Healthcare memberships are a growing trend among primary care providers, as the Indianapolis Business Journal reported earlier this month. Why? Soaring healthcare costs and insurance carriers tightening their grip by limiting whom their members may see, for how long, and at what costs has driven more and more providers to find ways of making their care directly accessible to the consumer.
Despite the fact that less than 2% of primary care practitioners offer membership access to their services, twenty-one states have enacted laws to regulate this approach to health-care, which tell us that we’re onto something special!
Regular Chiropractic Care and Memberships go hand in hand for a number of reasons:
The practice of Chiropractic does not center on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of symptoms, that is the practice of medicine. Instead, Chiropractors focus on restoring proper function to the body so it may regulate and heal in the way that it was designed to.
Traditional Fee-for-Service care aims to correct a symptomatic issue with a single or series of treatments, prescription(s), or procedures. Chiropractic promotes regular care for the fullest expression of Health, Life, Vitality, and Well-Being. We believe the everyone deserves to be their absolute best, whether they’re sick, healthy, symptomatic, young, old, or anything else.
Health Insurance Benefits were designed to ease the burden of high-cost services in the traditional fee for service model. Much like Auto or Homeowner's Insurance this is appropriate when something costly and unexpected occurs. Membership options allow us to set a reasonable fee for our service while granting access to our practice members who regularly strive for continued and better health.
Insurance benefits do not cover maintenance services. Dental Insurance doesn’t cover new toothbrushes and floss to keep our teeth healthy, yet we brush our teeth daily whether our breath smells or not. Regular Chiropractic Care is about expressing one’s greatest potential for living by maintaining proper Nervous System function, and we believe that people should be checked for subluxations even if they’re not in pain. Memberships allow people to get checked regularly, so they may adapt and function to the best of their ability.
Insurance carries make decisions regarding your health while calculating their profit margins dictating who you may see, for how many visits, and what service(s) the practitioner may perform. At Hands On Health our practice members get Access to Care; it isn’t ala carte, there are no additional fees, penalties, limitations, or hurdles. Memberships allow us to make better health as simple, easy, and accessible as possible.
Since our model is simple, we are able to keep our costs and overhead low, so many of our members find our memberships to be more affordable than their annual Deductible, visit Copay/Coinsurance, and noncovered services which may be deemed Not Medically Necessary.
