Healthcare2U detects, treats, and manages 13 of the most prevalent disease states through our partner-physician clinics for a $10 fee per visit.

I have health insurance. How does a DPC membership work with commercial health insurance like United Healthcare, Blue Cross, Aetna or others?
Healthcare2U is a great complement to traditional insurance healthcare plans. Through Direct Primary Care’s alternative payment model, all services offered by the membership are deflected from your insurance plan. Instead of dealing with copays, deductibles, and premiums, there is a flat membership fee and low visit fees when you arrive to the physician clinic. For example, members that have high deductible health plans can benefit from Healthcare2U because the membership will serve as a gap solution, providing you with valuable primary-care services that your health insurance does not cover.
Can Healthcare2U physicians treat any medical condition?
Healthcare2U Physician Services providers can treat many medical conditions including certain chronic conditions within manageable ranges like diabetes or hypertension. There may be times when patients will need to be referred to a specialist or hospital. Specialist care and hospital coverage are not included under the Healthcare2U membership agreement.
Does this membership cover hospital care or specialty care?
Hospital Care:
Healthcare2U’s membership does not include inpatient or outpatient hospital services. In addition to this membership, many members have/acquire a high-deductible wraparound policy to cover the emergency care that is not covered under Healthcare2U.
Specialty Care:
Healthcare2U detects, treats, and manages 13 of the most prevalent chronic disease states. While we accept disease states within manageable ranges, we do not provide specialty care outside of our partner-physician clinics. If a member currently sees a specialist for an advanced disease state, we do not recommend leaving that specialist.
If I have Medicare, Medicaid or Tricare, can I enroll in Healthcare2U?
No, unfortunately Healthcare2U cannot accept these members due to insurance regulations.
