Build a lasting relationship with a provider who has time to listen. Wellness Pointe offers longer appointments, preventive care, ongoing support and same day appointments when available through one transparent monthly membership.
Primary care with time for you
Family primary care in Chehalis, Washington
Direct Primary Care is a membership based approach to family primary care. Instead of billing insurance for routine primary care visits, members pay a predictable monthly fee for access to the services included in their membership.
At Wellness Pointe, this means more time for meaningful conversations, easier access to care and a provider who can get to know your health history, needs and goals.
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care is not health insurance. Wellness Pointe does not bill insurance for primary care visits included in the membership. Members may still use insurance for prescriptions, laboratory testing, imaging, specialist care and other outside services when applicable.
More time
Longer appointments give you space to ask questions, discuss multiple concerns and better understand your care.
Easier access
Membership includes primary care visits, same day appointments when available and telehealth when appropriate for your needs.
Predictable membership costs
Primary care visits included in your membership do not have separate copays or deductibles at Wellness Pointe.
Ongoing relationships
Receive care from a provider who can follow your health over time and adjust your care plan as your needs change.
