Premier Medical Center

Membership pricing at Premier Medical Center scales by age. Adults under 39 pay $115 per month. Adults 40-49 pay $175 per month, and adults 50 and older pay $230 per month. Children under 25 with a parent member pay $49 per month. A standalone children's membership without an adult costs $99 per month. There is no registration fee, but Premier Medical Center requires the first three months of membership upfront at enrollment.

The membership covers all primary care services with no co-pays. Members receive extended office visits, 24-hour provider access by phone, text, email, and video, annual executive physicals, health coaching, same-day or next-day appointments, house calls, telemedicine, in-office procedures, and wholesale pricing on medications through the in-house pharmacy. A wide range of in-office labs and tests are included at no additional cost.

Premier Medical Center does not bill insurance for membership fees or primary care services. The practice encourages members to maintain a separate insurance plan for services outside the practice's scope, such as hospitalizations, specialist visits, and emergency care. Many members pair their membership with a high-deductible health plan or a lower-cost supplement.

That limit keeps Dr. Kruse available for same-day and next-day visits without long waits. Members never need to compete for appointment slots or feel rushed during their visit.
