Is Curus right for me?

You don’t need Curus’s healthcare management solutions if…

  • Your PCP is available to you 24/7/365.
  • You know just the right specialist to go to when necessary and how to get an appointment without waiting 3 – 6 months.
  • Your medical records are complete, accurate and easily accessible.
  • You can call your doctor back as many times as you need to with as many questions as you have. Time of day doesn’t matter.
  • You do not need any back up in an emergency. You can handle it.
  • You are happy to be examined by the physician’s assistant. You do not need to see your doctor or speak to her/him on the   phone.
  • You are content to have your medications prescribed by multiple physicians. You do not see the benefit of a clinical pharmacist reviewing your prescriptions for negative interactions or cost containment.
  • You have plenty of time to stay on the phone and coordinate your care. You especially enjoy the repeat conversations, dropped calls and multiple faxes.  Inaction is considered a plus and can be very exciting.
  • You feel great and do not see the the need to pay for healthcare services you are not using. You do not need a plan in place.
  • You never have medical emergencies, and do not expect to have one any time soon.
  • You do not need anyone to advise you about your health insurance.  You fully understand it.
  • With a diagnosis of great concern, you certainly do not need a second opinion at a medical center of excellence. And if you want one, you can coordinate it yourself.
