductible health plans or coverage through Medicare, Medicaid, or the Affordable Care Act exchange for additional protection.

Understanding DPC Membership Fees
Our direct primary care Utah practice offers straightforward pricing through a monthly membership fee. Unlike traditional practice models with unpredictable costs and insurance paperwork, you'll know exactly what you're paying each month for comprehensive primary care services. The monthly fee includes unlimited primary care visits, extended appointments, direct provider access, basic lab work, and care coordination—all without additional fees or insurance hassles. Many individuals, families, and employers find that our DPC membership provides better health care access at a lower overall cost than traditional insurance-based care.
Direct Primary Care and Health Insurance
DPC membership is not health insurance—it’s a direct relationship with your primary care provider. Many of our patients combine their direct primary care membership with:
- High-deductible health plans for catastrophic coverage
- Employer-sponsored insurance for hospital and specialist care
- Medicare or Medicaid for additional coverage
- Health sharing plans or exchange coverage
This combination provides comprehensive health care while avoiding insurance paperwork for routine primary care services. Under the Affordable Care Act, DPC arrangements are recognized as legitimate healthcare, and many consumers find better access and service with this model.
