KrisCare MD

KrisCare MD charges a single annual professional fee that covers essentially all of Dr. Kristosturyan's services. The practice sends no additional bills beyond that fee. Patients choose to pay once a year, twice a year, or quarterly, and the fee adjusts slightly depending on the payment schedule.

In many cases, yes. Patients who use pre-tax FSA or HSA dollars for the annual fee often reduce their out-of-pocket costs by 30 to 40 percent. Check with your plan administrator to confirm eligibility for your specific account.

KrisCare MD operates on an annual professional fee rather than insurance billing. The practice does not bill insurance for covered services. Your existing insurance remains active for outside services such as specialist visits, hospitalizations, and pharmacy benefits.

Yes. Dr. Kristosturyan has opted out of Medicare, so Medicare does not cover the professional fee or related expenses. Medicare patients may sign a waiver to enter a private relationship with Dr. Kristosturyan and join the practice. Your Medicare coverage with all other physicians, hospitals, and facilities stays fully intact.

Yes. Dr. Kristosturyan offers telemedicine visits for appropriate concerns and conducts house calls when the situation calls for it. The practice also provides hospital visits at MedStar Montgomery Medical Center. That flexibility keeps care accessible across a range of patient needs.

The comprehensive annual physical includes a complete medical history and exam by Dr. Kristosturyan, an EKG with interpretation, and a full panel of routine laboratory tests. Covered labs include blood count, chemistry panel, cholesterol panel, urinalysis, and thyroid or prostate testing. The annual influenza vaccine and tetanus-diphtheria update are also included.

KrisCare MD offers a complimentary 45-minute meet-and-greet with no obligation. Prospective patients can call or email the office to schedule that visit. It is an informal conversation designed to help you decide whether the practice is a good fit before committing.

Yes. Dr. Kristosturyan personally tracks every referral, discusses your case directly with specialists, and reviews all results with you. He sends prescriptions electronically to your pharmacy and connects patients to advocacy services when needed. That coordination keeps your care consistent and nothing falling through the cracks.
