What is Concierge Medicine?
Concierge Medicine is a “membership-based” model that delivers in-depth and timely care superior to that in a traditional medical setting.
Traditional medical offices can have patient panels of up to 2500+. This creates a bottleneck in how fast a provider can see you and how long he/she can spend with you. Subsequently, after leaving the office, a patient is left on his/her own to navigate roadblocks with insurance denials and an even longer wait time to see a specialist, to name a few.
Such models of care are broken and often leave the patient waiting for medical care and with limited support once the office visit is complete.
As your concierge physician, we limit our panel size to 400 patients and provide you with same-day or next-day appointments. We allocate 60 minutes to establish care with our patients, and our returning patients receive 30 minutes. Your referrals are expedited, and you will be able to access Dr. Kermani's personal cell phone 24/7.
To navigate the complexities of today's healthcare system, we have put a dedicated Care Coordinator to work on your behalf and be your go-to person for any questions. For instance, if you need a referral to a specialist who can see you faster, your care coordinator will call various offices to check on their availability and provide you with a referral to the specialist who is available as soon as possible. The Care Coordinator affords you peace of mind. You will have a direct phone number and email address with same-day response.
If I sign up for the Concierge Medicine plan, will you bill my insurance, and will I still be responsible for co-pays, co-insurance, or deductibles?
We do not bill your insurance once you have signed up for our Concierge Medicine, and you will have no responsibilities to us for co-pays, deductibles, or co-insurances with our office.
How many visits a year do I get with the Concierge Membership program?
There are no limits. We want our patients to be well taken care of without being concerned about restrictions on the number of visits.
What happens if I am admitted to the hospital or have to go to the Emergency Room?
Dr. Kermani stays in close contact with the hospitalist on call. This provides you with the best continuity of care, as Dr. Kermani has access to your chart and can communicate important information to the hospitalist.
