Mountain Sage "Direct Primary Care"
01/03/2018
We have a very exciting announcement that has been 2+ years in the making. Mountain Sage Family Clinic will now be offering Memberships for “Direct Primary Care”. We first started talking to the Wyoming Department of Insurance a little over 2 years ago, asking if this was possible. While this is not insurance, we wanted to offer our patients with high deductibles or no insurance, an option that was affordable and would encourage them to seek health care when necessary. Too often patients wait until a health issue becomes serious, requiring a longer than necessary recovery.
This past legislative session a change in rules was passed that allows this type of service. We are the third practice in Wyoming to offer this health care option.
In a nutshell how “Direct Primary Care” works is a patient pays a monthly or annual membership, based on age. The membership allows the patient to be seen at Mountain Sage Family Clinic or via telephone or telehealth, anytime they need services. They can purchase medications and labs (per predetermined lists) at deep discounts, which is almost always cheaper than a copay. The membership includes any services we offer in our clinic including procedures and stitches. Call us at the office (307) 455-2807
