Will I still need to pay for insurance when I start using your Direct Primary Care Hendersonville TN Plan?
You should still maintain an appropriate insurance plan, even if only minimally, that will provide in the case of an emergency medical condition. This may help lower your monthly premium costs since you will not be using your insurance for your basic medical needs. You may also consider signing up with a medical sharing company like Liberty Direct, potentially saving you hundreds each month. Many of these share companies will even pay your monthly DPC fees for you. Even as a member of Rapha Family Wellness, you should consult a health insurance expert to be sure you have the right coverage for you and your family.
Are there any contracts involved?
Yes, you will be required to sign a contract with our office, but it can be cancelled anytime with a 24 hour notice.
Can you help with employee health care?
While we do not offer any insurance policy coverage, we can provide special membership pricing so that you, as a business owner, can offer extra benefits and access to care to your employees.
