An essential part of your health is Primary Care. To potentially avoid further medical issues, patients that frequently receive in-home medical care are more likely to have their currently health issues checked in a timely manner. Each visit with a primary care provider will include an in-depth examination and customized treatment plan that will be monitored and adjusted through routine follow-up visits. Your continued care and personalized services will be delivered by your primary care provider as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep my current primary care provider?
No. To prevent redundant or conflicting care, your Atlas Medical provider will serve as the only designated primary care provider. Atlas will collaborate with your previous providers to ensure that we have a complete understanding of your medical history.
How often will I be seen by my Atlas provider?
On average, patients are seen once every 4-6 weeks. Atlas providers coordinate care by managing medications and communicating with family and specialists. They also see their patients for urgent needs.
Does Atlas Medical see patients every time they are in my community?
The decision to see a patient is made by the individual provider at each visit to the community. Even if the patient is stable, the provider may follow up with chronic conditions and medication changes or emphasize active prevention of possible complications at each visit. The provider may also work with caregivers and staff to identify any changes in health conditions.
