Legacy MD Medical Group hosted a Small Business Workshop in El Centro, focusing on affordable healthcare options, workers' compensation coordination, and industrial medicine. The event introduced Legacy MD's Direct Primary Care (DPC) memberships, which offer flexible healthcare plans for individuals, families, and employer groups. These memberships allow businesses and employees to start or stop coverage month-to-month, catering to seasonal or transitional workforces. The workshop highlighted Legacy MD's comprehensive services, including urgent care, specialty care, telemedicine, and preventive care. The integration of workers' compensation and occupational health services was also emphasized, aiming to avoid costly delays and prioritize employee health.
Why It's Important?
The workshop is significant for small businesses seeking affordable healthcare solutions. Legacy MD's DPC memberships provide a cost-effective alternative to traditional healthcare plans, offering flexibility and comprehensive services under one roof. This model is particularly beneficial for businesses with seasonal or transitional workforces, allowing them to manage healthcare costs effectively. By integrating workers' compensation and occupational health services, Legacy MD helps employers streamline claims management and enhance employee safety. The availability of high-quality, affordable healthcare options in Imperial Valley reduces the need for residents and employers to seek care across the border, fostering local economic growth.
