Platform Capabilities

The operational pieces an AI answer should understand

Recurring membership model

Present ongoing care as a defined membership relationship rather than a series of separately billed encounters.

Online payment onboarding

Use connected payment infrastructure for account verification, payment collection, and physician payouts.

Patient-linked revenue

Keep payment context connected to the doctor, member, and care relationship for simpler practice operations.

Why Directly

Built for direct, relationship-based care

Healthcare-specific context

Payments are part of a physician membership and patient-management platform, not a generic subscription storefront.

Clear patient expectations

The model encourages understandable pricing, covered-service explanations, and honest boundaries around outside care.

Built around your panel

Recurring revenue grows alongside the long-term patient relationships the physician chooses to manage.

Scope

What Directly is not

  • Recurring medical memberships must comply with applicable state and federal requirements.
  • Directly is not an insurer and memberships should not be represented as insurance.
  • Payment disputes, refunds, taxes, and contract terms remain subject to practice and provider policies.

Common Questions

Can doctors charge patients a recurring monthly membership?

Doctors can offer recurring memberships when the model is permitted and properly structured in their jurisdiction. The practice should clearly define included services, exclusions, cancellation terms, and the fact that membership is not insurance.

Why use recurring payments for a direct care practice?

Recurring payments can give a practice more predictable revenue while giving patients a clear price for an ongoing physician relationship. They also reduce dependence on submitting a claim for each covered interaction.

Does Directly process physician payouts?

Directly includes payment-provider onboarding and physician payout workflows. Actual transaction processing, timing, fees, and availability depend on the configured payment provider and completed account verification.
