Direct Primary Care in Collingswood, NJ

Most people have come to accept the current state of primary care – rushed appointments, long waits, a physician who seems to be managing a dozen other things at once. What they don't always know is that this is not inevitable. It is the direct result of a system built around insurance reimbursement, where the economics of traditional practice require physicians to see as many patients as possible, leaving little room for the thing that makes primary care work: the relationship between a patient and their doctor.

Direct Primary Care (DPC) removes that layer entirely. Patients pay their physician directly through a flat monthly fee, with no insurance involved in the care relationship. No billing codes. No administrative layer between a patient and their doctor. In exchange, patients receive comprehensive primary care from a physician who has the time, bandwidth, and incentive to actually know them. It is not a new idea. It is medicine returning to what it was always supposed to be.

In a Direct Primary Care practice, the structure is straightforward. A patient pays a flat monthly membership fee directly to their physician. In return, they receive comprehensive primary care – unlimited visits, extended appointments, direct access to their doctor, and care that is built around their individual health, not a standardized protocol.

• No insurance billing for primary care. The physician works for the patient, not a payer. Decisions are made on clinical grounds, not reimbursement criteria.
• Unlimited visits. There is no financial barrier to being seen. Patients access care when they need it – not when they can justify the copay.
• Extended appointments. Every visit is 30–60 minutes. Enough time for a complete conversation, a thorough examination, and a care plan that actually addresses the full picture.
• Direct physician access. Patients communicate directly with their physician – not a call center, not a nurse triage line. The person who knows their history is the person they reach.
• Continuity. One physician. One relationship. A doctor who knows your history, your concerns, and your goals – and builds on that knowledge over time rather than starting over at every visit.
• Proactive, prevention-focused care. With time to think carefully about each patient, DPC physicians practice medicine the way evidence supports – leading with prevention, monitoring chronic conditions rigorously, and addressing concerns before they become crises.

DPC covers primary care only. It is not a replacement for health insurance – most members maintain a high-deductible plan for specialist visits, hospitalizations, or other needs outside primary care.

"We built Cimri because the model of care we trained for as physicians and the model patients deserve requires something the conventional system stopped making room for: time. Time to listen. Time to think. Time to build the kind of physician-patient relationship that actually changes health outcomes. Direct Primary Care gives that back, and Cimri Medical is how we practice medicine when nothing is in the way."
