Notice: The organization facilitating the direct patient care agreement is not an insurance company, and the direct patient care company guidelines and agreement operation are not an insurance policy. The agreement does not meet any individual health insurance mandate that may be required by federal law. Participation in the direct patient care agreement or a subscription to any of its documents should not be considered to be a health insurance policy.
