In this episode of the My DPC Story podcast, Dr. Ben Aiken of Lantern Health, a family physician with a background in international studies and public health, delves into the innovative model of Direct Primary Care (DPC), where a low monthly membership allows patients to build lasting relationships with their doctors. Dr. Aiken shares his journey from being part of a traditional health system to establishing an independent DPC practice unexpectedly. He emphasizes the importance of community-oriented care, system-level healthcare change, and the role of health coaches in primary care. The episode also touches upon the challenges and successes of transitioning a DPC practice, branding, staff roles, and fostering a supportive environment for other physicians to join the DPC movement. Lastly, he reflects on the broader implications and potential growth of the DPC model in the future of American healthcare.
