New patients are being accepted. We specialize in cash-pay (uninsured) care. For cash pay rates, please view "Services Offered" in the online scheduler.

We also invite members of the following insurance plans to join our clinic:

  • Aetna
  • Altius, including other Coventry Health and Medicare plans
  • Great West
  • Regence Blue Cross/Blue Shield, including MedAdvantage Plans
  • Railroad Medicare plan
  • Original Medicare plan and Tri-Care
  • Multi-Plan 
 
 
Update:  IHC will not allow me to sign contracts with them because I do not have a physician associated with my clinic. UHC will only allow physicians to bill for services in an urban area; however, if my office was more than 30 miles from a hospital (their definition of rural), I would be allow to bill for services. Both companies have turned me down as a provider simply because I am not a physician. Interestingly I passed their credentialing reviews without problems, so my track record as an NP is not in question. I simply cannot sign contracts with them because of their INTERNAL policies.
 
Call Representative Jason Chaffetz of District #3 if you are concerned about lack of choice. He is willing to handle this restraint of trade issue through legislative means if the public is concerned about limited choices. I spoke with his office about restraint of trade already and they are interested in helping resolve this matter.

Is an NP Right for Me?

Our clinic is different.  We provide the healthcare that you deserve and that you have been missing.  With our Nurse Practitioner you do not wait in the waiting room or the exam room.  You get all of the medical attention you need every time.  Nobody but you and your nurse practitioner decide what kind of medical care you need.  However we are not right for everyone.  To find out if we are right for you, ask yourself the following questions:

  1. Is my time as valuable as the next person's?
  2. Do I believe should be getting a lot more for my healthcare dollar than I get now?
  3. Do I think my current provider should be more attentive to me?
  4. Would house calls be convenient for me?
  5. Do I really have time in my life to spend waiting?
  6. Am I willing and able to keep an appointment?
  7. Do I deserve better than I'm getting now?
  8. To get the healthcare I deserve, am I willing to pay cash at the time of service and be reimbursed by my insurance plan?
  9. Is being able to schedule an appointment any time of the day or night important to me?
  10. Do I feel like my current healthcare is chaotic and impersonal?

If you can answer yes to these questions, then Doctor Kara, PC Nurse Practitioner Clinic is right for you.  Register now to become a member of Doctor Kara, PC Nurse Practitioner Clinic.
