New Year, New Healthcare

New Years’ is a time to reflect on the past year and look forward to a new one. Many people take this opportunity to evaluate aspects of their lives and make changes. Whether it be joining the gym, eating healthier, spending less money, and more. When you are assessing your life and determining what serves you and what doesn’t, we think that your healthcare should be on the list of things to access. In today’s blog at Nextera Healthcare in Longmont, we help you access your current healthcare plan by providing you with a few key questions that you can ask yourself. Keep reading to learn more, and if you are interested in learning about Direct Primary Care at Nextera Healthcare in Longmont, reach out to our friendly team today!

Tired of Paying More Than You Have To?

The first thing you should consider is how much you are paying for your health insurance. When compared to having Direct Primary Care and a high-deductible healthcare plan to cover all your needs, your health insurance is very likely much more expensive than it needs to be. It’s worthwhile to double-check what you are currently paying for your healthcare and compare it to what you could be paying with Direct Primary Care. In most cases, people find that they gain more coverage for less money. Contact Nextera Healthcare in Longmont today to learn more.

Tired of Being Punished For Seeing Your Doctor?

With most health insurance, whenever you want to see a doctor, there are a few obstacles to overcome first. You need to find a doctor that is “in-network” according to your healthcare provider, which can often change. Then, you need to make an appointment, drive to the office, and then when you are done, pay a copay or deductible (or both). This process can feel punishing and actually decentivize people from seeking medical advice/attention. In today’s day and age, wouldn’t you think we’d have a healthcare system in place that doesn’t punish you for seeking out medical help? With Direct Primary Care at Nextera Healthcare in Longmont, that system is now a reality.

Tired of Rushed Doctor’s Visits?

Let’s revisit the “normal” scenario for seeing your doctor and fast forward to when you actually arrive for your appointment. In many cases, you’ll spend more time in the waiting room than you’ll spend actually talking with your doctor. This is another flaw in the current healthcare system that Direct Primary Care aims to fix. At least with Nextera Healthcare in Longmont, you can spend a full 30 minutes or more talking to your doctor until all your concerns and needs are met. That kind of quality care is tough to find these days. It’s worth asking yourself “Does my current healthcare plan allow me to spend all the time I need with my doctor?” If the answer is no, it may be time to make the switch to Direct Primary Care.

Tired of Having to Drive to the Doctor’s Office?

The last question you should ask of your current healthcare plan is whether or not you want to continue driving to the doctor every time you need to go, or would you rather have some options? More and more healthcare providers are offering telehealth options — especially during this period with COVID-19. But there are still a shocking number of healthcare providers that do not offer alternative communication options. When assessing your current healthcare plan, it’s worth knowing that Direct Primary Care with Nextera Healthcare in Longmont offers you options to communicate with your doctor in any way that suits you best. Whether it be text message, video chat, phone call, email, smoke signal, you name it, we’ll make it happen.
