Direct Specialty Care is an innovative healthcare model where physicians operated practices will partner with their patients to provide specialty care services under a flat or periodic membership fee. Direct Specialty Care aims to remove the traditional insurance-based billing system, removing the burden of documenting extensively, coding, billing, accreditation and contracting with insurance companies.
