Do I need to leave the primary care physician practice that I use now?

Can I see a specialist?

Yes, the membership fee covers an exceptionally high level of service, access to your Mass General primary care physician 24 hours a day/7 days a week, coordination of specialist care as needed and state of the art facilities. It does not cover the cost of the medical care delivered to you. Your insurance plan will cover the medical services that are provided by the concierge doctor.
Is there a copay?

Does Concierge Medicine take Medicare as an insurance provider?
Yes.
