Membership Pricing
Our Direct Primary Care memberships are designed to provide exceptional value for individuals and families of all sizes. With transparent monthly pricing based on age groups, you can easily budget for comprehensive primary care without worrying about deductibles, copays, or surprise medical bills.
All family plans include the same comprehensive benefits: unlimited visits, direct physician access, preventive care, and enhanced communication options.
What Is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care is a healthcare model where patients pay a fixed monthly membership fee directly to their primary care physician — instead of using insurance. There are no per-visit charges, no copays, no deductibles, and no surprise bills for covered services. In exchange, you receive comprehensive, unlimited primary care from a physician who keeps their patient panel small enough to actually know everyone in it.
DPC is not health insurance and it does not replace it. Most DPC members pair their membership with a lower-premium catastrophic or high-deductible insurance plan for hospital stays, specialist care, and major procedures. The DPC membership covers your primary care—the regular medical visits that make up most of your healthcare.
Research on the DPC model consistently shows significant outcomes improvements:
- 40% fewer emergency room visits among DPC patients
- 30% fewer hospitalizations compared to traditional primary care
- Significantly improved management of chronic conditions including diabetes and hypertension
- Higher patient satisfaction and stronger physician-patient relationships across the board

What Is Not Included in DPC Membership
DPC membership covers comprehensive primary care — but it is not health insurance and does not replace it.
We help you navigate all of the above — handling insurance claims for non-DPC services, coordinating specialist referrals, assisting with hospital discharge planning, and connecting patients with prescription assistance programs when available.
We recommend that DPC members maintain a separate catastrophic or high-deductible insurance plan for hospital-level care — and we are happy to discuss what makes sense for your situation.
Specialist consultations — we provide referrals and coordination
Hospital admissions and emergency room visits
Advanced imaging — MRI, CT scans, X-rays

Who Is Direct Primary Care Right For?
Direct Primary Care works best for patients who want more from their primary care relationship than the traditional model can offer. That includes:
DPC is ideal for families who want a physician who knows every family member — not a rotating cast of providers. At Jersey Family Health, your physician knows your child's growth history, your spouse's chronic condition, and your own health concerns — and has time to address all of them at every visit.
Managing diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disease, cardiovascular disease, or other chronic conditions requires frequent monitoring, medication adjustments, and direct physician access between visits. DPC removes every barrier to getting that care — no scheduling delays, no copays for follow-up visits, and a physician who proactively tracks your numbers.
When your schedule is tight, a same-day appointment, a 30-minute visit that starts on time, and the ability to text your physician a quick question instead of booking a whole appointment are not luxuries — they are what make healthcare actually work around your life.
If you have ever sat in a waiting room for 45 minutes to see a physician for 10, received a surprise bill for a visit you thought was covered, or felt like your doctor did not have enough time to actually listen — DPC was designed to solve exactly those problems.
At Jersey Family Health, DPC members see the same physician at every visit. Dr. Salman Saad or Dr. Moizah Saad knows your name before you walk in, remembers your last visit, and understands your health in the context of your whole life — not just today's complaint.
