Membership Benefits

Direct Primary Care BenefitsOptimum Direct Care offers individuals and families an innovative way to receive comprehensive health care services. As a membership-based medical practice with a patient-first culture, we’ve taken insurance companies completely out of the equation, eliminating the coverage uncertainties, copays, deductibles, and claim submission requirements that go along with them. Instead, for a set monthly membership fee, we offer unlimited direct primary care (DPC) services and unrestricted access to Dr. Toni “Muzzi” Muzzonigro, our board-certified family practice physician.

Benefits of DPC Membership

As an alternative to the bureaucratic fee-for-service health care model, a direct primary care practice offers a more relaxed and streamlined health care experience for patients. Here’s how:

  • Patients have unrestricted access to their primary care physician whenever necessary, for whatever amount of time is appropriate, and in whichever way is most convenient – an office visit or a telemedicine consultation via voice, video conferencing, or SMS text.
  • Unlike a traditional primary care provider, a DPC practice does not rely on insurance reimbursement for sustainability. Therefore, there is no need to squeeze in an unreasonably high number of patients every day, or process volumes of paperwork to justify patient interactions to an insurance company. This leaves physicians with more time to devote to what they do best – practice medicine.
  • Physicians can be more creative in meeting their patients’ needs. There is no need to “check the boxes” on insurer-designed forms listing numerous tasks that have little or nothing to do with improving a patient’s long-term health.
  • Physicians are able to discuss and address multiple health issues during a single consultation. There is no pressure from an insurer to require a separate appointment – and receive a separate copay – for every single question or ailment a patient has.
  • Physicians are able to truly get to know their patients. The resulting doctor-patient familiarity reduces the need for urgent care and emergency room visits and ultimately improves health outcomes.
  • Patients know ahead of time exactly how much their health care will cost. Instead of paying separately for each appointment, test, procedure, and treatment, DPC patients pay a set monthly membership fee.

If you’ve grown tired of the rushed and impersonal nature of the health care status quo, DPC may be the right health care choice for you.

“I never imagined Dr. Muzzi existed before I found her. Now, I can’t picture a future of my healthcare without her. If the traditional Doctor / Patient relationship makes you feel like you’re stuck in I4 traffic (frustrated & certain no one will ever fix it) and you want to change that, you’re in the right place. ”

“When I left my corporate job to start my own business, one of many new challenges was finding quality health care. When I was starting to look for a new Primary Care Doctor, a peer recommended Direct Primary Care. I did some research and found Dr. Muzzi. In the years leading up to finding Dr. Muzzi, the way I think about my health evolved to fit a more modern view of health and science with a focus on overall wellness and preventative medicine. I was surprised and delighted on my first visit to find Dr. Muzzi not only shared this view, but was practicing medicine in this way. Focusing on my overall wellness rather than treating symptoms has improved my quality of life and undoubtedly add quality years to my life. Dr. Muzzi knows me. She knows what I do for work, where I travel, sports and activities, our pets, what I wear to Burning Man and even knows my Dad (who approves!). Taken at face value, this may seem like a cute note to show that we’re friendly. But this depth of knowledge is organically woven into the care she provides every time we speak and my health is better for it. I never imagined Dr. Muzzi existed before I found her. Now, I can’t picture a future of my healthcare without her. If the traditional Doctor / Patient relationship makes you feel like you’re stuck in I4 traffic (frustrated & certain no one will ever fix it) and you want to change that, you’re in the right place.”
