    Cost Savings
    We constantly search for best prices on laboratory services, imaging, and medications to lower the cost of your care.

    In 2018, Dr. T. Scott McMurry began looking for a way to improve on how primary care could be delivered in the US. He recognized that the standard model was holding back doctors from truly connecting with their patients, which was preventing high quality care. After years of research and learning, he was able to connect with a robust network of doctors who were doing that very thing, and they called it Direct Primary Care.
     
     Starting in January of 2023, Waiola Direct Care has opened its doors to provide something new and valuable to the people of West Hawaii. We are using the lessons learned from the thousands of Direct Primary care practices that exist all over the US. We are working with local and healthcare businesses to help to lower the costs of care for our members. We want to restore the traditional Doctor/Patient relationship and provide the exceptional level of care that our community deserves.
