Direct Primary Care for Musicians & Touring Professionals

Life on the road requires flexibility.

Late nights.
Early flights.
Irregular sleep.
Constant movement between cities — sometimes between countries.

For musicians and music industry professionals, traditional healthcare structures rarely fit the rhythm of the work.

Appointments are difficult to schedule.
Access changes across state lines.
Insurance networks may not travel with you.
And urgent questions do not wait until you return home.

Metronome Family Medicine was built by a physician who understands that reality firsthand.

Care That Moves With You

Direct Primary Care provides an established physician relationship that remains steady — even when your schedule is not.

When you are traveling, you may need:

• Guidance about new symptoms
• Clarification about medications
• Support managing chronic conditions while on tour
• Help replacing lost or stolen prescriptions
• Coordination if you require care outside your home state

Direct communication with your physician allows many concerns to be addressed efficiently and appropriately.

This does not replace emergency care.
It does not eliminate the need for in-person evaluation when necessary.

But it reduces uncertainty — and preserves continuity.

Access Without Layers

Touring professionals are accustomed to solving problems quickly.

Direct Primary Care removes administrative layers between you and your physician.

When a question arises, you communicate directly with the doctor who already knows your medical history — not through a call center or rotating coverage system.

Messages are reviewed and responded to in a timely, structured manner.

Access is not about 24/7 immediacy.

It is about clarity, continuity, and appropriate guidance when decisions need to be made.

Prescriptions & Travel Considerations

Lost luggage happens.
Medications run short.
Schedules change unexpectedly.

Within regulatory and state licensing boundaries, prescription coordination and refills can often be arranged efficiently when a therapeutic relationship is already established.

Certain medications may require in-person evaluation or specific documentation depending on state and federal regulations.

Care is delivered responsibly, with full respect for licensing requirements and prescribing laws.

A continuous physician relationship makes navigation smoother — particularly when travel complicates access.

Direct Primary Care & Risk Protection

Direct Primary Care is not health insurance.

It is comprehensive primary care delivered through a transparent membership model.

For many musicians and touring professionals, traditional employer-sponsored insurance is not available — and individual marketplace plans may be expensive, restrictive, or tied to specific geographic networks.

Some individuals pair Direct Primary Care with alternative risk protection structures, such as:

• High-deductible health plans
• Catastrophic insurance coverage
• Health sharing arrangements

Health sharing organizations are not insurance and operate under their own guidelines. They may offer broader flexibility across state lines and internationally, but individuals should review their terms carefully.

When structured intentionally, this layered approach can provide:

Steady, relationship-based primary care
+
Protection against large, unpredictable medical events

For touring professionals, flexibility matters.

Licensing & In-Person Care

Medical care is governed by state licensure laws.

An in-person therapeutic relationship must be established within the state in which the physician is licensed to practice.

Ongoing communication, follow-up, and care coordination are possible once that relationship is established, but emergency or urgent situations may require evaluation by local providers when traveling.

Direct Primary Care supports continuity — it does not replace emergency services or hospital-level care.

Built With Musicians in Mind

Dr. Juan spent a decade as an internationally touring musician before entering medicine and continues to perform professionally.

He understands:

• Irregular income cycles
• Unpredictable schedules
• The physical demands of performance
• The need for dependable access without administrative friction

Performance demands often intersect with sleep, hormone balance, and metabolic resilience.

Healthcare should adapt to the rhythm of your life — not the other way around.

Continuity, In Time.
Clarity, In Time.
Healthcare That Moves With You — In Time.
