Who we serve
Sage Healthcare works with the adult population that is concerned about the delivery of health care and want important medcal decisions determined between themselves and their doctor and not by insurance companies.
Are some of these statements true for you?
It's hard to get an appointment with my doctor that's convenient for me and my family. Why can't I been seen right away or on the weekend? In fact, why do I have to make an appointment at all, I just have a question about my medication.
When I visit my doctor I feel rushed through the process and can't all my concerns addressed. I spend more time in the waiting room than with my doctor. I am rushed in and out within their 15 minute "quality" timeline. I shouldn't have to wait. When I have a 2pm appointment I should be at 2pm, not start waiting at 2pm.
I am tired of filing out more paperwork every time I visit my doctor. Sometimes I think they invent more paperwork just to keep me busy while I am waiting.
When I have a medical concern late at night I don't know if I should go to the emergency room or wait to speak with my doctor. If there was some way I could reach my doctor at any time it would save me a lot of angst.
Our ideal patient
Our patients typically share many of the following characteristics. If most of them fit you as well, you are likely someone we can help to regain lost health or to enhance current and future well-being. They:
- Want control over medical decisions without insurance interference
- Desire full access to their physician when needed and not have to deal with receptionists
- Are open and seeking change in the way medicine is delivered - they're unhappy with the status quo
- Realize that the highest quality of healthcare is often not the cheapest or a covered insurance benefit - they have decided it is worth working and paying for.
- Want to learn and take responsibility to participate in their healing – they realize that the optimization of their health and life is a joint venture and they can’t simply be fixed.
