- Insurance can be expensive and mind-boggling, why not visit a doctor who doesn't take it? Dr. Shane Purcell talks about direct primary care and how this system of health care may be the new model for the health care industry.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
He may be off by a factor of 2 or 3 and still be 10X ahead. The system is adversarial to the patient's best interests in regards to mental, physical and financial health and sense of well being.
I’ve heard great things about direct primary care
Great presentation! With no cost barriers for members, they are engaged with the provider to manage their chronic conditions effectively and direct them to the correct care settings.
excellent stuff!
This is amazing
...DPC is great EXCEPT you still need insurance for hospital coverage. Accidents happen and you need to be prepared with insurance for a hospital stay or have plenty of money to pay out of pocket (which will be a fortune).
Plus DPC can only cover about 80-90 percent of your care. You still need insurance to see specialists.
This is why we need to reform Medicare to make it a government health insurance program that would only cover hospital services that are related to catastrophic care and maternity care for every US citizen to have access to. Then the 80% to 90% of health care needs can be taking care of the direct primary care model.
There also needs to be an antitrust bust on the monopolization of hospital systems, health insurance companies, and pharmaceutical companies.
Yeah but it's a start. Tjis already allows some people to choose the cheapest insurance option for just accidents and emergencies instead of paying more each month for something more comprehensive with insurance.
Would still encourage anyone to sit down and see how they could transition to some ku d of hybrid coverage like that. The less mobey insurance companies get the better.
The "white coat" syndrome kicked in the second I saw it. My BP went up ten points.
Free markets not crony government-private insurance. Third party payer insurance is the problem, hides real costs, no price signaling? Same with everything government from central banking to military contracts?
Free market? Where does that work? It's pretty much what we have now. The insurance companies are free to bribe the government to keep prices high to have high profits. Health insurance needs to be regulated by a non corrupt body of government to keep prices in check. Get rid of insurance companies altogether!
Stacey Strukel free market works in almost every other sector that isn’t over-regulated
@@staceystrukel1917 we're not even close to a free market

@@staceystrukel1917 “free market” “government bribes” do you even see the problem with these two statements being used at the same time
Let's make it happen
At last the truth is spoken!!
Every conservative should be behind this
I’m a liberal for Medicare for all (not bernies tho) and I rly like this. In fact I think a Medicare for all system should give Americans roughly $50 a month so they can go and participate in one of these types of clinics
@@jeremyepstein6923 I have to completely disagree
@@juanfelipe8484 Trust me as a conservative I'm whole heartedly behind this, direct spending means costs will go down because administrative costs related to insurance go down and the relationship is better. Insurance should only be for catastrophic needs.
@@tarundaggolu3140 yup. And the quality of care and the experience is a lot better
@@juanfelipe8484 sounds good, it is a shame this is not in the political discourse

Bull, it says on many DPC webpages that costs can still accumulated for things such as blood tests and urine samples.... I'm sick of every "professional" lying to everyone. The monthly fee doesn't cover everything like you claim.
It depends on each clinic and how it is set up.
A good pitch but riddled with "errors of omission." E.G., are you mobile? Do you travel? Nothing is said about getting care when you are not near this clinic. Or, when you are in an accident needing emergency care by medical personnel who might not be part of this clinic. I agree that US medicine is a sick system but Medicare is multiples more efficient than Medicare Advantage companies. My supplementary BCBS is way too expensive but Direct Primary Care is not going to cover much that my insurance covers. If you sign up with DPC, good luck with your health and stay home.
The direct primary-care monthly fee service covers at least 75% of healthcare needs to at most 90% of healthcare needs so that health insurance ( regardless if it's a for-profit health insurance company or Medicare ) would not get involved between the primary care doctor and the patient. The rest of the 10% to 25% of healthcare needs can be covered by having reforming Medicare to become this health services that are catastrophic care related and maternity care related for every US citizen. I'm a believer that health insurance should be involved only for health services that are related to catastrophic care and maternity care.
Haha! The Krebs cycle....brings back memories.
Lol I rechecked the name of the video hahah jk
I think there are many people who would work in a clinic and donate their time in order to make it so everyone can have almost free heath care. I think we should open clinics have cleaning people, nurses doctors maintenance people pharmacists and others who work a few days a month for free and give patients almost free health care. To those who can't afford it. Kind of like the Red Cross. Make it a true non profit organization. They could take let over medications that haven't been opened from nursing homes and distribute them. I'm up for it. Is anyone else? We start with one clinic at a time, in the most populated areas and see low income people without insurance or crispy insurance. We can even extend visiting nurses into their homes to give if therapy. That's what i think should happen. Everyone employed gets free health care instead of a pay check. Its possible to have socialism and capitalism in one country. That's my opinion. End HEAD Start and give that tax money back to seniors. Toddlers do not need class room instruction. Play is the work of a child, author unknown. Set up free meal distribution for ALL homeless hungry people and the toddlers can come eat. Things need switched up. We could call it Socialist Health Care of America, non profit. Lets get together and just do it!
Dana May no one is going to work for free and people have bills to pay
That would require socialism which a lot of ppl are against
hey quick question
who's going to pay for it
@@todoldtrafford people used to do that 100 years ago
Sounds like the UK before the NHS
