Direct primary care (DPC) models—where patients pay a flat monthly retainer fee directly to a physician or medical clinic in exchange for unlimited access to primary care services—are often considered well worth the cost for individuals seeking personalized, unhurried medical attention. It eliminates traditional insurance copays and administrative hurdles for routine care, though patients typically still need to maintain separate high-deductible major medical insurance to cover catastrophic hospitalizations or specialist surgeries.
