Question 10

Direct Primary Care vs Concierge Care

Accepted Answer

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is ideal for employers attempting to supplement high-deductible healthcare plans or those that are not in a position to offer health insurance but have the desire to provide a healthcare option to their employees.

Concierge Care is for employers that offer quality insurance but have the desire to improve ease of access and high-quality primary care for their employees.

More Personalized Care: Cornerstone's approach allows for longer, leisurely appointments, fostering strong doctor-patient relationships and higher satisfaction. Employees appreciate the personal, attentive care and the ease of direct access to their provider.
Competitive Benefits Offering: Membership is an attractive perk, especially for employees frustrated with the traditional healthcare system. It can serve as a differentiator when recruiting and retaining talent.

Question 13

Simplified Administration

Accepted Answer

Simplified Administration: Since Cornerstone Health provides and maintains the employer portal it reduces administrative burden. Employees can be added by using a unique employer-provided link and filling out simple demographics and info.  Employees can be removed by logging into the portal and archiving/deleting and your monthly fees will be automatically adjusted.

Question 14

Potential for Lower Overall Insurance Costs

Accepted Answer

Paired with HDHPs: In most situations, insurance is still somewhat of a necessity.  DPC pairs well with high-deductible health plans, allowing employers to offer coverage for major medical events while using Concierge or DPC for primary care. This approach can lead to lower premiums on traditional insurance, as it reduces the use of insurance for routine visits.

Accepted Answer

Improved Health Outcomes: Membership-based models often lead to improved patient outcomes, as employees receive continuous and comprehensive care,  resulting in fewer costly, long-term interventions. Improved health outcomes contribute to long-term savings for employers.
