Premier Advanced Practice Group is a self-pay practice and does not bill health insurance for visits or membership fees. This allows us to provide transparent pricing and focus on your care without insurance-related restrictions. Patients may still use their health insurance for outside services such as laboratory testing, imaging, medications, specialist care, and other services when applicable.

Premier Membership is designed for patients who want Premier as their ongoing primary care home. For $149 per month, membership includes routine primary care visits, preventive health planning, chronic condition and medication management, review and discussion of laboratory results, personalized health goals and care planning, ongoing follow-up and progress monitoring, and coordination of referrals and outside care when needed.

Laboratory testing, imaging, medications, specialist services, and other outside services are not included unless specifically stated.

Appointments begin with an appointment request through our website. Select the visit type that best fits your needs and submit your preferred date and time. New-patient requests are reviewed by Premier before the appointment is confirmed. You will receive confirmation and additional instructions after your request has been reviewed.

Premier reviews new-patient appointment requests to help ensure that the practice and requested service are appropriate for your healthcare needs. In some situations, we may contact you for additional information or recommend a different level or type of care before scheduling.

Please request routine refills before your medication runs out. Prescription refills are not guaranteed without appropriate clinical evaluation.

Appointments should be canceled or rescheduled as early as possible. Late cancellations, missed appointments, and rescheduling are subject to Premier Advanced Practice Group's current cancellation and payment policies.

Any applicable fees will be disclosed in the practice's patient policies and agreements.

For symptoms such as severe chest pain, severe difficulty breathing, signs of stroke, loss of consciousness, severe bleeding, or another potentially life-threatening condition, call 911 or seek emergency medical care immediately.

Premier is designed for adults who want to take an active role in their health and value education, prevention, accountability, and a collaborative relationship with their healthcare provider.

Our goal is to help patients understand their health, identify risks early, establish realistic goals, and participate meaningfully in decisions about their care.

Premier is built around personalized, evidence-based primary and preventive care with an emphasis on education, early intervention, and long-term health.

Rather than focusing only on treating problems after they occur, we work with patients to understand their health risks, monitor progress over time, manage existing conditions, and develop an individualized plan for protecting their future health.
