What is DPC?

Direct Primary Care is a membership-based medical practice that allows physicians to partner directly with their patients on their primary care needs and personal wellness goals. With a low monthly fee, you gain access to your provider when you need it most. The small patient panel size and eliminating the administrative burden of traditional insurance-based billing systems enable physicians to offer longer office visits, secure virtual appointments, and text and email access when care is needed.  Direct Primary Care (DPC) is not insurance, but a monthly service fee provides you with wellness and primary care services offered by your physician.  You will still need insurance for services outside your physician’s scope of practice, specialty care, emergency room visits, hospitalizations, surgery, and imaging services.  DPC is not a replacement for health insurance but can be a cost-effective companion for patients with a high-deductible or catastrophic health insurance plan. No co-pays at the office visit or bills are submitted to your insurance company.  DPC does not take insurance or Medicare.  Your monthly membership gives you affordable medical care and restores the patient-physician relationship without the intrusion of insurance companies.

About Dr. Dana Ray

Online Video Interview • Dr. Dana Ray, a Southern Illinois University School of Medicine graduate, is a board-certified physician specializing in family and addiction medicine. Her unwavering dedication to her community and patients is widely acknowledged. Dr. Ray has previously held the position of Chief Medical Officer at a federally qualified health center and served as the medical director for an inpatient and outpatient substance abuse clinic. Dr. Ray is also a trained executive coach and mentor to fellow physicians and advanced practice providers. Her contributions have been honored with the Innovative Research in Primary Care Award from the National Association of Community Health Centers.

Dr. Ray’s leadership extends beyond the field of medicine, as she has served in public office, community board service, and spiritual ministry. She is an Army Reserve veteran and a former member of the Decatur City Council for over ten years; her current position as Campus Pastor at Life Changers Church and her involvement in several community boards demonstrate her commitment to serving her community. Despite her numerous professional and social achievements, Dr. Ray is most proud of her role as a wife to Donald Dotson and a mother to their children.

On a more personal note, my decision to become a physician stemmed from a desire to help others, a motivation shared by many in the medical profession. Through establishing my practice, I have sought to align my medical services with my values. At Proven Medical, a direct primary care model enables me to tailor services to individual patient needs, emphasizing a holistic approach. Moreover, my practice strongly emphasizes prevention and wellness, ensuring proactive care to optimize patient health. The goal at Proven Medical is to allocate the necessary time for each patient, ensuring they feel heard and valued while avoiding the common complaints of long wait times and rushed visits often encountered in traditional medical settings. At Proven Medical, you will receive excellent, attentive healthcare. Direct Primary Care, Dr. Dana Ray.
