Physicians often express a feeling of loss of control over their businesses even though they bear all the responsibility of a physician-owned practice. Many dermatologists have found a solution in adopting alternative practice models.
One such model is commonly known as direct pay, which is a term sometimes used for a retainer-based payment model, most often when referring to direct primary care (DPC). This is otherwise known as a cash-based practice. Not many specialties, if any, are better positioned for this kind of model than dermatology.
