When it comes to your health, you can be proactive or reactive: you can either proactively invest in wellness, or reactively invest in illness. The choice is yours. At Cuozzo Health, we offer a proactive approach to wellness through Direct Patient Care (DPC) pricing. By choosing DPC, you’re investing in your health rather than reacting to illness, with transparent, up-front pricing that prioritizes your well-being.

WHY THE CONVENTIONAL INSURANCE MODEL DOESN’T WORK for patients or providers

Traditional insurance systems often fail to provide the best care for patients. They focus on managing illnesses instead of promoting health. High copays, premiums, and limited coverage make it difficult for many to access the care they need, and short, rushed appointments lead to subpar results. For uninsured patients, the cost of care can be prohibitive, and out-of-pocket expenses are often unclear until after the treatment is provided.

The “Pill for every ill” approach leaves patients powerless, and large medical corporations profit while limiting access to personalized care. Small, independent practices are being pushed out by rising overhead costs and decreasing reimbursements.

• Ineffective Healthcare System: Focuses on maintaining “customers for life” rather than promoting long-term wellness.

• Patient Powerlessness: Insurance companies control care, raising costs through high copays, premiums, and deductibles.

• Challenges for the Uninsured: High self-pay costs and lack of price transparency make care unaffordable for many.

• Short, Low-Quality Appointments: Limited face-to-face time (8-minute average!) leads to inadequate care and reliance on expensive medications.

• Profit-Driven Industry: Large corporations profit by controlling care standards, reducing reimbursements, and limiting access to personalized care.

• Small Practices Struggling: Rising overhead and decreasing reimbursements are pushing independent providers out of business.

• “Pill for Every Ill”: The system incentivizes ongoing treatment rather than true healing, leaving patients stuck in a cycle.

THERE IS A SOLUTION: Affordable, Patient-Centered Care with DPC Pricing

At Cuozzo Health, we offer a solution that gives both independent healthcare providers and patients access to affordable, high-quality, patient-centered care through Direct Patient Care (DPC) pricing.

What is DPC Pricing? DPC pricing establishes a clear, transparent financial arrangement between you and your provider, cutting out the middleman (insurance companies). With this model, you pay directly for care at an upfront, predictable rate, ensuring more freedom and control over your healthcare investment.

How DPC Pricing Saves You Money

• Cost Savings: DPC pricing allows you to access a wide range of therapies and treatments, including those not covered by traditional insurance plans.

• Flexible Payment: You can use your HSA/FSA for payment, and submit an itemized superbill to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

• Reduced Administrative Costs: The streamlined billing process lowers overhead costs, saving both patients and providers money.

Why Choose DPC Pricing?

• Personalized Care: By adopting DPC pricing, we provide more face-to-face time with your healthcare provider, ensuring a higher level of personalized care.

• Affordability: This model is especially beneficial for patients with high-deductible insurance or no coverage, helping you save money in the long run while ensuring continuity of care.

• Take Control of Your Health: DPC pricing empowers you to invest in long term health rather than illness, offering a fair, transparent price for comprehensive care.
