Healthcare2U Answers Employer Demand for Accessible Primary Care for Employees

AUGUST 03, 2018 – SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH – Healthcare2U’s new physician partnership in Salt Lake City, Utah is the first integrated Direct Primary Care clinic in the state. Utah is the fourth healthiest state nationwide but surprisingly lacks a sufficient number of primary care physicians, creating Medically Underserved Populations across Utah, and in particular, Salt Lake City. In response, employers are demanding access to Direct Primary Care, a healthcare membership which eliminates the inaccessibility of healthcare.

“The need for convenient access to primary care is not new,” says Dr. John Rodriguez, Chief Medical Officer of Healthcare2U. “Without access to a primary care physician, many people must visit urgent care clinics or emergency rooms for primary care treatment. This routine generates expensive co-pays and insurance claims which dissuade patients from seeking appropriate care. When patients avoid care it often causes small issues to become serious health risks, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Healthcare2U’s Direct Primary Care membership simplifies care while eliminating those concerns.”

Healthcare2U delivers membership-based healthcare on a national scale through its proprietary Private Physician Network™ (PPN). Within these clinics, Healthcare2U provides same-day and next-day doctor appointments for acute issues at $10 a visit and around-the-clock telehealth for $0 out-of-pocket cost. In addition to unlimited same-day/next-day acute visits, Healthcare2U physician partners agree to treat 13 of the most prevalent chronic disease states for the same $10 visit fee. Healthcare2U physician partners also agree to practice generic-first protocols to reduce pharmaceutical costs for employers and their employees.

“Convenient Direct Primary Care encourages patients to establish a trusting relationship with their doctors, therefore they are more likely to make educated healthcare decisions,” says Andy Bonner, CEO of Healthcare2U. “With simplified coverage, we create an opportunity for employers and patients to contain healthcare costs and utilize available Direct Primary Care resources to their advantage. To put it simply, that’s Healthcare2U’s mission: accessible and affordable healthcare.”

Healthcare2U Brings Direct Primary Care to Memphis In Response to Employer Demands For Affordable Healthcare Solutions

JULY 19, 2018 – MEMPHIS, TN – In response to Tennessee’s sharp premium increases and the demand for affordable group healthcare solutions, Healthcare2U has added three clinics in Memphis.

Healthcare2U delivers membership-based healthcare on a national scale through its proprietary Private Physician Network™.

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.

“Healthcare2U’s practice protocols alleviate healthcare concerns for employers their employees,” says John Rodriguez, Chief Medical Officer of Healthcare2U. “We contain costs for employer groups by drawing insurance claims away from an employer’s insurance, towards our Direct Primary Care membership. This practice contains an employer’s cost while providing employees immediate access to care, preventing unnecessary use of urgent care clinics and emergency rooms.

Nashville’s Demand for Affordable Healthcare Has Been Answered by Healthcare2U’s Direct Primary Care

June 06, 2018 – NASHVILLE, TN – Due to the need for affordable and creative healthcare solutions in the marketplace, Healthcare2U has expanded its Direct Primary Care coverage into the Nashville area with the recent addition of three new clinics. In 2018, hikes in Tennessee’s health insurance premiums far exceeded those across the U.S., affecting Nashville’s healthcare marketplace drastically. Nashville currently has only two insurers and the low availability of providers contributes to their increased insurance premiums.

“In Nashville, from 2017 to 2018, the ACA’s Silver and Gold plans increased by about 37% and 67%, respectively. With these increases, traditional insurance plans have become more expensive while providing less coverage than ever. With these problems occurring nationally, it’s time to change the way healthcare is delivered,” says Andy Bonner, CEO of Healthcare2U. “An employer’s healthcare coverage should not be financially crippling. With premiums rising across Tennessee, Healthcare2U is dedicated to delivering affordable healthcare to employers across the state.”

Healthcare2U’s Direct Primary Care provides employers and their employees with a healthcare membership that prevents claims from hitting an employer’s health insurance. This membership provides employees access to unlimited same-day/next-day doctor appointments for acute issues for a $10 visit fee, and access to telehealth practitioners 24/7/365 for no additional out-of-pocket cost. In addition to acute primary care, Healthcare2U offers chronic disease management for 13 of the most prevalent disease states such as diabetes, hypertension, and asthma at the same $10 visit fee. Healthcare2U physicians also practice generic-first protocols to reduce pharmaceutical spend for employers and their employees.

“The Direct Primary Care model is tried and true, dating back before big-insurance took the reins of healthcare. Now, with health insurance costs rising, employers see the benefit of a cost-saving model that endorses preventative care,” says Dr. John Rodriguez, Chief Medical Officer of Healthcare2U. “Our model promotes a relationship between members and their physician, which nurtures educated health decisions and healthier lifestyle choices for our members. In short, that’s how healthcare should be delivered.”

Healthcare2U has more than 235 clinics in its nationwide Private Physician Network (PPN)™, including clinics in Chattanooga and Knoxville.

Brokers and employers interested in cost-containment healthcare strategies now have an innovative alternative to health insurance. Known as the eighth most expensive state for healthcare spending per capita as of 2014, New York spends 20 percent more than the national average on insurance. Healthcare2U’s entrance into New York’s most acclaimed community provides residents access to inventive Direct Primary Care that challenges New York’s costly status-quo.

“Manhattan residents are demanding cost-effective healthcare that doesn’t involve insurance as a middle man,” said Andy Bonner, CEO of Healthcare2U. “They deserve simplified, high-quality healthcare coverage and Healthcare2U can deliver just that at a monthly price that is less expensive than a monthly subscription to The Wall Street Journal.

Rather than dealing with the price tag and administration of traditional health insurance, Healthcare2U reduces costs through their Direct Primary Care claims-avoidant membership.

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.

No-Claims Healthcare Coverage Now Available in the Greater Chattanooga Area

February 13, 2018 – Chattanooga, TN — Healthcare2U has expanded its offerings to serve the Chattanooga and greater Cleveland, TN area. With Healthcare2U’s arrival, employers and their employees now have access to a unique approach to health coverage offering a no-claims model that caps an employers’ cost.

“Demand from local employers and health insurance brokers is driving the expansion of Healthcare2U’s low-cost primary care plans in the Chattanooga area,” said Andy Bonner, CEO of Healthcare2U. “Our research tells us that Hamilton County is served by only one insurance issuer, limiting healthcare options. We’re bringing an exceptionally competitive model to this market to ensure employers and their employees have a real choice in their healthcare coverage offerings.”

Employee members can access doctor appointments for a $10 visit fee as well as telemedicine practitioners 24 hours a day, seven days a week at $0 out-of-pocket expense. Healthcare2U also covers more than just primary care; membership includes chronic disease management for the 13 most prevalent disease states so members with pre-existing chronic conditions – like diabetes, hypertension, and asthma – can take advantage of Healthcare2U’s low-cost care for the same $10 visit fee. Members also receive patient navigation assistance through Healthcare2U’s triage line and Private Physician Network (PPN) of more than 220 clinics nationwide.

Dr. John Rodriguez, Healthcare2U’s chief medical officer, said, “Unfortunately, the Hamilton County experience isn’t all that unique. Nearly three million Americans face limited options in their hometowns, and the lack of competition means costs can rise without any options for healthcare consumers. Healthcare2U delivers a membership-based model where no insurance claims are filed for doctor visits against a member company’s health plan. Our model brings high-quality, comprehensive care at an amazing price.”
