What is Concierge Medicine?

Concierge Medicine, or relationship-based medicine, is personalized, accessible care. Concierge physicians have hundreds of patients compared to the thousands traditional primary care doctors see. This allows for better service from the physician, longer, more frequent appointments, 24/7 availability, and preventive care versus reactive care.

Connected Health’s concierge care is the future of healthcare.

Do I need to carry health insurance with my membership?
Health insurance is a personal choice; however, our recommendation is that you continue to carry health insurance to cover lab work, vaccinations, prescriptions, imaging, diagnostic tests, and hospitalizations. We'll often recommend our members move towards a higher deductible, lower premium plan to front-load their healthcare spend on primary care. Why? Because 80% of health needs can be addressed through primary care alone. HSA/FSA dollars may be used to cover all or some of your membership fees, but we encourage you to check with your tax advisor or HSA/FSA plan administrator to confirm.
What happens if I need to go to the ER or become hospitalized?
Our doctors work with a group of reliable hospital physicians who can be entrusted with your administrative care. Our medical team will work closely with the hospital staff and specialists to continue keeping your care as "connected" as possible.
How will I be billed?
Your monthly membership starts the day of your first baseline visit. You will be auto-charged monthly thereafter.
How do I take the next steps?
New members start with a two-hour baseline exam (in-person) and a 30-minute Care Plan Review (virtual) in the following weeks.

Baseline Exam: This is when you will tell us about your medical history, pain points, and health & wellness goals. This first visit is two-hours long, in person. During the exam you will have a full physical, lab work, and health assessments conducted on-site.

Care Plan Review: A follow-up with your care team will take place 2-3 weeks after your baseline exam. This virtual meeting will be used to review your lab work and discuss your Care Plan. Your team will check in regularly to help ensure you are making progress.

Call us to get started: 724-933-4305. We can get you signed up and scheduled in one phone call.
What happens if I need to cancel my membership?
You can can cancel your membership any time with 30 days' notice before your next payment is due to stop future payments. A request for cancellation must be done by email or written letter.
What if I don't live in Pittsburgh?
Our baseline exam and annual physicals must be in-person, however most other services can be rendered virtually.
I have to cross a river to get to you?
Yes, but we believe your health is worth the drive! Our building is conveniently located in Wexford off I-79. And with telemedicine, many appointments can take place virtually from the comfort of your home.

For those who want better when it comes to their health.
