Welcome back, all you DPC rebels and resistance fighters. Dr Shane is back with another Friday 5 Minute Magic Tip. As we slide into Labor Day weekend, let's talk about what is really holding employers back from adopting DPC into their health plans. Is it money? Fear of the unknown? Or lack of knowledge of how a health plan would work with DPC? Let's drill down into it so DPC docs and benefits advisors can open up some eyes.

Welcome back all you DPC rebels and resistance fighters. Dr. Shane is back with another Friday 5-Minute Magic Tip, and today we talk about the costs of starting a new DPC practice. Do you need $100K to do that or a $million? Nah, most DPC docs start with way less. Let me share some success stories and one article about spending lots of money to start: https://northcountrynow.com/stories/local-physicians-invest-more-than-2-million-in-new-direct-primary-care-clinic-in-canton,383729

Welcome back all you DPC rebels and resistance fighters. Dr. Shane is back with another Friday 5-Minute Magic Tip, and today we are speaking to the medical students--the future of healthcare. I recently spoke to medical students on the Benjamin Rush Institute podcast about the power of autonomy in primary care (link to video is here: https://benjaminrush1776.substack.com/p/recap-why-autonomy-matters-the-case)
I was asked what students should do NOW to get ready for working in DPC in the future--two things I explained.

Welcome back, all you DPC rebels and resistance fighters. Dr Shane is back with another Friday 5-Minute Magic Tip, and today we talk about why urgent care centers are NOT primary care. I've worked in direct primary care and urgent care each for over 10 years and have operated my own urgent care center. Now doing full-on DPC. The mindset of DPC is so different from urgent care. Let's compare the philosophies, staff, workflow, and incentives of urgent care centers with DPC — they're not even close to the same. DPC is more than a payment model.
Here's the article I mention in the video: https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2026/08/03/care-model-employer-cut-cost-improve-benefit.html
