CARE MODELS

Our Services

Primary Care Concierge Functional Medicine

Choose the care model that best aligns with your goals, needs, and values.

At Family Medical Doctors, all patients receive compassionate, evidence-based medical care. The difference between our care models lies in time, access, depth, and continuity. We offer four options to support different levels of engagement and partnership in your healthcare.

1

Standard Primary Care (Fee for Services)

Comprehensive primary care for day-to-day medical needs — including acute visits, chronic disease management, and preventive care. Appointments are scheduled based on availability and may be time-limited depending on insurance constraints.

Ideal for: Patients with commercial/private insurance who prefer a traditional primary care structure. We do not accept all insurance plans, so please call our office to confirm coverage before scheduling.

Cost: Visits are billed through your insurance. Patients are responsible for copays, deductibles, and non-covered services at the time of visit.

2

Value-Based Primary Care (Medicare Advantage / Medicare ACO)

A coordinated care model emphasizing prevention, continuity, proactive follow-up, and reduction of avoidable ER visits, hospitalizations, and unnecessary specialist visits and testing.

Ideal for: Patients enrolled in Medicare Advantage or Medicare ACO who value stable, relationship-based care with an emphasis on prevention and efficient care coordination.

Cost: Covered by your Medicare Advantage / ACO plan. Copays and deductibles may apply. No additional membership fee.

Functional & Metabolic Medicine Program

Led by Dr. Bharat Desai. A comprehensive, root-cause approach focused on improving metabolic health, reversing chronic disease, and restoring vitality and longevity.

Program Structure: Visit 1 is a comprehensive evaluation; Visit 2 is interpretation and a personalized plan with risk mapping and sustainable next steps.

Ideal for: Patients seeking meaningful health transformation, not maintenance.

Program Cost: $500 total for both evaluation visits, plus follow-ups as needed. Not billed to insurance, though a superbill can be provided.
