Direct Primary Care Legislation Passes in the Sunshine State Just in Time for the Growth of No-Claims Healthcare™
May 08, 2018 – Orlando, FL – Healthcare2U’s new physician partnership in Orlando, Florida adds three new clinics to their national proprietary Private Physician Network (PPN)™. Healthcare2U is the nation’s fastest-growing integrated Direct Primary Care organization with more than 230 clinics nationwide. This expansion follows the passing of House Bill 37 by Florida Governor, Rick Scott. House Bill 37 claims that since Direct Primary Care is not health insurance, providers are not required to be regulated as an insurance company. Therefore, Direct Primary Care agreements do not infringe on the state’s insurance laws. This approved legislation encouraged Healthcare2U to expand its No-Claims Healthcare™ coverage to more employers and employees in the Florida market.
“Healthcare2U is rapidly expanding in response to the demand for affordable and convenient healthcare,” said Andy Bonner, CEO of Healthcare2U. “Direct Primary Care saves employers and their employees thousands of dollars on prescriptions, time-sensitive consultations, and chronic disease management while providing high-quality, affordable healthcare that Floridian workers deserve.”
Healthcare2U delivers membership-based healthcare on a national scale through its proprietary Private Physician Network™. Within these clinics, Healthcare2U provides same-day and next-day doctor appointments for acute issues at $10 a visit and around-the-clock telemedicine for $0 out-of-pocket cost. In addition to unlimited same-day/next-day acute visits, Healthcare2U’s mission is to also diagnose and treat disease states through their partner clinics, saving employers and their employees on specialist-care claims. Therefore, Healthcare2U physician partners agree to treat 13 of the most prevalent disease states for the same $10 visit fee. Physician partners also agree to practice generic-first protocols to reduce pharmaceutical costs for employers and their employees.
“Healthcare2U’s priority is to provide affordable coverage for employers and a meaningful patient-physician relationship for employees,” said Dr. John Rodriguez, Healthcare2U’s Chief Medical Officer. “Our physician partners are earnest to build a relationship with their patients to deliver time-sensitive, personalized care that improves an employee’s overall state of health. With Healthcare2U, the patient-physician connection exceeds all expectations and is the foundation of our Direct Primary Care program’s success.”
Healthcare2U’s Direct Primary Care offerings push to change how employers and their employees interact with healthcare, and through its efforts, primary care is evolving into an accessible and personal system nationwide.
