Easier Access to Direct Primary Care
This act aims to make direct primary care more accessible by exempting it from health insurance regulations. This means citizens can enter into direct agreements with doctors, paying a set fee, without needing traditional insurance for these services. This could change how people access primary healthcare and manage their medical expenses.
Key points
Direct primary care will not be regulated as health insurance, potentially simplifying access to doctors.
Agreements with doctors must be in writing and clearly state services and fees, ensuring transparency for patients.
Patients will pay doctors directly, for example, a monthly retainer or per visit, without an insurer's involvement.
