Review your current practice, patient load and demographics, revenue, and insurance processing procedures. Work with an expert to develop a business plan of a direct-pay practice, and compare the expected patient load and demographics and revenue to that of your current practice. Will a direct-pay/concierge practice: Increase your revenue/decrease your expenses? Offer your patients better healthcare by taking decisions out of the hands of the insurance company? Provide your patients easier access to you and your staff? Maintain or attract a sufficient number of patients? Offer you more career satisfaction? Any change can be daunting, but many times, the results are well worth the challenges...

Home-based primary care has a long history in American medicine, and its prevalence is again increasing slowly in the United States in response to a changing demographic, societal, and health-policy climate. There are many models of home-based primary care, including private practice, academic, Veterans Affairs-associated, and concierge practices. There is a growing body of literature supporting the effectiveness of the medical house-call model. New healthcare reform initiatives could further impact the number and size of home-based primary-care practices, including the Independence at Home and the Accountable Care Organization demonstration projects...

Boutique medicine (also referred to as concierge health care, concierge medicine,or retainer medicine) was developed in the mid-1990s in Seattle, Washington. In this model, patients pay an annual or monthly fee to have improved access to health care services. All boutique medical practices are limited to 600 patients. Boutique medicine allows primary care physicians to spend considerably more time with diabetes patients to develop a comprehensive plan of care that includes: medical assessment; individualized education; close follow-up...

BACKGROUND: Concierge medical practice is a relatively new and somewhat controversial development in primary-care practice. These practices promise patients more personalized care and dedicated service, in exchange for an annual membership fee paid by patients. The experiences of patients using these practices remain largely undocumented. OBJECTIVE: To assess the experiences of patients in a concierge medicine practice compared with those in a general medicine practice...

Physicians are not immune to job boredom, which may be brought on by lack of a stimulating job; a job that provides little opportunity for personal growth, development, or advancement; and work settings that are poorly matched to physicians' skills, interests, and capabilities. Common remedies include switching specialties, practicing concierge medicine, and taking locum tenens assignments. Some physicians counter boredom by leaving practice for jobs in the pharmaceutical and managed care industries, as well as other types of medical organizations...

Concierge medicine (also called retainer practices or consumer-focused care) represents a new approach to the delivery of primary care. This model involves more personalized attention and greater resources for individual patients, thus limiting the number of patients who can be served at each practice. All enrolled members must pay an annual membership fee or retainer. Given the short history and novelty of concierge medicine, this article explores the clinical, economic, marketing, ethical, and policy implications of this innovative approach to primary care...

Retainer-medicine primary care practices, commonly referred to as "luxury" or "concierge" practices, provide enhanced services to patients beyond those available in traditional practices for a yearly retainer fee. Adoption of retainer practices has been largely absent in academic health centers (AHCs). Reasons for this trend stem primarily from ethical concerns, such as the potential for patient abandonment when physicians downsize from larger, traditional practices to smaller, retainer-medicine practices.In 2004, the Department of Medicine at Tufts Medical Center developed an academic retainer-medicine primary care practice within the Division of General Medicine that not only generates financial support for the division but also incorporates a clinical and business model that is aligned with the mission and ethics of an academic institution...
