DPC Starter Guide

A free front door to Direct Primary Care.

If you are asking a question medical training never taught you to ask out loud, is there another way to do this, this guide is where you start.

The DPC Starter Guide is the doorway into Direct Primary Care, built doctor to doctor for the parts of practice ownership no one prepared us for. It points you to three short reads that explain the whole idea in about thirty minutes, hands you three worksheets you will actually use, helps you find exactly where you are standing right now, and leaves you with one decision. That is all a first step ever needs to be.

Inside you will find a plain-language look at the four ways to practice medicine and why only one aligns payment with care, a one-page breakdown of what actually changes when revenue follows relationships instead of visit volume, and a starting line for every stage: curious, deciding, pre-launch, or already open. The three worksheets get you moving the same day: your first thirty members, your five-minute pitch, and your announcement to the world.

Wherever you are, you did not land here by accident. This is a starting point, not a finish line.
