Elevated Health | Direct Primary Care in Huntington Beach

What is Direct Primary Care?

As a whole, Direct Primary Care is a healthcare model that eliminates copays and deductibles, providing you with unparalleled convenience, reduced wait times, and same-day visits. This means you have direct access to your doctor whenever you need it, without any financial barriers. Under the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, the patient (you) receives comprehensive primary health care directly from their DPC physician. The patient pays for this care through a monthly fee, paid directly to Elevated Health. Because DPC practices do not participate in any insurance or plans, the providers are

Do i still need insurance?

No, we do not require it for membership. We recommend that you do have insurance to comply with Federal Law. Elevated Health does not replace insurance, and ideally we encourage our patients to carry a high deductible or major medical plan or a plan with a health savings account, thereby ensuring financial help should hospitalization or referral to a specialist be necessary. You should consult with your insurance provider to help you find a plan that works best with our medical model and that will meet your specific needs. Alternatively, we specialize in patients that are part of healthsharing

How can I save on insurance by being a patient of Elevated Health?

Many times patients purchase expensive “Cadillac” plans that require little or no co-pay and that cover all lab costs and prescription costs. However, with Elevated Health your monthly fee covers all office visits and there are no copays. Plus, our patients have access to wholesale medications and labs sometimes at a 90% discount! Our patients may find it worthwhile to change from a “Cadillac” health insurance plan to a basic health insurance plan to save money.

What does the membership fee cover?

The fee covers excellent primary care through unlimited office visits, annual wellness exams, well-child exams, sports physicals, school physicals, basic office procedures, treatment of acute illness or minor injuries and 24/7/365 access to your doctor, all with no wait times in the office. Our patients will also have access to discounted labs, imaging tests and special procedures not included in the membership fees.

Is there a sign-up fee to join?

Yes. There is a sign up fee of $75 per sign up, $150 max per enrollment session. For example, if you signed up your family of 5 over 5 different dates, they would each pay $75. Sign up all 5 on the same day and $150 is the maximum you would pay. Should you decide to cancel and rejoin, you will be asked to pay the initiation fee again. Employer groups of 5 or more do not pay any initiation fees.

Does Elevated Health see patients of all ages?
