About Concierge Medicine in Maryland
Maryland ranks tenth nationally for concierge medicine practices. NextMD lists 122 practices across 36 Maryland cities, with an average membership of $127/mo per month.
Maryland's concierge market spans two distinct corridors. The DC suburban corridor (Rockville, Chevy Chase, Bethesda, Columbia, Annapolis, Silver Spring) accounts for the majority of practices as part of the broader DC metro market. Signature by MedStar Health operates in Chevy Chase. CloseKnit in Bethesda has 21 physicians, the largest single concierge practice in the DC region. Bethesda is also home to NIH and Walter Reed, giving concierge physicians proximity to the most concentrated federal medical research in the country. A national actuarial study found that concierge patients visit the ER 40% less often than traditional patients.
Baltimore adds a separate market anchored by Johns Hopkins. Hopkins operates both an Executive Health Program and Johns Hopkins Personalized Care (JHPC), a concierge program with 24/7 access. Despite Johns Hopkins' global reputation, Baltimore has only 5 concierge practices for a 2.8 million metro, making it one of the most underserved markets relative to its hospital system quality.
DPC starts at $59/month at Oak Tree Primary Care (Columbia) and Evolve Direct Primary Care (Annapolis). For a broader look at how concierge medicine pricing works across the US, Maryland is mid-range with pockets of premium pricing in Chevy Chase and Bethesda.
