Take Control of Rising Healthcare Costs with Direct Primary Care

At Marshview Direct Primary Care we hear it all the time — insurance premiums keep going up, deductibles are higher than ever, and yet getting an appointment feels harder every year. Wait lists for appointments, endless hold times in call centers, and shrinking visit times are the norm. Many Mainers are paying more for healthcare coverage while getting less access and more stress in return.

Direct Primary Care (DPC) offers a better way. It’s a simple, affordable model that puts you and your provider—not insurance companies—at the center of your care.

Simple, Transparent, and Predictable

With DPC, you pay one flat monthly fee that covers most of your primary care needs—in person or virtual office visits, wellness visits, and some routine labs. There are no copays or surprise bills. You’ll always know exactly what your care costs, which makes it easier to plan and budget for your healthcare. Effective January 2026, federal legislation mandates that HSA funds can be used for DPC membership fees.

At Marshview DPC, we believe in transparency and simplicity. Our goal is to eliminate financial barriers so you can focus on feeling your best—not worrying about what your next visit might cost. At Marshview, we pass along wholesale pricing on many services—often 50–90% less than traditional rates. For example, a lab test that might cost $150 through insurance could be just $15 here. These savings add up quickly, especially for families managing chronic conditions or needing regular follow ups.

Better Access, Fewer Expensive Visits

Because we limit our patient panel, you can get the time and attention you deserve. When my patients are sick or hurt, I make sure to see them on the same or next day. You’ll also have direct access to your primary care provider by phone, text, or email—so if something comes up after hours or on the weekend, you can often get quick advice or treatment without a costly urgent care or ER visit.

Many of our members find that having this kind of access saves them hundreds of dollars a year by avoiding unnecessary visits for things like minor injuries, infections, or medication refills.

A Smarter Way to Manage Your Health

By focusing on prevention, early intervention, and direct, ongoing communication, DPC helps keep you healthier—and helps prevent those expensive emergency visits and hospital stays that often come from delayed care.

At Marshview Direct Primary Care, we’re bringing healthcare back to what it should be: personal, accessible, and affordable. If you’re tired of rising premiums and unpredictable costs, DPC can help you take control of your healthcare spending while giving you better, more personalized care every step of the way.
