Direct Primary Care in Arizona

Direct Primary Care (DPC) offers Arizona residents an alternative to traditional insurance-based healthcare. With 68 providers across 20 cities, patients can find affordable monthly membership plans that cover primary care services without copays or deductibles. Affordable monthly membership plans are available. DPC practices typically offer longer appointments, same-day or next-day availability, direct physician access via phone or text, and transparent pricing without insurance billing.

74 of those practices (128%) are currently accepting new patients. 44 offer telehealth visits, useful for residents in rural counties or for follow-up care between in-person appointments. Coverage now reaches 20 Arizona cities, so most patients can find a DPC option within driving distance.

Regulatory note for Arizona: Arizona enacted a DPC statute in 2015 (HB 2502) confirming that Direct Primary Care agreements are not insurance and are exempt from Department of Insurance oversight.

Are Arizona DPC practices accepting new patients?

Yes — 74 of the DPC practices we track in Arizona are currently accepting new patients. Each listing shows its current status so you can find one taking members near you.

Can I use an HSA or FSA for a DPC membership in Arizona?

Yes. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R.1, 119th Congress), signed July 4, 2025, made Direct Primary Care memberships HSA-eligible starting January 1, 2026. Monthly fees under $150 per individual (or $300 per family) qualify as tax-deductible medical expenses, so you can pay with pre-tax HSA or FSA dollars.

Do I still need insurance with direct primary care in Arizona?

Direct Primary Care covers everyday primary care, but most members still keep a high-deductible or catastrophic insurance plan (or a health sharing plan) for emergencies, hospitalizations, and specialist care. DPC handles routine and preventive visits; insurance covers the big, unexpected costs.
