How does the General Preventive Medicine program work?
A patient enrolled in the General Preventive Medicine Program pays an annual enrollment fee, either in one lump sum each year or quarterly to spread the payments out over the year. The fee is paid with the assumption the patient will see the doctor at least once per quarter (every 3 months). Often physicians charge “extra” for co-pays and deductibles and other fees the insurance will not cover. Dr. Ward does not require this additional payment, so the only payment to him from the patient is the enrollment fee for all services in the Program.
