The DPC Summit is in two months in Dallas. It will be sold out like it is every year. I am doing a keynote talk at the end of the day on Friday. It is a topic no one has ever spoken about before. I spent a year talking and researching DPC practices that have failed and I have some eye-opening information for you. If you are on the fence then come to this talk. If you are gung-ho to start you still need to go to this talk. And if you are in practice and your growth has plateaued then you also need to come.
Yes, the fee-for-service insurance system sucks but Direct Primary Care is NOT for every doctor. There is about a 10% failure rate. Make sure that is not you. I’ll see you in Dallas.
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.
