We're here for you. All the time.

A better kind of family medicine, without the hoops.

BlueFire Med is a direct primary care practice. You pay a low monthly membership and never pay for a visit again. We spend more time with you, see you the same day, and skip the insurance red tape entirely. Our patients love this model. We think you will too.

Fewer patients, more time

We cap our practice at around 600 patients per physician, a fraction of the typical 2,000 to 4,000. That means same-day scheduling, longer appointments, and a doctor who remembers your story.

Insurance-free, hassle-free

We don't bill insurance, and most of our patients actually save money. Keep your high-deductible plan for the big stuff, and let BlueFire handle the everyday care for one predictable fee.

Common questions

What to know about direct care.

What is direct primary care?
Direct primary care (DPC) is a membership model. Instead of billing insurance for every visit, you pay one low monthly fee that covers your primary care. It lets us keep our patient panel small, spend more time with you, and skip the insurance paperwork that slows everything down.
Is this health insurance?
No. BlueFire is not insurance, and it's not a replacement for it. We recommend keeping a high-deductible or catastrophic plan for hospitalizations, surgeries, and major emergencies. BlueFire handles your everyday and ongoing care, and most members end up saving money overall.
What's included in my membership?
Unlimited office visits with no copay, direct access to your provider by phone, text, and email, same-day and next-day scheduling, longer appointments, deeply discounted labs and imaging, wholesale-priced medications, and many in-office procedures at no extra cost.
What about labs, imaging, and medications?
Because we don't work through insurance, we pass wholesale and negotiated pricing straight to you. Many common labs and medications cost a fraction of what you'd pay elsewhere, and we'll always tell you the price up front.
Can I use my HSA?
Many members pair an HSA with BlueFire to cover labs, imaging, and prescriptions. We're happy to help you find the combination of membership and coverage that saves you the most.
What if I need a specialist or the hospital?
We coordinate your care. If you need a specialist, imaging, or hospital care, we help guide and refer you, and we stay involved so nothing falls through the cracks. Your insurance covers those larger services as usual.
How do I become a patient?
Enrollment takes just a few minutes online, or call or text us at 785-539-9218 and we'll get you set up. We're gladly accepting new patients.
