Question 1

What is Direct Primary Care (DPC)?

Accepted Answer

Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a healthcare model where patients pay directly for care instead of billing insurance. This allows providers to spend more time with patients, offer easier access to care, and build stronger, more personal relationships.

While Tailor Made Health Services is not a traditional monthly DPC membership, we follow many of the same principles—transparent pricing, unrushed visits, and care centered around the individual rather than insurance requirements.

Question 2

How is this different from traditional healthcare?

Accepted Answer

Traditional healthcare systems often involve long wait times, short visits, and complex insurance rules. At Tailor Made Health Services, care is simplified and personalized.
You benefit from:
 • Longer, more meaningful visits
 • Direct access to your provider
 • Transparent, upfront pricing
 • Virtual and in-home care options
 • A focus on prevention, wellness, and long-term health

Question 3

Why would I pay out of pocket if I already have insurance?

Accepted Answer

Insurance is important for major or unexpected medical events such as hospitalizations, surgeries, or specialist care. However, insurance alone does not always provide easy access, longer visits, or personalized care.

By paying directly for your care, you’re investing in:
 • Time and access to your provider
 • Personalized, root-cause focused care
 • Preventive and wellness-based strategies
 • Cost transparency with no surprise bills

Think of insurance as your safety net and Tailor Made Health Services as your everyday partner in health.

Question 4

Do you accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid?

Accepted Answer

Tailor Made Health Services is a cash-pay practice and does not bill commercial insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid for services.

You may still use your insurance outside of our practice for things like:
 • Prescriptions
 • Specialist visits
 • Hospital care
 • Additional lab work (when applicable)

This model allows us to focus fully on you—without restrictions, rushed visits, or red tape.

Question 5

Can I contact my provider after hours?

Accepted Answer

Your health is important to us.
 If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately.

For urgent concerns outside of regular office hours, you may contact your provider by phone, text, or email.

For non-urgent questions, please reach out during regular office hours so we can give your concern the time and attention it deserves.

Question 6

What are GLP-1 / GIP medications?

Accepted Answer

GLP-1 and GIP medications are prescription treatments that mimic natural gut hormones your body already produces. These hormones help regulate:
 • Appetite
 • Blood sugar
 • Digestion
 • How your body uses and stores energy

Question 7

What conditions do GLP-1/GIP medications treat?

Accepted Answer

These medications were originally developed to treat:
 • Type 2 diabetes
 • Insulin resistance
 • Prediabetes or elevated A1C
 • Metabolic syndrome

They help improve insulin response and support healthier blood sugar regulation, which can also support weight management.

Question 8

How do GLP-1/GIP medications support weight loss?

Accepted Answer

GLP-1/GIP medications may support weight loss by:
 • Slowing stomach emptying so you feel full longer
 • Helping reduce appetite and cravings
 • Improving blood sugar balance
 • Supporting more stable energy levels throughout the day

When paired with personalized dosing, guidance, and lifestyle support, many patients find it easier to build sustainable habits and see consistent progress.

Question 9

Is a GLP-1/GIP weight loss program right for me?

Accepted Answer

Every patient is different. Eligibility is determined through a medical consultation that reviews your health history, goals, and lab data when appropriate.

📅 Book a consultation to see if a program is right for you and receive a personalized plan.
