Do you take Insurance?

No. We’ve structured our model to be able to provide the highest quality of care while still saving our patients money whether they have insurance or not. Over 70% of our patients have health insurance and have still found that we provide better care at a lower cost. You see in the 1950’s the rise of for-profit insurance companies emerged and from that point on insurance companies have cared more about profit than patient health. Now the Government and Insurance companies dictate the care you get where our model allows us to provide you with the care you need. That is why we are proud to say we do not accept insurance that allows you to get the quality of care you need at a far more affordable cost. In most cases, we can actually save you money even with insurance. Please contact us to see if our model can work for you.

Do you work with Businesses or Corporations?

Yes! In fact, we have a special package for businesses that can save them more than 35-65% on their healthcare expenses. This package also provides better, more personalized care, increasing employee health and loyalty. Keep Your Employees & Attract New Ones Health benefits have been shown to be the #1 benefit employees look for when looking for a new job and the main tool for retaining high-quality employees. Save Your Business Money Small businesses spend an average of $3000 per year per employee on healthcare costs. With Desert Mobile Medical, our membership packages can save you over $2000 per employee! Affordable And Convenient No co-pays. No deductibles. A house call doctor will come to you which reduces worker’s compensation cases, fewer hospitalizations, and fewer urgent care visits. Typically 90% of issues can be solved with direct primary care yet most people are paying huge fees for their healthcare. With our system, you can cut most of those costs out, and get better care from the comfort of your own home. Our fiscal year just ended and our hospitalization rates for 2019 were 3.0%, our urgent care visits, and our worker’s comp cases were 0%. This means more productive, happy, loyal employees.

How much does it cost?

Typically, our model allows us to save our patients money on the overall medical cost. We like to look at your medical costs as a whole for the year (such as co-pays and deductibles), not just the premiums you pay for insurance. Please click here to see our pricing models.

House Doctor vs. Traditional Primary Care Physician: What's the Difference?

House Doctor vs. Traditional Primary Care Physician: Understanding the Contrasts

Accessing quality healthcare has now become more important than ever. With options like House Doctors and traditional primary care physicians available, patients often wonder which option best suits their needs. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll delve into the differences between House Doctors and traditional primary care physicians, shedding light on their unique characteristics, benefits, and patient experiences.

In the realm of healthcare, the role of House Doctors has emerged as an innovative alternative to traditional primary care physicians. While both provide essential medical services, they differ significantly in their approach, delivery of care, and patient experience. At Desert Mobile Medical, we recognize the importance of understanding these differences to help patients make informed decisions about their healthcare journey. Let’s explore the distinctions between House Doctors and traditional primary care physicians and how they impact the delivery of healthcare services.

Understanding House Doctors

House Doctors, also known as home visit doctors or concierge physicians, represent a modern approach to healthcare delivery focused on personalized, convenient, and patient-centric medical services. These healthcare professionals are dedicated to providing comprehensive medical care directly to patients in the comfort of their homes, workplaces, or any preferred location.

House Doctors prioritize accessibility, ensuring that patients can receive timely medical attention without the inconvenience of traveling to a clinic or enduring long wait times. By bringing healthcare services to the patient’s doorstep, House Doctors eliminate barriers to access, particularly for individuals with mobility limitations, busy schedules, or chronic health conditions that make traditional clinic visits challenging.

Furthermore, House Doctors emphasize personalized care and relationship building, taking the time to understand each patient’s unique medical history, lifestyle factors, and individual preferences. This personalized approach fosters trust and collaboration between the doctor and patient, leading to better health outcomes and overall patient satisfaction. This is the future of healthcare with personalized house calls!

In addition to routine check-ups and preventive care, House Doctors offer a wide range of medical services, including acute care for minor illnesses and injuries, chronic disease management, medication management, diagnostic testing, and vaccinations. They provide continuity of care by closely following up with patients and coordinating with specialists as needed, ensuring a seamless healthcare experience from diagnosis to treatment.

House Doctors often leverage technology and telemedicine platforms to enhance care delivery, offering virtual consultations, remote monitoring, and electronic health records for easy access to medical information and communication with patients. This integration of technology enables patients to receive high-quality healthcare services conveniently from their homes or mobile devices.

Key Differences:

Accessibility and Convenience:
- House Doctors: House Doctors offer unparalleled accessibility and convenience by providing medical services directly to patients’ homes, workplaces, or other preferred locations. This eliminates the need for patients to travel to a clinic, reducing wait times and the hassle of transportation.
- Traditional Primary Care Physicians: In contrast, traditional primary care physicians typically practice in clinic settings, requiring patients to schedule appointments and visit the office for consultations, check-ups, and treatments. This may pose challenges for individuals with mobility issues, busy schedules, or limited access to transportation.
Personalized Care and Relationship Building:
- House Doctors: House Doctors prioritize personalized care and build strong relationships with their patients. They take the time to understand patients’ medical histories, lifestyle factors, and individual preferences, fostering trust and rapport.
- Traditional Primary Care Physicians: While traditional primary care physicians also strive to provide personalized care, the constraints of clinic-based practice may limit the amount of time they can spend with each patient. This can impact the depth of the physician-patient relationship and the level of personalized attention provided.
Comprehensive Services and Continuity of Care:
- House Doctors: House Doctors offer comprehensive medical services, ranging from routine check-ups and preventive care to urgent medical interventions and chronic disease management. They provide continuity of care by following up with patients and coordinating with specialists as needed.
- Traditional Primary Care Physicians: Similarly, traditional primary care physicians offer a wide range of medical services, but patients may encounter challenges in accessing timely care and achieving continuity due to factors such as scheduling constraints and limited availability.
Technological Integration and Telemedicine:
- House Doctors: Many House Doctors leverage technology and telemedicine platforms to enhance the delivery of care. They may offer virtual consultations, remote monitoring, and electronic health records, enabling patients to access healthcare services conveniently from their smartphones or computers.
- Traditional Primary Care Physicians: While some traditional primary care physicians have adopted telemedicine technologies, others may have limited experience or infrastructure for remote care delivery. This can affect patients’ ability to access healthcare services outside of traditional clinic hours or locations.

House Doctors and traditional primary care physicians offer distinct approaches to delivering healthcare services. While both play vital roles in meeting patients’ medical needs, House Doctors stand out for their focus on accessibility, personalized care, comprehensive services, and technological integration. At Desert Mobile Medical, we’re committed to providing patient-centered care that combines the convenience of House Doctors with the expertise of traditional primary care physicians, ensuring that patients receive high-quality healthcare services tailored to their individual needs and preferences.
