How to Become a Patient?

First we have a scheduled onboarding phone call to discuss your healthcare needs and answer questions. Afterward the patient completes the online comprehensive patient questionnaire, membership agreement, and enrollment fees. Once completed, we will schedule your first appointment. Expect the first appointment to be 1.5-2 hours long.

There is a one-time enrollment fee of $150.

What is Direct Primary Care?

What started off as a small grass roots movement, is now a model to deliver patient care across the country. Direct Primary Care is healthcare that is more supportive and beneficial to the patient while also being a sustainable system for the providers who want to give better, higher quality care.

In most conversations, direct primary care providers will tell you they do not find treating patients like a number rewarding. These providers will tell you they are disappointed with the increasing demands insurance places on provider to get reimbursed and keep the doors open. Providers will also tell you that home visits are out of the question due to how many patients need to be seen a day to meet financial benchmarks.

Providers are choosing the direct primary care model to have closer, more fulfilling relationships with our patients. By leaving the traditional fee for service system (insurance), we can give the healthcare we believed in when we chose this journey.  

Direct Primary Care allows for smaller patient panels and less paperwork, meaning more one-on-one time with our patients by offering a service, while also being compenstated for the hours of work that occurs behind the scenes of patient care.

Patients who are members have longer visits, direct conversations, phone calls, and messages with their primary care provider, with a flat monthly fee.

Do I Still Need Health Insurance?

Yes, insurance is still needed for hospitalizations, specialists visits, labs, ordering medical equipment, diagnostics, and medications. That is why I will request insurance information at time of your admission to the practice, to make referrals and ordering easier.

Some insurance plans like HMOs may make it difficult for primary care providers to send referrals, as we will be considered out of network.

Some insurance providers are now allowing HSA accounts to be used to pay for direct primary care.

What insurance currently does not help patients with is- timely access to their providers, ease of scheduling visits, or improved quality of relationships with their healthcare team.

What is a Nurse Practitioner?

A nurse practitioner (NP) is a registered nurse who underwent additional training and schooling to prescribe, order/interpret diagnostics, send referrals, and treat chronic conditions.

Nurse practitioners choose specialty tracks which involve education and clinical training in a particular field of medicine. My specialty track was adult-geriatric medicine in the primary care setting.

In New Mexico, nurse practitioners can open their own practices, and are independent of medical doctors (MDs).

Is there a Medical Clinic?

No, there is no clinic. I’m a firm believer in home-based care and have been providing house calls to elderly populations for the majority of my 14 years in healthcare. Healthcare started in the home, but with increasing insurance demands, clinics became the norm in order to get as many patients as possible through the door. Let’s bring healthcare back to the home.

What is your Service Area?

I serve patients in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Bernalillo, Placitas, Santa Fe, Corrales, the East Mountains, and Los Lunas.

Who is Apart of Elderflower Primary Care?

My patients, their families, myself, and the community.

I’m the sole provider at Elderflower Primary Care because I regard the quality of patient care a soul service.
