Park City, Utah Concierge Medicine Doctor Announces New Blog

PARK CITY, Utah - Oct. 30, 2019 - PRLog -- Kagen MD, a concierge primary care medical practice in Park City, Utah, has announced a new blog written by its lead physician, Michael Kagen, MD. The content will aim to educate the public about concierge medicine, which is also referred to as direct primary care or boutique medicine, and how this approach can be of benefit to those who choose it.

Concierge medicine is a healthcare model in which insurance companies are removed from the doctor-patient relationship. Patients pay a monthly or annual membership fee, much like a gym membership, which enables direct access to their physician and many other benefits unavailable in 'traditional' primary care practices. Because pressure driven by insurance and large healthcare groups to increase the number of patient visits each day does not exist with concierge medicine, patients typically enjoy appointments that are as long as truly necessary to build a relationship between doctor and patient. Other benefits often include telemedicine options and house calls.

"When establishing Kagen MD, I wanted to practice medicine the way I think it should be done in order to maximize the health and well being of my patients. By being able to spend the time needed to get to know them and to connect with them however is convenient for them, I'm able to truly partner with them in their health," said Dr. Michael Kagen.

The new blog focuses on educating the public about direct primary care and topics related to health, wellness and medicine.
