Custom Employer Options
We have the unique ability to customize employer healthcare plans either with or without insurance. For companies who do not offer insurance, a direct primary care plan can give your workforce access to healthcare without the tremendous overhead associated with expensive insurance premiums. For employers who already offer insurance plans, partnering with Cornerstone Health can allow us to carve out the direct primary care portion of the plan to drastically reduce insurance premiums and save your company a significant amount each year while also improving your workforce’s access to healthcare. Please contact us about creating a healthcare plan that works for your business and your team.

What is the difference between Direct Primary Care and Concierge Care?Direct Primary Careprovides access to primary care and membership benefits independent of insurance. Insurance is not billed for DPC patients. Concierge care provides enhanced access to care and exclusive membership benefits while still billing patient's insurance for specific medical services.
-
Can Dr. Britt be my doctor if I don't live in Savannah?Yes! Because we offer a variety of convenient appointment options, Dr. Britt is able to manage your care even if you are not local. Federal and state regulations require you to be seen in-person annually, but we enthusiastically embrace creative care coordination to best serve your needs. Contact us to discuss your specific needs.
-
Which patients are eligible for house calls?Dr. Britt is pleased to offer old-fashioned house calls for patients who have limited ability to attend in-person appointments. If the patient has a regular care-taker who attends to his or her daily needs, we ask that the care-taker or another support person be present during the appointment. Contact us to discuss your specific needs.
-
Will I benefit if I don't require medical attention?Yes! We believe that primary care is intended for every stage of life. Let us help you proactively manage your health to prevent avoidable complications, and equip you to face unexpected obstacles. Furthermore, injuries and illnesses cannot be anticipated, and membership with our practice gives you immediate access to simplified care so you can avoid the exorbitant cost, over-treatment, and inconvenience of an emergency room or urgent care clinic.
-
Do you accept health insurance?Yes! We are developing contracts with an exhaustive list of commercial insurers as well as Medicare and TriCare. Patients who would like for us to bill their insurance join our practice as Concierge Care Members and enjoy all of the benefits of membership while having their insurance billed for any medical services provided.
-
Do DPC patients still need health insurance?Direct Primary Care (DPC) patients do not need insurance to be patients in our practice. However, we strongly recommend that our DPC patients have a qualified High Deductible Health Plan, HealthShare Ministry Plan, or ERISA based employer plan to ensure financial security should expensive medical needs arise outside of the scope of primary care, such as cancer, hospitalization, or specialty care.
-
Do you provide employer group memberships?Yes! We enthusiastically embrace the opportunity to work with you to develop a customized plan to meet your employee's needs. Contact us for a customized quote.
-
Are my membership fees tax deductible?Unfortunately, no, DPC/Concierge membership fees are not tax deductible as they are not recognized by the IRS as "qualified medical expenses". Please consult with your tax advisor for further information.
-
Will Dr. Britt manage my care if I am hospitalized?Should you find yourself in the unfortunate circumstance of requiring hospitalization, Dr. Britt will communicate closely with the hospitalists and subspecialists managing your care to ensure continuity from the outpatient to inpatient setting.
-
What ages do you treat?Dr. Britt treats patients “out of the womb into the tomb.” In other words, she cares for patients of all ages. She does not provide obstetric care, but will gladly recommend a wonderful obstetrician to manage your pregnancy.
-
Do you provide vaccines?At this time, we do not provide vaccinations in our office, but we can help you arrange to receive vaccinations according to your convictions (see vaccine policy).
-
Are there any limitations to my ability to contact Dr. Britt?Membership at Cornerstone Health provides you with unparalleled access to your physician. You may call or text Dr. Britt at any time with any medical need. On the rare occasion that Dr. Britt is out of town and unavailable to receive calls or texts, she will arrange for a trusted colleague to respond to urgent patient needs. This will be communicated to members with plenty of advance notice.
-
What if I determine that Cornerstone Health is not right for me?We understand that circumstances in life change, and you may ultimately decide that membership with our practice is not the best choice for your primary care needs. When you become a member with Cornerstone Health, your membership agreement is effective for 12 months, at which time membership will be renewed. However, you are not “locked in” to a specific time obligation, and you may cancel at any time. We will refund a prorated portion of your monthly or annual fee as appropriate. Your membership agreement does guarantee your rate for 12 months (meaning that if our rates increase, you will not see the increase until your agreement is up for renewal).
