Direct care is a new
model of health care
delivery.
We’ve seen first-hand the pressures of the traditional fee-for-service healthcare model. It prioritizes volume. This results in doctors who don’t always have adequate time to provide the best and right care for their patients. The doctor is often shielded from the real cost for their patients. For example, the doctor may not know that the medication prescribed can result in a debilitating financial blow to the patient.
Patients often have to wait weeks to be seen and hours in the waiting room, just to spend, on average, less than 7 minutes in the exam room. Tests and labs are often run multiple times, at the expense of the patient, because providers aren’t always coordinating.
We got into this business to help people, and with Remedy Health, we get to do exactly that – every single day.
