The Benefits of Concierge Medicine
Seeing a concierge medical provider means getting personalized care. By refocusing my practice to providing concierge medicine, I can focus on individualized patient care and direct family care instead of scrambling to fit in the maximum number of patients possible during a day.
Some of the many benefits to expect from concierge medicine are listed below.
Comprehensive Care
Seeing a concierge providerr doesn’t limit your medical care; it improves it. Balanced Healthcare offers complete annual health assessments and physical exams.
Our other services include the following:
- Routine office visits
- Chronic disease management (asthma, allergies, blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, hormone imbalances, PrEP, medication management, and more)
- Women’s health (menopause, pregnancy testing, family planning, birth control, pap smears, and breast exam)
- Mental health care for depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders
- Consultations for smoking cessation and stress management
- Medical weight loss including individualized exercise and nutrition plans
- Urgent care (injury and illness)
- Pre-op clearance
- Sports medicine
- Sports physicals
Comprehensive care means just that: direct family care for every member of the family, for all of your health concerns.
Office Visits That Fit Your Schedule
With traditional care models, you may have to wait several days or even weeks for an appointment when you or one of your family members starts showing symptoms of illness. And when you do get an appointment, it’s at the physician’s convenience. It may be necessary to cancel plans, take off time from work or take kids out of school.
With Balanced Healthcare, same-day and next-day appointments are always an option. Making access to healthcare convenient is just one of the many things we do differently. Once in the office, you’ll never spend an hour waiting for your appointment. In fact, there is no waiting room!
Minor In-Office Labs and Procedures
Traveling to different clinics for testing or treatment can feel like a major inconvenience when you're not feeling well. All you want to do is feel better.
Not every issue can be handled in our offices, but many can. We make the treatment of minor issues easier by offering the following procedures and labs in-office:
- Acute illnesses (strep throat, UTI, STIs, ear infections, sprains, and more)
- Dermatology (removal of warts, skin biopsies, and cryotherapy)
- Ear lavage to remove ear wax buildup
- EKGs and Spirometry
- Nebulizer treatments
- Urgent care for injury and illness
- Blood sugar testing
- IV fluids for dehydration
- Infection treatment (abscess incision and drainage, infected toenail removal, animal bites)
- Wound repair and wound care
Concierge medicine can save you the time and trouble of going to an urgent care or the emergency room or driving from lab to lab to get the care you need.
Discounted Medications
The high cost of prescription medications makes it difficult for some people to take care of their health the way they should. At Balanced Healthcare, some in-house medications are available at wholesale prices.
If you’re having trouble paying for some of your prescription medications, talk to us about it. We will help you find the medications you need at a more affordable price.
Discounted Laboratory Testing
By partnering with local labs, we provide our clients with significant discounts on many of the most common labs and diagnostic tests.
Access to Discounted Radiology Testing
Balanced Healthcare provides direct primary care patients with discounts on a number of radiology tests from local imaging facilities. Some of our available discounts include X-rays, MRIs, CTs, ultrasounds, and mammography.
Coordination with Specialists
When your care requires the expertise of a medical specialist, we will personally help to expedite the process of scheduling an appointment. As your direct primary care provider, I will also continue to collaborate with the specialist and stay informed about every stage of your care.
Who Can Benefit from Concierge Medicine?
It is challenging to accept that a new model of medical care could be right for you. After all, we all grew up getting our healthcare the same way. But seeing a concierge medical provider isn’t just for celebrities or people with a rare illness. It’s for everyone who has become frustrated with the traditional healthcare system.
If you’ve had it with trying to find a primary care physician who you feel comfortable with and who isn’t always too busy to see you, concierge medicine may be a perfect fit.
Other reasons to consider Balanced Healthcare include:
- You want more control of your healthcare
- You want to stay ahead of chronic illness, not just manage symptoms when they arise
- Your insurance deductibles and copays are too high
- Your health issues require frequent visits to urgent care
- You need help establishing a healthier lifestyle
- Your schedule makes it difficult to make traditional office visits
Concierge medicine at Balanced Healthcare is a good fit for any person who wants a more personalized relationship with their medical provider. If you feel your doctor doesn’t listen or take the time to address your concerns, or if you’re tired of wasting time in a waiting room, we’re here to tell you there is a better way.
Call Balanced Healthcare and learn more about everything concierge medical care has to offer and how you and your family can benefit from this innovative model.
Concierge Medicine Pricing
Some people are concerned that receiving direct family care or personal care from a concierge doctor, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner will be too costly. At Balanced Healthcare, pricing is always transparent. By paying a monthly fee, you’ll never have to be concerned that making a doctor’s appointment will create a financial hardship.
For families and individuals, concierge medical services with Cora begin at as little as $25 a month. Corporate packages are also available. Not working with insurance companies helps us keep prices down and allows us to provide each patient with the care you need, not just the care an insurance provider will approve.
What Makes Balanced Healthcare Special?
Balanced Healthcare patients have direct and easy access to their medical provider wherever they are. I even give patients my cell phone number to make communication easier. When you receive care from Balanced Healthcare, you are encouraged to text, call, or email whenever you have a problem or a question about your healthcare management.
We also offer unlimited in-person visits. There are no additional costs if your condition requires several follow-ups or if your child happens to have a clumsy month on the playground.
Our team’s commitment to providing the best possible personalized healthcare is what sets us apart from other care providers. We make it easy to schedule appointments when you need them and promise to never keep you waiting.
