5 Reasons You Should Choose An Independent Physician

According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the average person spent $11,172 on healthcare in 2018. With a 4.6% spending growth, people are on the hunt for quality healthcare that doesn’t break the bank. This is why we suggest looking for a physician that is independent and insurance that gives you the freedom to explore all healthcare options.

When you choose an independent physician, you have a doctor who’s free to choose the highest quality and most affordable options for your care. This gives you the flexibility you deserve and not lock you into a system that decides what healthcare options are best for you.

At Center for Lifetime Health, all of our providers are apart of the Independent Doctors of Idaho organization which provides health plans to patients allowing them to explore the physicians and healthcare facilities that work best for them and their needs.

Here are 5 reasons why you should choose an independent physician:

  1. Quality care. Independent physicians have the freedom to diagnose and treat unencumbered by potentially conflicting interests.

  2. Better Health Plan Options. IDID has teamed up with Blue Cross of Idaho to provide health plans all throughout Idaho! This gives you the freedom to choose who YOU want. Don’t forget, open enrollment for 2021 healthcare plans run from November 1st, 2020 to December 15th, 2020!

  3. You’re in charge. Ultimately, you can decide who you want to see! This allows for more avenues that you can explore when it comes to your health.

  4. Lower cost. Independent providers are able to charge less for their services than providers in hospital systems. This is why IDID was formed! To give the patient the opportunity to save money in the long run.

  5. More choices. IDID currently has 600 physicians in 33 specialties and they are continuing to grow! You can check out their full list of physicians on their website.

Don’t just settle when it comes to your healthcare, take charge!
