* Our Insurance Policy:
Ruthie Harper, MD is a concierge functional medicine provider. This means that we do not accept any insurance or Medicare.
Concierge medical doctors operate on a cash-pay model rather than accepting insurance for several reasons. Insurance-based medicine requires doctors to see a large number of patients within a short timeframe. This leads to rushed appointments, limited time for thorough assessments, and a focus on treating symptoms rather than addressing the root causes of health issues.
By not relying on insurance, the staff at Ruthie Harper, MD can prioritize quality of care allowing for longer appointment times, personalized attention, and a comprehensive approach to healthcare that focuses on preventive measures, lifestyle interventions, and optimizing overall well-being.
While the upfront cost of concierge medicine may seem higher, the potential benefits in terms of personalized care, proactive health management, and overall quality of life make it a worthwhile investment for those seeking comprehensive, patient-centered functional healthcare that leads to optimal health.
Because we do not accept insurance, you may want to consider programs designed to give individuals tax advantages, which help offset healthcare costs, such as Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), Medical Savings Accounts (MSAs), Health Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) or Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRAs).
