⏱️ Your appointments at CareMore Health aren't rushed. Here's why that matters:

The average primary care visit in America lasts 7 minutes — barely enough time to confirm current medications, let alone have a real conversation about your health.

But our providers have the time to listen to your needs, answer your questions, and help you manage your care plan.

When your doctor doesn’t have to hurry, they have time to focus on you.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) makes it harder to breathe — but the right care can help you manage symptoms and stay active.

If you have COPD:

• Take your medications exactly as prescribed
• Avoid smoke and air pollutants
• Stay active with gentle exercises
• Get your flu and pneumonia vaccines
• Know the warning signs of a flare-up

CareMore Health patients in our COPD program had 47% fewer hospital admissions.

With the right support, you can have more good days.

🧪 Before the year ends, make sure you've had all your annual lab work done.

If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney disease, or other complex conditions, regular lab work helps your doctor track your health and adjust your care plan.

Haven't had your labs done yet this year? Call your CareMore Health clinic to schedule an appointment before Dec. 31.

📊 More than 35 million Americans have chronic kidney disease — but 90% don't know it.

That's because kidney disease often has no early symptoms. By the time you feel sick, the disease may have already progressed.

The good news? Simple tests can detect it early, when it’s more treatable.

If you have diabetes or high blood pressure, these tests are especially important. Early detection means early treatment — and that can keep kidney disease from getting worse.

CareMore Health provides comprehensive kidney disease screening and management. Our care teams work with you to protect your kidney health through regular monitoring, nutrition support, and medication management.

Be sure to talk to your provider about kidney disease screening.

⏰ Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period ends Dec. 7. If you haven't reviewed your coverage options yet, NOW is the time.

Some plans require prior authorization, referrals, or step therapy for medications. These rules affect how easily you can get care.

Before you make any changes, review:
• How your current plan is changing for 2026
• Whether your doctors are still in-network
• Your prescription costs under different plans
• Your out-of-pocket costs — not just your monthly premium

Switching plans can impact your access to your current care team. Make sure any new plan keeps you connected to the providers who know you and your health history.

🫶 Meeting people where they are starts with listening. Our doctors take time to understand your story — your challenges, your goals, and what feels possible for you right now.

We deliver whole-person care in a way that's important to patients.

For example: Not ready to quit smoking? We get it. Your doctor can chat with you about what you already know about to***co, whether you want to quit someday, and what support would work for you when that time comes.

Meeting you where you are means that we can help you at any stage of your health journey.

The average primary care visit in America lasts 7 minutes—barely enough time to confirm current medications, let alone understand a patient's life circumstances and health goals.

Our Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Greg Whisman, sat down with The Healthcare Blog to discuss how CareMore approaches primary care differently. The conversation covered longer appointment times and wrapping team-based care around patients—including social work, case management, and 24/7 access to nurse practitioners.

For seniors managing chronic conditions, this model makes a measurable difference. As Dr. Whisman explains, "So much of what determines how a patient does, how they avoid going to the ER, how they stay out of the hospital happens outside that 7 minutes."
