The Direct Care Foundation, or DCF, is dedicated to promoting and supporting the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model through various initiatives and activities.

Here are some of the key ways that the DCF supports DPC:

  • Advocacy and Legislation: The DCF advocates for policies that support the DPC model at both the state and federal levels. It works to influence healthcare legislation, ensuring that laws and regulations are favorable to DPC practices and their patients.
  • Education and Awareness: The DCF provides educational resources and information about the benefits and principles of DPC.
  • Research and Data: A key DCF goal is to support research on the effectiveness and benefits of Direct Primary Care.
  • Community Building: By connecting like-minded individuals and organizations, the DCF facilitates networking, collaboration, and the sharing of best practices among DPC practitioners.
  • Patient Education: The DCF educates patients about the advantages of DPC, helping them to understand how Direct Primary Care can improve their healthcare experience.

Through these efforts, the DCF helps to ensure that DPC remains a viable and growing option for both healthcare providers and patients.
