What is the Vativis Direct Primary Care Program?
The Vativis Direct Primary Care Program (DPC) is a medical discount program that is the solution to rising healthcare costs resulting in higher out-of-pocket costs for employers and individuals. Our platform and benefits are simple and straightforward with out of pocket costs shown upfront.
Is the Direct Primary Care membership considered health insurance?
Nope, it’s not insurance! Vativis offers a primary care membership that works on a different system called Direct Primary Care (DPC). You pay a flat fee for a bunch of health services, but this membership doesn’t cover things like hospital stays or serious illnesses.
Why can't I see clinic names, addresses, and phone numbers?
Good question! With Vativis, you can’t just walk into a primary care or urgent care clinic without an appointment. To avoid that, we wait until you schedule your visit through our Patient Advocacy Line before sharing any clinic details.
Can members see a doctor as many times as they want?
Absolutely! There’s no limit on how often you can visit a doctor with Vativis. You just need to book your appointments through our Patient Advocacy Line.
Is Vativis DPC membership available everywhere?
Yes, you can find Vativis DPC membership all across the United States!
What benefits come with the Vativis membership?
Here’s what’s included in your Vativis DPC membership:
- Unlimited doctor visits for just a $10 fee each time.
- Unlimited urgent care visits for $25 each.
- You get 24/7 access to bilingual medical providers online or by phone for minor illnesses and injuries, all at no extra cost!
- An annual physical with four lab tests (the Well-woman pap smear isn’t included).
- You can manage unlimited chronic disease conditions, like diabetes and high blood pressure, with 13 common health issues covered.
- Plus, our doctors focus on using generic meds first whenever possible.
If I have pre-existing conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, can I still join?
Yes, you can! We accept pre-existing conditions as long as they’re within manageable ranges. You can see a doctor for just a $10 fee each time you visit, and since members can visit as often as needed, you can get the care you need before things get serious.
How does a DPC membership work with regular health insurance plans like United Healthcare or Aetna?
Vativis is a great addition to your regular health insurance plan. With DPC, you pay a simple membership fee and low visit fees when you see a doctor. This can be especially helpful if you have a high deductible plan!
Can Vativis doctors take care of any medical issues?
Our providers can treat a lot of conditions, including chronic ones like diabetes and high blood pressure, as long as they’re manageable. Sometimes, though, you might need to see a specialist or go to a hospital, and those services aren’t included in the Vativis membership.
Does this membership cover hospital care or specialty care?
No, the Vativis membership doesn't cover hospital care, whether it's inpatient or outpatient. Many members choose to have an additional insurance policy to help cover emergencies that aren’t included with Vativis. As for specialty care, while we can manage some chronic conditions, we don’t offer specialty services outside our partner clinics. If you’re already seeing a specialist, it’s best to stick with them.
Can I join Vativis if I have Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare?
Unfortunately, no. Because of insurance regulations, Vativis can’t accept members who have Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare.
Is there a limit on how often I can see a doctor?
Nope! You can visit your physician as often as you need to with Vativis. Just make sure to schedule your visits through our Patient Advocacy Line first. This way, you can get the help you need before using your insurance.
Is Vativis DPC membership available all over the country?
Yes, it’s available across the United States!
