DOING WHAT WE’VE ALWAYS DONE

Studies show that when an employer adopts a direct primary care practice like ImagineMD into its health plan, downstream healthcare utilization—like ER visits, specialty referrals, imaging, and hospitalizations—goes down, resulting in better health for employees and significant cost savings for the health plan. At ImagineMD, we’ve been helping businesses improve the quality of healthcare their employees receive while at the same time reducing costs.

Pent up healthcare demand will skyrocket and so will those same downstream costs.

 

With the economy sliding into what may become a second Great Depression, controlling unnecessary downstream healthcare utilization to control costs has never been more important.
