We had the good fortune of connecting with Lani Braun and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Lani, how does your business help the community?
Healthee MD DPC (Direct Primary Care) offers a transformative approach to healthcare by providing more accessible, timely, and personalized primary care medical services that directly benefit the community. With DPC, patients have direct access to their physician, leading to more proactive and preventative care that can help avoid urgent care and emergency room visits. By eliminating the need for insurance intermediaries, DPC makes healthcare more affordable, helping patients avoid the burdens of high medical bills and debt. Longer appointment times and a focus on individualized care enable doctors to truly understand and address each patient’s unique health needs, fostering stronger relationships and better overall health outcomes. Ultimately, DPC prioritizes not just the treatment of illness but the improvement of quality of life, allowing patients to live healthier, more fulfilling lives with a healthcare model that is both efficient and compassionate.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
What sets Healthee MD apart from traditional medical practices is our focus on accessibility, transparent pricing, and individualized care. As a Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, we prioritize giving patients direct access to their physician, providing timely, personalized care without the constraints of insurance networks or long wait times. Starting a DPC practice like Healthee MD has been an exciting journey, transitioning from being an employed physician in a traditional setting to becoming a business owner in an innovative healthcare model that is just beginning to gain widespread recognition. The biggest challenge I’ve faced is educating patients about the benefits of membership-based medical services. Many are unfamiliar with how this model works and are hesitant to make the switch. However, once they understand that DPC actually improves health outcomes and supports long-term well-being by focusing on prevention and continuous care, they see the value. It’s crucial to educate the public that there are alternatives to traditional healthcare, and patients don’t have to settle for fragmented or impersonal care. Your health is your most important investment, and with Healthee MD, we empower patients to take control of their health in a way that supports a longer, healthier life.
