SFM DPC has been recognized as a model DPC office in the USA. Dr Rictor is considered one of the thought leaders for this model of care.
We are located in Scotland Pennsylvania but, because of Direct Primary Care, we are an office without walls
Home visits were common decades ago. SFM DPC makes this a possibility again. You may request a home visit and our staff will work with you and evaluate your situation to arrange the best solution
Being free from Insurances has given us the freedom to have un-rushed appointments and contact with increased accessibility
To become a DPC patient with SFM, you do not need insurance. Because of government interference and the need for catastrophic care, we do recommend that you obtain a low premium, high deductible insurance plan
As of this notice, an HSA cannot be used for membership. It can be used for meds and labs that have been discounted with the memberships
To discuss an issue that cannot wait for normal medical hours, you can contact Dr. Rictor via email at sfmdpc@comcast.net or 717-516-7200 for text or use the patient portal or 717 267 3606 for voice.
Medications prescribed can be filled in many ways. We have a pharmacy supply at the office at deeply discounted cost. There are discounts at local pharmacies that continue to work with your pharmacy plan as well. Ask our staff to advise the best way of getting your medications refilled.
Yes. Even though Dr Rictor has opted out of Medicare, Medicare benefits will otherwise remain unchanged and can continue to be used for all other medical care received outside of our practice.
Our commitment is to help you avoid being hospitalized by early detection of disease and/or subtle signs that an existing disease state is worsening. Having a non-pressured doctor who is always available to assist in your health care is key to helping to reduce hospital stays. We will still refer patients to specialists as necessary.
