What are the utilization rates and costs of service of a comprehensive primary care model that incorporates employer-sponsored on-site, near-site, and virtual primary care?
In this cohort study of 23,518 commercially insured employees, the employer-sponsored services cost a mean (SD) of $87 ($32) per member per month after accounting for infrastructure and service costs, with members using the model clinics for most of their primary care having higher primary care costs but lower total health care costs in a matched cohort analysis controlling for demographics, diagnoses, and risk.
