Preferred access to your primary care doctor for acute medical care (for sick visits or minor injuries), chronic disease management (such as for hypertension, diabetes, thyroid disorders), Pap/pelvic exam, and most common office procedures. Preferred telemedicine scheduling is also available. I am available as often as is medically necessary to take the best care of you with NO CO-PAYS! Deductibles are not included in the membership.
Dr. Jarmon has chosen to resume her Medicare patient panel. Any established patient on Medicare or Medicare Advantage will be exempt from the Membership Model. We will resume your medical services as before. Medicare and Medicare Advantage DO NOT pay a membership fee.
There are no copays. The membership will cover the copay. We will bill the insurance for the visit. Telemedicine means communicating with your doctor about your medical concerns via a phone call, text, email or even a video visit. Many patients are seeking out this type of care between office visits for convenience. I have a free HIPAA-secure “EHR” for all my patients that allows us to do all the above at no additional charge.
Having membership allows Dr. Jarmon to provide comprehensive and dedicated service to a smaller panel. Over the years, Dr. Jarmon acknowledged the complaints of not being able to have same day appointments, sooner appointments, and dedicated communication. However, having to fill the schedule with 25 plus chronic disease patients a day cuts into that personalization. Providing a membership-based practice, Dr. Jarmon will limit her panel to 500-600 patients. Having a smaller patient panel opens more opportunities for a genuine physician-patient relationship.
Patients with Medicaid, CHIP (Children's Health Insurance Program ex AllKids), or private/commercial/government insurance must enroll in the Membership. Deductibles are not included in the membership payments.
Membership is still required. However, the membership cost is not included in the self-pay services. Instead of charging a higher fee per month, we charge per visit. New patient consultation is $120. Established patient consultation is $80. We have discounted lab pricing, office procedures, and vaccine pricing. We will guide you through the healthcare system to help you find more economical options for imaging, procedures, etc.
Membership requires a 3-month commitment that must be renewed every 3 months. There are no refunds within the 3-month commitment period. You must cancel your service prior to the next 3-month billing cycle. If you cancel, you may not use the medical services. You must renew it to remain active.
