Five years ago, my practice partner Dr. Amy Cianciolo and I started down the magical road of direct primary care (DPC), leading away from a frustrating and inadequate healthcare system. This model of care was the closest thing to achieving the healthcare quadruple aim of lowering costs, improving health, and increasing both patient and physician satisfaction.

After a year or so, employers large and small started asking for our high access, low costs direct care. This audiobook is the culmination of years of experience working with employers (small and large), the magic, and the mistakes. This guide is made from the DPC physician's perspective, and the DPC physician is the main focus to learn how to approach employers, work with them, and their benefits advisors. In addition, there are specific sections for employers and benefits advisors to learn about DPC, and how together, all three groups can work to achieve some magic and miracles.

Important Topics include:

• For DPC clinics, what are the advantages and disadvantages of working with employers?
• How do DPC physicians connect with employers in their area?
• How do DPC physicians find DPC knowledgeable benefits advisors in the area?
• For employers and employees, what are the DPC advantages?
• How can benefits advisors and employers find and vet DPC physicians?
• What “reg flags” should everyone look out for regarding DPC clinics, employers, and advisors?
• How do DPC clinics handle pricing and the legal issues when working with employers?
• How do DPC clinics get large numbers of new employees integrated into their clinic?

These topics are merely the opening act of the Magic, Pixie Dust, and Miracles that await you in this audiobook.
