Safe if used appropriately and only when necessary. ✔️ Vaccines do not cause autism. They protect adults and children from serious diseases like measles and whooping cough, reducing hospitalizations and complications. Vaccines are safe and necessary, and science has proven this to be true over the years. 🔗 Learn more: Let’s Get Real About Vaccines 💭 Memberships & Direct Primary Care  💭 Direct Primary Care may be peace of mind for anyone who has no insurance, or high deductibles or will value  time with the doctor to discuss and find solutions.  Here are some other benefits you can share with friends: A few reasons to choose Total Family Wellness and the Direct Primary Care model for elevated medical care: HSA Eligibility: Starting January 1, 2026, patients can use funds from their Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to pay for DPC membership fees, making it more affordable and accessible with pre-tax dollars. Reduced Healthcare Costs: By removing insurance middlemen and focusing on preventative care, DPC lowers overall healthcare expenditures through fewer emergency room visits, reducing need for specialist referrals, and access to discounted labs or services. Enhanced Access and Convenience: Patients enjoy same- or next-day appointments, direct communication with their provider, and more time for in-depth consultations. Flat Monthly Fee: Patients pay a predictable monthly fee for unlimited access to their primary care provider for routine services. High-Deductible Health Plans (HDHPs) can be used to provide coverage for major medical events, such as hospital stays, surgeries, and specialized care. Focus on Prevention: The model emphasizes preventive care to manage chronic conditions and reduce the need for more costly interventions down the line. Employers can reduce overall healthcare costs by 20-40% compared to traditional models, with predictable budgeting and a clear return on investment.  📝With recent federal changes, many of the ACA tax credits are set to expire at the end of the year. That means out-of-pocket expenses for health insurance premiums are expected to increase significantly. For many families, this could mean paying hundreds to thousands of dollars more for plans similar to what they currently have. At Total Family Wellness, we understand how stressful these changes can be. If you or someone you know is affected, our Direct Primary Care membership may be a cost-saving solution. When paired with a high-deductible health insurance plan or a catastrophic health insurance plan (often not available on the marketplace), many patients find they receive the same or even better care at a more affordable overall cost.

Thank you for being a part of the Total Family Wellness community. We look forward to keeping you and your family healthy, safe, and glowing as we head into fall! Warmly, Dr. Trinette Moss & the Total Family Wellness Team For appointments or questions, call us at 727-754-4959 or visit 🌐 www.totalfamilymd.com!
