US EditionLetter to the Editor: Beware of Half-Truths Around Direct Primary Care
UNITED STATES, JUL 10 – The U.S. Senate approved $290 billion in SNAP cuts that shift costs to states and limit benefit updates, risking increased food insecurity for millions, experts warn.
- Mr. Cotton's July 6, 2025 Montana editorial offers a limited perspective on the direct primary care model and the scope of services it typically includes.
- The editorial omits that DPC clinics offer services like screenings, chronic-condition management, and sudden illness care, but do not coordinate with Medicare or Medicaid.
- Reviews recommend that DPC members maintain additional high-deductible insurance costing an average $7,170 annually to cover hospitalizations, surgeries, and medications beyond routine care.
- The average DPC membership fee in Montana is $87 per month, which primarily covers routine health care, prompting caution about assuming comprehensive coverage at this rate.
- This analysis suggests that while DPCs may suit healthy individuals, they cannot replace traditional insurance for broader health risks, indicating significant gaps in current care models.
