Kudos to Ashlee Hendry, DO. Her videos showing cash prices vs. insurance prices have blown people away. Of course, we have known this and have advocated this for our patients, but on the whole, the public is clueless.
EVEN MARK CUBAN is commenting on her video!!!
Please tell Mark, like I did, that we DO NOT want hospitals to put some “network” of primary care providers together. He is clueless. They are as evil as the insurers. This is why we left the system. How in the hell does Cuban not know about DPC by now? Please reply to him on X if you can.
Back to our hero. Great job, Dr. Hendry!!!!

Dr. Farrago is a retired family physician based in Forest, Virginia. Since 2021, he has run DPCnews.com, a leading resource for the Direct Primary Care (DPC) movement.
He is the author of three best-selling books on Direct Primary Care:
The Official Guide to Starting Your Own Direct Primary Care Practice
The Direct Primary Care Doctor’s Daily Motivational Journal
Slowing the Churn in Direct Primary Care (While Also Keeping Your Sanity)
In 2016, Dr. Farrago conceived the idea for the Direct Primary Care Alliance and co-founded the organization alongside other pioneering DPC physicians. He is widely recognized as a leading expert in the DPC model and frequently lectures to medical students, residents, and practicing physicians on how to successfully start and run their own DPC practices.Dr. Farrago sold his Direct Primary Care practice in October 2020 but continues to receive care there as a patient.
I’ve spoken to Mark Cuban about DPC and he stated that they are already on board with the idea and trying to get corporations to understand the benefits and start offering as packages to their employees.
Great. Who are the DPC docs helping him? And who is “they”? Because if they are doing it without the right advisors, then they can stop before they start because they’ll screw it up. The fact that he wants hospitals to network us is ridiculous, so someone is not telling him the right things. If you know him, give him my info and tell him to call me. 🙂
I don’t trust Cuban or anyone else trying to make money off of DPC. The whole point of DPC in my opinion is to remove all the middlemen. I CERTAINLY don’t trust any nonprofit hospital.
