The many health insurance discussions generally do not include any mention of direct primary care (DPC).
The payment scheme in DPC is like a cable TV or cellphone bill: a monthly flat fee that is not connected to how much you use the service.
The model is already in use in our region.
Dr. Jill Friesen in Redding operates a DPC practice, as does Dr. Phillipp Olshausen in Medford. Dr. Olshausen and Dr. Friesen's office manager, Mary Brace, join us to talk about the day-to-day business of their medical practices.
