New Essence Health

Membership at New Essence Health costs $150 per month per adult. New members also pay a one-time $125 enrollment fee. That fee includes the Essence Care Health Kit, which contains a blood pressure monitor, pulse oximeter, digital scale, and thermometer for home vital tracking.

The membership covers primary care visits, both in-person in Buckhead and via telemedicine across Georgia. It includes same-day appointments, preventive care, chronic disease management, acute illness visits, mental wellness support, hormone therapy, weight management, coordinated specialist referrals, and generic medication delivery for the first year. Members also receive transparent cash-pay pricing on labs and imaging.

Members can still use insurance for labs and imaging if they choose, or pay cash-pay rates. The practice recommends pairing the membership with a high-deductible health plan for catastrophic coverage.
