Urgent Care Costs: From PA Physician in DPC Practice
New Direct Primary Care Patient Case Study:
It was a same day visit for this very ill 58 year old new patient...
She required medication and a chest xray.
We prorated her 1st month's membership (as we always do for our new patients who sign up after the 1st of the month) and saw her THAT DAY IN THE OFFICE.
Her cost at Pennsylvania based Direct Primary Care Doctor's office"
• $48.51 Chest X-ray
• $16.62 medications
• $69.64 Membership (prorated 1st month's membership)
TOTAL - $134.77 !!
Compare -
Urgent Care Appointment with a Chest X-ray (CXR) and meds would have cost HUNDREDS of DOLLARS!
Hospital Emergency Room (ER) with CXR, meds would have cost THOUSANDS of Dollars!
ANOTHER ER/URGENT CARE visit avoided! Save your DEDUCTIBLE DOLLARS!
