Welcome 2018

“Nuts and Bolts

to 2.0”

Empowering PhysiciansImproving Healthcare

Patient CareF O U N D A T I O N

4DOCSDirect Primary Care began in this

generation as an epiphany. It has at

times felt like fighting for a guerrilla

cause. Today, I am amazed to see it

launching into a full blown national movement.

The Docs 4 Patient Care movement launched nearly a

decade ago in response to the impact of national policy on

the men and women on the front lines of medicine.

Stymied by the politics of it all, we turned to working

in the area of America’s success - freedom and local

governance. In free market solutions and educating local

leaders on the benefits of the doctor / patient relationship,

the future of American health care is brightening.

Today, the D4PC Foundation is the launching pad that is

working to unshackle and improve health care in three of

the most critical areas - MOC (maintenance of certification),

CON (certificate of need), and the rocket ride you are on

here today, DPC (Direct Primary Care).

This DPC conference stands at the vanguard of the

movement. We are here to accelerate

the transfer of experience and knowledge in the DPC practice model

and build an unstoppable movement.

As I said last year, seize the day, network, find mentors, and be a mentor. Welcome to the DPC family.

Lee Gross, M.D.President, D4PCF

We are very pleased to have this opportunity to sponsor another timely Docs 4 Patient Care Foundation Conference.

One of the key missions of the Physicians Foundation is to empower physicians and support them in their efforts to sustain their practices in what has become an increasingly hostile practice environment, and this conference does just that in helping physicians to take control of their own destiny.

We applaud the Docs 4 Patient Care Foundation for its continuing efforts dedicated to helping practicing physicians navigate the difficult terrain, and we expect this conference to be another rousing success!

Best wishes to all,Gary Price, M.D., President

The Docs 4 Patient Care Foundation was created by practicing physicians with a combined experience of over 140 years of direct patient care.

Our doctors have extensively studied the problems in the health care sector and have devoted thousands of hours analyzing the issues and developing solutions that make sense for America.

Collaborating with leaders in the national health care policy community, legislators, business experts and the media has allowed us to develop common sense workable alternatives from our unique perspective.

Beginning from the ground up with a clear focus on the sanctity and value of the relationship between a doctor and a patient, ideas and proposals have been developed which address the needs of all patients and the profession dedicated to serving them.

Understanding healthcare at the most intimate and private primary level, the point of interaction between the patients and their doctor, sets us apart from other experts in the field.

The Docs 4 Patient Care Foundation (D4PCF) is a 501(c)(3) non-partisan, non-profit organization that promotes free-market health care policy solutions to address America’s increasing health care challenges.

Our mission is to preserve the sanctity of the doctor-patient relationship and ensure that health care is of the highest quality, accessible, affordable, and private for all Americans.

D4PCF was founded in 2014 as an educational project led by actively practicing physicians to advance health care freedom. The foundation arose from the efforts of Docs 4 Patient Care, a 501(c)(6) membership organization established in 2009 in response to the national debate over the Affordable Care Act.

D4PCF is unique among other non-profit organizations working in the health care policy space for this very important reason: D4PCF’s board is comprised entirely of actively practicing physicians from various areas of medicine and surgery; doctors who possess hands-on, practical knowledge of our health care system and who, by virtue of their real-life experience, contribute a much-needed perspective on policy solutions.
