You pay every month. Why does getting care still feel like another financial decision?
For a family of four, premiums are only the beginning. Visits, medications, labs, and imaging can add more—and the final price isn’t always clear beforehand.
Let’s make the math simple.
Here’s an illustrative family budget—not actual quotes or a Presence family package.
What does DPC change?
Your membership pays for the included primary care services, with:
Access: Direct communication with your physician.
Time: Room to investigate and discuss multiple concerns.
Clarity: A known membership price and a clear explanation of extra charges.
Aligned incentives: An ongoing relationship instead of a separate insurance claim for every included visit.
One important distinction
Healthsharing is not insurance. Medical bill payments are not guaranteed, and exclusions can leave substantial costs with your family. Lower monthly payments do not mean equal financial protection.
Massachusetts residents should verify that their arrangement meets state coverage requirements or that an exemption applies. DPC also works alongside comprehensive insurance.
The Presence difference
Presence Essential Care is $99/month. Labs, imaging, and medications cost extra. Contact us about household eligibility and pricing; the family example above is not our quoted package.
Know what you’re paying. Understand what you’re getting. Have time with your doctor.
