Why the Direct-Pay (no insurance) Model?

With almost 30 years of experience working in healthcare Dr. Hylton has witnessed the trend of devaluation of the physician-patient relationship by insurers and corporations. Today the burdensome regulations and overhead costs of billing insurance companies translates to narrower operating margins for medical practices. To survive, traditional medical practices must rely on increasing the quantity of visits, rather than focusing on the value of care to the patient.

Mind Over Metabolism has the freedom to provide high quality and time intensive lifestyle coaching and medical care by a physician because we are not constrained by insurance company reimbursement. However, patients who have a high-deductible health insurance plan can pay for our services with a Health Savings Account.

No insurance plan values your health and longevity like you and your family do. Invest in yourself.

The unspoken mission of health insurance corporations today is to put up as many obstacles as possible to prevent you from spending your insurance premium dollars which line their coffers.

~Mercy Hylton, M.D.

The direct pay model of medical care provides a very contemporary model for patient to doctor communication and scheduling that allows for greater flexibility for everyone and that respects everyone’s time. The pricing is consistent and transparent, which helps keep costs low as the administrative overhead is so much more manageable.
