FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No, PeopleOne Health is an add-on benefit that enhances your health insurance plan. Health insurance can be used to cover major, unexpected, or emergency medical needs like surgery or accidents. PeopleOne Health is Direct Primary Care with additional advanced services. We cover most of your normal and acute medical needs like well and sick visits, minor injuries, routine testing, and chronic condition care. Additionally, you have access to a registered dietitian for nutrition, a licensed pharmacist for medication questions, and a licensed clinical social worker for mental and behavioral health issues.

Your PeopleOne Health plan includes our Direct Care network which can include advanced services such as physical therapy, medical equipment (orthopedic supplies, CPAP, wheelchairs, etc), imaging services, and diagnostic testing. The specific services available on your area are listed in the Partner Services section of this guide. Your care team can assist you in accessing and using these services.

No. You will be required to switch to a PeopleOne Health primary care provider after enrolling. Having one physician ensures continuity of care, and helps you get the most out of your membership. However, if you need to see a specialist or already see one, you may continue to see them using your insurance plan. We simply ask that you communicate this relationship with our team so we can work alongside you and your specialist to coordinate care and ensure you are not charged for services available through PeopleOne Health. Should you need help finding a specialist, your PeopleOne Health provider can help identify someone within your insurance network.

Don’t wait, make your first appointment as soon as possible! The sooner you establish care with us, the better we can support your overall health and can service you faster when you become sick.
