Wellness and prevention are two of the most important components of healthcare. When it comes to prevention, one of the best things you can do for your health is to get annual bloodwork done. With a simple lab draw, your primary care provider can detect a wide variety of health problems, including diabetes, anemia, heart disease, kidney disease, cancer, and more. That’s why it’s so important to get annual bloodwork done; it’s a simple way to catch potential problems early and get ahead of them. There’s no excuse not to get tested—especially when Strada Healthcare offers membership plans that include annual bloodwork at such an affordable price. Our memberships include the following annual labs:
Getting annual bloodwork done is a smart investment in your health—and your wallet. Don’t wait until you’re sick to get tested; by then it may be too late.

The membership medicine model – also known as Direct Primary Care – is a type of subscription-based healthcare service that is becoming increasingly popular among small businesses. There are many benefits to using this type of model, including improved employee health, increased productivity, and lower healthcare costs. Let’s take a closer look at each of these benefits.
Improved Employee Health:
One of the biggest benefits of a membership medicine model is that it can lead to improved employee health. This is because employees will have access to preventive care services, which can help them catch health problems early and avoid more serious health issues down the road. In addition, by leveraging the power of data, membership medicine models can provide employees with personalized care plans that are tailored to their individual health needs. This type of individualized care can help employees stay healthy and improve their overall well-being.
Increased Productivity:
Another benefit of a membership medicine model is that it can lead to increased productivity. This is because healthier employees are generally more productive employees. When employees have access to quality healthcare, they are less likely to miss work due to illness or injury. In addition, they are also more likely to be able to focus on their work when they are feeling healthy and well. As a result, businesses that use a membership medicine model can see a boost in productivity from their employees.
Another benefit of using a membership medicine model is that it can help businesses save money on healthcare costs. This is because subscription-based healthcare models are affordable and typically offer discounts for things like labs, imaging, and some specialist visits, which can help businesses reduce their overall healthcare spending. In addition, membership medicine models often include preventative care services, which can help businesses avoid the high costs associated with treating more serious health conditions down the road.
There are many benefits to using a membership medicine model for small businesses. These benefits include improved employee health, increased productivity, and lower healthcare costs. If you’re looking for ways to improve your small business’s bottom line, then a membership medicine model may be right for you!
Many people have experience using telemedicine, especially with the advent of COVID-19. But most telemedicine experiences are not personalized: patients are talking to a doctor who doesn’t know them. Direct Primary Care changes this. Patients in Direct Primary Care can speak to their doctor whenever they need to, even if its after hours or on weekends.
Mothers are some of the busiest people on the planet. They are constantly juggling work, family, and social obligations. So when they do get sick, the last thing they want to do is sit in a waiting room for hours only to see a doctor for five minutes. That’s where Direct Primary Care comes in. DPC doctors are available 24/7, so busy moms can get the care they need when they need it, without having to take time off from work or miss their child’s soccer game.
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a type of healthcare that allows patients to have direct access to their primary care physician, usually through a monthly membership fee. This relationship gives patients more time with their physician, more personalized care, and more convenience overall. And since DPC doctors are not beholden to insurance companies, they can spend more time focusing on their patients’ individual needs rather than meeting insurance guidelines.
DPC doctors are often able to offer same-day or next-day appointments, extended office hours, and 24/7 availability via phone or email. They also tend to have smaller patient panels which allows them to get to know their patients on a more personal level. This deepens the relationship between patient and physician and leads to better health outcomes overall. And because DPC doctors are not incentivized to order unnecessary tests or procedures, patients can be confident that they’re only getting the care they need and nothing more.
The bottom line is that Direct Primary Care is a great option for mothers who want more personalized care from their primary care physician. DPC doctors are available 24/7 and have extended office hours which makes it easy for mothers to get the care they need without having to sacrifice their work or family obligations. Additionally, DPC doctors have smaller patient panels which allows them to get to know their patients on a more personal level and provide better overall care. If you’re looking for a more personalized telehealth experience, Direct Primary Care is definitely worth considering.
