No. Homegrown Pediatrics does not accept or bill insurance and is considered out-of-network for all plans. Families pay the monthly membership fee directly. The practice does recommend that families carry health insurance to cover hospitalizations, specialist visits, imaging, and medications.

Membership covers unlimited in-person visits, text messages, phone calls, and video chats with Dr. Lindner. Members pay no copays and receive no surprise bills.

Families with high-deductible health plans or healthshare plans often find those a practical complement to DPC membership. PPO plans make specialist referrals easier when needed. The practice does not recommend HMO or Medicaid plans as the primary complement, and families should discuss their specific situation with their insurance provider.

Dr. Lindner requires vaccination for her patients. The practice bills vaccines to insurance through a third-party vendor when possible. If insurance does not cover vaccines, the practice offers a cash price or refers families to the health department. Dr. Lindner makes individual exceptions for COVID and influenza vaccines.
