Question 1

What is Direct Primary Care (DPC)?

Accepted Answer

Direct Primary Care is a membership-based model that removes insurance billing from routine primary care. Members pay a predictable monthly fee in exchange for comprehensive primary care, longer appointments, improved access, and direct communication with their provider.

Question 2

What does my membership include?

Accepted Answer

Membership typically includes annual wellness visits, sick visits, chronic disease management, preventive care, telemedicine, direct provider messaging, care coordination and referrals, same- or next-day appointments when clinically appropriate, annual lab panel, and PAP smears. Additional services such as labs, imaging, medications, and certain procedures are offered at transparent cash prices.

Question 3

Is this health insurance?

Accepted Answer

No. Thryve provides comprehensive primary care, but does not replace catastrophic insurance, hospitalization coverage, or specialty care coverage.

Question 4

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

No. We do not bill insurance for any services. This allows us to focus on care instead of billing codes, prior authorizations, and insurance constraints.

Question 5

Can I use my HSA?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can pay for your Thryve Care membership directly from your Health Savings Account (HSA). Simply use your HSA debit card when signing up or paying your monthly fees — your membership is a qualified medical expense. This means you can use tax-free dollars to cover your entire membership cost.

Question 6

Can I cancel my membership?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Membership is month-to-month and can be canceled at any time by filling out our cancellation form. There are no long-term contracts or penalties.
