Direct Primary Care (DPC) is Not What You Think

In this episode I'm talking about what direct primary care (DPC) is and isn't, including many of the popular misconceptions both physicians and patients have about. The episode includes

- how DPC is different from concierge medicine
- actual data on the outcomes, costs and benefits for patients & doctors
- the NUMBERS (average monthly fee, average panels sizes, time to fill a practice)
- a discussion on the ethics of DPC in a time of PCP shortages
