FAQ
What Does Tidal Wellness Do?
We are a family medicine practice. Our goal is to be your medical home, providing comprehensive quality care from physicals, to sicks visits, and management of chronic diseases like diabetes and more to all ages.
What does Integrative Medicine Mean?
Integrative medicine means we use both traditional western medicine like labs, imaging, medication, cutting edge technology using laser and shock wave treatments; but we also incorporate alternative treatments such as massage, acupuncture, osteopathic manipulation, essential oils , suppliements, and more. We use evidence to guide us on what treatments work, and which ones don't.
What is Direct Primary Care?
Direct Primary Care (DPC) is a model of medicine in which we have cut out the middle man of insurance creating both a direct personal and financial relationship between patient and doctor. By doing this our patients are often able to save large amounts on medications, lab tests, procedures, and more. In addition they have their personal doctor's contact information so they can communicate directly when needed instead of going through multiple layers of staff to reach their physician. It also allows us the time to spend 30-60min for most visits and and form a relationship with our patients.
I have insurance, why would I pay cash?
Very often our cash pricing on labs, medications, procedures and more is less than what you would pay through your health insurance. Sometimes this can be 85-90% lower pricing for the same quality product. If you have a higher deductible plan that you often never meet or barely meet, we likely will save you out of pocket expenses. Still not sure? We do free meet and greet visits to help you understand the model and if it is right for you?
What health insurance plans pair best with a DPC model?
We believe all patients can benefit from our high quality, personal care regardless of insurance status. If you are looking to save the most money then high deductible plans, catastrophic plans, short term insurance, cost sharing plans, and those without insurance will likely benefit the most financially.
