Enhanced Access
First, by enhancing access to your physician and maintaining consistent communication, DEPC aids in preventing many health issues from escalating.
With increased time devoted to patients, personalized care plans can be devised, shifting the focus from reactive medicine to proactive healthcare. Today’s primary care often operates as a system primarily addressing illness; DEPC, however, embodies a genuine healthcare model.
- Stronger Dr./Patient Relationship
- Call, Text, Facetime with your Dr.
- Streamlined Referral Process
- Same Day/Next Day Appointment
Advanced Advocacy
Secondly, DEPC operates as an independent entity, separate from large hospital systems. Consequently, fees are naturally reduced. From laboratory expenses to acute injury treatments, costs are lower due to this independent model. For instance, laboratory services through DEPC are, on average, $190 cheaper than those offered by traditional hospital labs.
- Increased Care Management
- Increased Patient Advocacy
Cost Savings
Lastly, Delphi is integrated into a network of high-quality, cost-effective providers and facilities. This not only improves accessibility and diminishes wait times for additional services but also empowers Delphi’s extended team of care advocates, available through membership, to assist in locating high-quality, affordable services beyond what a primary care physician can offer. For example, an MRI performed at a preferred Delphi Facility costs an average of $3,000 less than one conducted within a traditional hospital system. And keep in mind, just because it’s less expensive, doesn’t mean quality is sacrificed. It many ways, it’s quite the opposite.
These are just a few examples of the numerous areas where DEPC facilitates savings for patients!
