With healthcare costs continuing to rise and employees facing challenges accessing care, employers are taking a closer look at alternatives to traditional primary care. Direct Primary Care (DPC) is one option gaining attention, but how does it work, and where does it fit within an employer's broader benefits strategy?
This session examines the DPC model and what employers should consider before introducing it as part of their healthcare offerings. You'll explore how DPC differs from traditional primary care, the potential implications for employee access and healthcare spending, and the practical considerations involved in implementation.
Through real-world examples, we'll examine where DPC may offer value, what challenges employers should anticipate and how to evaluate whether the model is appropriate for their workforce. You'll leave better equipped to assess DPC as a potential component of your benefits strategy and identify the questions to ask before moving forward.
