Direct Primary Care Membership in Sarasota

Direct primary care is a membership-based approach to primary care in which patients pay the practice directly rather than billing insurance for routine care. At Holistic Direct Primary Care, membership supports personalized primary care, comprehensive consultations, annual physical exams, and unlimited portal messaging. The practice does not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, helping avoid copays, claims, and surprise bills from the practice.

Holistic Direct Primary Care lists membership tiers by age: $80 for ages 18–25, $130 for ages 26–55, and $155 for ages 56 and older. There are no enrollment or registration fees. A Snowbird Membership for patients 56 and older is listed at a $620 flat fee and includes five in-home visits per season. Small-business membership rates are available by inquiry.

Yes. An annual physical exam is included with membership. This visit provides time to review your health history, discuss current concerns and wellness goals, consider preventive needs, and create a care plan. It is also an opportunity to ask questions and receive health education in a setting focused on your individual priorities rather than a rushed appointment schedule.

Holistic Direct Primary Care provides in-home medical visits within approximately 25 miles surrounding Bradenton, including Sarasota County. In-home care can make routine primary care more comfortable and private, particularly for patients who value convenience or have difficulty traveling. Availability and the most suitable visit format are determined based on your needs, location, and the nature of your concern.

Yes. Telehealth visits are available as part of the practice’s convenient care model. Virtual appointments can be useful for follow-up discussions, medication or treatment-plan conversations, reviewing symptoms, and ongoing health guidance when an in-person assessment is not necessary. Your provider can help determine whether telehealth, an in-home visit, or another level of care is appropriate for your concern.

No. Holistic Direct Primary Care operates on a self-pay basis and does not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. This direct-pay structure is designed to eliminate insurance claims and copays from the practice while making membership costs clearer. Patients may still choose to maintain insurance separately for services outside the practice, such as hospital care, specialists, imaging, or prescriptions.

The practice offers same-day or next-day appointment availability, helping members address health concerns without unnecessary delays. Appointment timing can vary based on the type of visit, whether in-home or virtual care is needed, and scheduling availability. Members can also use unlimited portal messaging for ongoing communication, questions, and support between scheduled visits.

Membership primary care can support preventive care, annual exams, everyday adult health concerns, diabetes management, mental and behavioral health needs, weight management, cardiac evaluations, fitness guidance, and referrals when specialty care is appropriate. Holistic Direct Primary Care considers conventional, functional, holistic, and alternative approaches while creating a plan that reflects your medical needs, preferences, and whole-person wellness goals.
