Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is concierge medicine?

A: Concierge medicine is a personalized, fee for service model for practicing primary care.  Concierge medicine makes it easier for patients to have access to their primary care provider and to receive care from their doctor that is relational, timely, and accurate. It’s like having your own personal doctor to contact in a moment’s notice about any medical concerns you have.

Q: How much does a membership to Prestige Medical Care cost?

A: Memberships are $90/month for adults (18 and older) and $45/month for children (birth – 17; no adult membership required to only cover a child).  Memberships are for six months with the option to renew to continue excellent medical care and service.

Q: Do I have to be a member to use services provided by Prestige Medical Care?

A: If you are currently not a member but would like to be seen, we offer One Time Consultation appointments with the hope you will be highly satisfied with the care you received and want to continue with a membership.  The other services we offer (Rapid Result Testing, IV Infusion Therapy, Skin Biopsies, Joint Injections, Weight Loss programs and Go Sober Alcohol Addiction Treatment) do not require a membership to benefit from excellent care and cost effective pricing.

Q: Is medical care by appointment only?

A: Patients need to make an appointment for routine medical visits (consultations, wellness visits, check ups,).  

Q: Will my insurance be billed?

A: The nature of concierge medicine is that is works well outside of insurance.  The cost of your membership is comprehensive and covers every visit, every time (including x-rays), so we will never bill your insurance for a service that is covered by your membership.  There are no copays nor is there a deductible to satisfy.  If there is a need for a unique lab that we cannot perform in house, extensive imaging (MRI or CT scan), or a pathology report necessary, your insurance will be billed or you will be given the option to pay the cash discount prices.  A membership with Prestige works well as a stand alone medical coverage as it meets the needs of what most families actually use for medical care.  It also works well to supplement catastrophic or traditional medical insurance coverage.
