Direct Primary Care is the only hope left for family doctors. As hospitals continue to gobble us up we need to continue to promote what we do. The chart above was in Modern Healthcare and I don’t have a subscription nor would I want one so the image is not great quality. It doesn’t matter. The point is the same. We are losing our docs to administrators of either hospitals or the corporate practice of medicine (CPOM). These lines on the graph need to go back down. We have the way in DPC. With that in mind, what slogan do you have in mind? Here are my thoughts:
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.
