NPR Special on DPC

Check out this special by NPR on Direct Primary Care! It thoroughly discusses the Direct Care model, including the benefits, like steeply reduced medications, affordable monthly fees, and on-demand access to their provider for no extra cost. It also discusses the benefits for primary care doctors, who are able to spend 30-60 minutes a visit (pretty unheard of in the fee-for-service model) and only have around 600 patients (as opposed to the normal number, which is sometimes 2000+). For some primary care doctors, Direct Primary Care could be a more holistic way to practice, and for some patients, DPC is an ideal way to receive primary care. I found this incredibly interesting and would absolutely give it a listen!
