What Is Direct Primary Care (DPC)?

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a modern approach to primary healthcare that changes how you access and pay for your “main” doctor. Instead of the traditional insurance-based model, DPC connects you directly with your primary care physician through a membership fee.

Primary care services in DPC include sick visits, annual physical exams, preventive healthcare, medication refills, simple procedures like freezing warts or pap smears, and referrals to specialists when needed.

Across the United States, there are currently over 2,000 Direct Primary Care clinics serving patients who want more personalized, accessible, and affordable care.

At a DPC clinic like RiverRock, you pay a flat monthly or yearly fee that covers your primary care services — but you can still use your insurance to pay for everything else: lab tests, pap smear analysis, X-rays, specialist visits, and more.

This membership-based care model is built for lasting relationships, offering a level of communication and trust that’s hard to find in traditional care settings.
