Haven’s Direct Healthcare model makes excellent healthcare more affordable than you would think. An inexpensive membership gives our members access to:
- Wholesale Medications
- Wholesale Labs
- Wholesale Supplies and Tests
- No-cost Primary Care Appointments
Wholesale Medications
Haven Direct Health members have access to most non-controlled-substance prescriptions at wholesale cost, which is often a small percentage of the retail cost. Many common medications are available for just a dollar or two per month. Even better, they are dispensed in-house, saving you a trip to the pharmacy. For many members, the cost savings on medications alone more than covers the subscription cost.
Wholesale Labs
Haven Direct Health members have access to a wide array of diagnostic labs, all at a fraction of retail price. These inexpensive labs give us more complete data on our members’ health earlier on. We can often spot future problems before they become problems, and treat them much less inexpensively, thanks to these affordable labs.
Wholesale Supplies and Tests
Chronic conditions like Diabetes can be treated affordably with a Haven Direct Health membership. Additionally, point-of-care tests, such as flu tests are billed at wholesale — a fraction of the retail price.
No-cost Primary Care Appointments
Your Haven Direct Health membership includes all primary care appointments, virtual consults, and messages at no additional cost. In the conventional healthcare world, “Cost stress” — our term for the stress that comes from worrying about primary care costs — can be a significant barrier to good clinical decision making. Not knowing how much an appointment will cost (or knowing that it will be unaffordable) drives many patients to wait until a condition “gets really bad” to justify the expense of seeing a provider. Delaying care can make many conditions harder and more expensive to treat.
On the flip side, since office visits can be so expensive, patients go in hoping for a quick fix. They will often pressure a provider for a prescription to treat a condition when that condition would be better treated by a “wait and see” approach or by lifestyle changes.
Either way the cost of primary care appointments is often a significant barrier to good clinical decisions. But Haven members can consult with their provider without worrying about the cost. It’s already covered by their membership.
