Christopher Habig discusses why direct primary care is growing. As Cofounder and CEO of Freedom Healthworks, Chris helps launch DPC practices across the nation, so he shares the value propositions for how clinicians, consumers, and yes, even startups and entrepreneurs, are benefiting from this often-misunderstood care model. 

All that, plus the Flava of the Week about VillageMD’s part in helping reduce costs of care through direct contracting. How did ACO Reach reduce costs by over $800 million in 2022, and how can we better focus on the financial models that provide opportunities to be more consumer-centered? 

This show is produced by Shift Forward Health, the consumer advisory firm and community that's writing the playbook for consumer-first health. (#296)
