ABOUT THE PANGEA DIRECTCARE™ DPC
PRACTICE LAUNCH SUMMIT
Primary care is at a breaking point. Rising administrative burden, declining reimbursement, and physician burnout are forcing clinicians to rethink how care is delivered. At the same time, patients and employers are demanding better access, transparency, and outcomes at a lower cost. Direct Primary Care (DPC) has emerged as one of the most powerful, physician-led solutions to transform healthcare delivery while restoring the joy of practicing medicine.
PRACTICE LAUNCH
The Pangea DirectCare™ DPC Practice Launch Summit is designed to equip physicians with the knowledge, tools, and real-world step-by-step insights needed to successfully launch and expand a Direct Primary Care practice.
DIGITAL PLATFORM
All participants will be introduced to technology & resources that provide physicians with essential tools, integrated vendor relationships, and a robust pipeline of new patients sourced through the Pangea Wellness employer ecosystem— everything needed to operate a successful, scalable DPC practice.
COMMUNITY
Our platform also includes a collaborative physician community where members can connect, share insights, and accelerate their journey toward building a sustainable, independent Direct Primary Care practice.
PCPs SHOULD OPEN A DPC

Burnout Reduction & Work-Life Balance
Fewer patients per day, reduced documentation burden, and no insurance-driven bureaucracy.
2
More Autonomy & Better Patient Care
No insurance billing, longer visits (30–60 minutes), smaller patient panels, and decisions driven by clinical judgment.
3
Predictable, Recurring Revenue
Dramatically lower billing and administrative costs, fewer denied claims, and increased income potential.
4
Diversification Without Risk
Launch a new DPC or operate in parallel, hedging against declining fee-for-service reimbursement.

PANGEA DIRECTCARETM SUMMIT SPEAKERS
The Pangea DirectCare Summit is our first annual gathering of leading physicians interested in Direct Primary Care practices. Across the country, DPC physicians are reporting lower burnout, stronger patient relationships, improved clinical outcomes, and significantly improved work-life balance.
Our speakers are not consultants or theorists—they are practicing DPC physicians who have navigated the transition firsthand. They bring real-world experience, transparent financial insights, and practical lessons learned from launching, growing, and operating DPC practices in today’s healthcare environment.
Throughout the Summit, speakers will share candid perspectives on what worked, what didn’t, and what they would do differently if starting again—giving attendees actionable insight they can apply immediately, not years from now.

Who does what
Where support exists
Where you are not alone

Escalating Healthcare Costs & Workforce Strain
U.S. healthcare spending continues to skyrocket, with insurance premiums projected to grow 7-9% in 2026 alone. Deductibles, co-pays, and out-of-pocket burdens increase year over year.
We Provide Measurable Patient Volume
We help employers cut healthcare costs by 20–70%, delivering measurable ROI versus constant rising premiums. This creates unparalleled patient acquisition opportunities for DPC physicians.
DPC: A Model on the Rise
From 2022 to 2024, DPC membership per 100,000 people grew 626%, while active DPC clinicians rose 468%.
DPC Regulatory Support
With recent HR-1 legislation enabling tax-free DPC benefits in 2026, DPC physicians are not just aligned with a growing trend—they are timed to ride the next wave of policy-driven adoption.
Differentiated DPC Value Proposition
Few healthcare models can claim both lower cost AND better outcomes. DPC physicians position themselves as the rare convergence of financial efficiency and clinical impact - an irresistible value driver.

Direct primary care has exploded in the last decade, going from 140 practices to nearly 3,000 in the United States, according to data from the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine and DPC mapper.

A doctor you can text, call, and see within a day?
There’s one thing both sides agree on: the model has emerged because the primary care system is broken, with a dire shortage of doctors, physicians complaining of burnout, and patients waiting weeks or months for appointments with a practitioner — if they can even find one.

Why Wait? I Opened My DPC Practice Right After Residency
I could finally wake up and live my values on my own terms every day. I felt the culmination of years of training, studying and late-night calls. It had all been worth it.
