Planes de salud que aceptamos: A Note About Paying for Your Care… Before you come to the clinic, you'll need to know costs, how to pay and your insurance coverage, if any. Our costs without insurance are listed on the “List of Services” page and the “Medications” page of our website. If you do not have insurance, you may pay with cash or a debit/credit card. Working with health insurance companies and understanding your policy can be challenging. Many insurance plans pay, partially or in full, for clinical visits, treatments, equipment/devices and medications. However, you are responsible to contact your insurer to learn about your coverage, and you are responsible to pay for any costs that insurance does not pay. Daily Apple Clinic will bill your insurance as a courtesy, but we can never guarantee insurance coverage. We don't want you to be surprised if you think they will pay for any care you receive or any provider you choose. They may not. If you plan to use insurance, you must call your health insurance company, or your prescription plan, using the number on your card, to ask: Whether and what your insurance will pay Whether insurance will pay for costs at Daily Apple Clinic What costs you will be responsible to pay The consent form that you will sign with us will state that you understand you may be asked to personally pay any fees not covered by your insurance. If you cannot or will not sign that consent form, you cannot receive treatment with us and will need to consider other healthcare options. In terms of cost transparency: Most modern clinics pay between 4% and 12% of gross collections in order to purchase and upgrade healthcare management technology, access and use the required software and tools, acc ess the insurance clearinghouses and pay staff and billing companies in order to process and manage insurance claims. It's not cheap. Of course, w e work hard and do expect fair and reasonable compensation for that work. We do our best to earn your trust every day and provide you excellent value, but, i n the end, i f our bills aren't paid, we can't continue to provide care . Thanks for being proactive and taking care of these important details. It lets us focus on providing you the best possible care and helps us maintain great relationships with our patients.

Call Us: 720-593-8989 Primary Care Q & A What is Primary Care? Primary care is healthcare at a general rather than specialized level, often for people making an initial approach to a doctor or nurse for treatment. It is a branch of medicine focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of common chronic (ongoing) and acute conditions. Why might I need primary care? Primary care providers manage day-to-day health needs. Establishing a long-term relationship with a primary care provider (PCP) keeps you healthier and lowers medical costs. A PCP can teach you ways to stay healthy, treat you when you're sick and help you get more advanced care when you need it. You might need primary care if you’re at risk of, or currently need help with, some of the following conditions: High blood pressure High cholesterol Diabetes Heart disease Thyroid disorders Asthma or allergies Injuries Illnesses Arthritis Obesity Chronic pain Erectile dysfunction (ED) Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) Skin problems such as warts, moles, rashes, or skin tags In addition to primary care, Daily Apple Clinic offers a comprehensive list of specialized services and procedures. These might include dermatology services (cryogenic treatment, wart and skin tag removal, mole excision, biopsies, Botox, etc.), laceration repair with sutures or glue, wound care, urgent care needs, women's health procedures and testing, assistance with mental health and referrals to other specialists as needed. We provide vaccinations, medications, prescriptions, and more. What happens during primary care visits? When you arrive at Daily Apple Clinic for primary care appointments, you will be greeted by compassionate staff members who listen and are interested in how they can best take care of you. When testing is necessary, Daily Apple Clinic offers on-site, point-of-care testing which provide immediate results and so we can offer symptom relief as quickly as possible. Examples include: pregnancy tests, strep throat testing, mononucleosis testing, influenza testing, fecal occult blood tests, COVID testing, urinalysis, drug screening, spirometry, etc. Daily Apple Clinic also partners with both Quest and LabCorp. Those lab facilities are nearby, and there’s a pharmacy across the street for added convenience. The clinic also partners with many nearby hospitals and facilities for imaging and referrals. We offer many in-office procedures as noted above and fill medications via e-prescription. A clinical evaluation may include the following: Vital signs check: Your provider assesses your weight, body mass index (BMI), pulse, blood pressure, and temperature during the vital signs check portion of your appointment. Medical history review and physical: Your provider reviews your symptoms and medical history and completes a physical examination to assess your throat, breathing, heartbeat, abdomen, skin, reflexes, etc. In addition, your provider may perform breast and pelvic exams or a Pap test to screen for signs of cervical cancer in women or conduct a prostate exam for men. Diagnosing testing: If you have an illness, disease risk factors or show signs of a medical problem, your Daily Apple Clinic provider may recommend diagnostic testing. Examples include nasal or throat swabs, STD testing, blood tests, urine tests, asthma or allergy tests, pregnancy testing, X-rays, ultrasounds, or other imaging procedures. Treatment: Primary care treatments typically include lifestyle changes (weight loss, healthy eating, regular exercise, etc.) but may also include home remedies, dermatology treatments, medications, injections, or injury care. Your provider may refer you for further diagnostic testing or specialty care for complex medical problems. When should I schedule primary care appointments? Of course, every individual is different, so the following guidelines are not set in stone. In general for both men and women, if you are in basically good health and under the age of 50, it is recommended you see your PCP every three years for a checkup. After age 50, see your doctor once a year. Then, visit us as needed for acute illnesses, chronic health issues or follow-up visits. You are usually able to book a same-day appointment if you or your family and friends experience new or unusual symptoms or have concerns about your health and wellness.

- Men's Health | Daily Apple Clinic
Men's Health Daily Apple Clinic Adult Care, Primary Care, & Family Nurse Practitioners located in Congress Park, Denver, CO Both men and women experience the same common diseases: heart disease, cancer, diabetes, depression and STI's. In this article, we will focus more specifically on one issue concerning sexual performance in men: erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction can cause stress, affect your self-confidence and contribute to relationship problems. Problems having or maintaining an erection can be a risk factor for heart disease and may also be a sign of an underlying health condition that needs treatment. If you are experiencing erectile dysfunction (ED), please visit us at Daily Apple Clinic in Congress Park of Denver, Colorado. Paul Reynolds, FNP, Monica Schonteich, FNP, and their experienced team can offer medications and proven medical treatments to improve your sexual performance and overall health. Please call the clinic to learn more or book an appointment online today. Call Us: 720-593-8989 Men's Health Q & A What is erectile dysfunction? Erectile dysfunction, commonly known as ED or impotence, is the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for sex. Having difficulty with an erection from time to time isn't always a cause for concern, but it often is a source of embarrassment. Treatment may include focusing on an underlying issue, or medications and more direct treatments may be more appropriate. What are the risk factors for ED? Male sexual arousal is a complex process involving interconnected body systems. Additionally, stress, anxiety and mental health concerns can cause or worsen erectile dysfunction. Sometimes a combination of physical and psychological issues cause erectile dysfunction. Some common causes and risk factors include: Older age Tobacco use Diabetes Heart disease Obesity Prostate surgery Radiation treatment Injuries Some medications Drug or alcohol use Stress Anxiety Depression In order to prevent erectile dysfunction, we recommend healthy lifestyle choices and managing any existing health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and other chronic health issues. You should stop smoking, avoid alcohol and illegal drugs, exercise regularly, learn to reduce stress and find help for anxiety, depression and mental health concerns. How do I discuss erectile dysfunction with my doctor? Short answer: However you're most comfortable. Just ask any question you need to in order to clarify your understanding. When you discuss erectile dysfunction with your provider at Daily Apple Clinic, they will review your current symptoms, medical history and other specific sexual problems such as premature or delayed ejaculation. You will review your medical history for diabetes, heart disease and other conditions that may be linked to your erectile dysfunction. Your provider will conduct a thorough physical exam and may recommend blood tests, urine tests, ultrasounds, or other imaging procedures in order to gather additional important information. What are common ED treatments? The treatment for ED generally starts with taking care of your heart and vascular health. Common treatments available for erectile dysfunction include: Lifestyle changes: Maintaining healthy lifestyle habits, including weight loss if you’re overweight and regular exercise, may help reduce ED symptoms without the need for further intervention. You may be asked to stop smoking and stop using drugs and alcohol. You will likely also discuss emotional issues such as relationship conflicts, depression and anxiety. Medications: Oral pills known as phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors are the most common. Brand names are Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra. These medications increase penile blood flow and the rigidity of your erection. Hormone therapy: Low testosterone is a possible cause of erectile dysfunction. You may be tested several days apart in order to determine your levels of serum testosterone. If levels are low, your doctor may suggest injections, patches, or gels to boost testosterone in your body. Injections: Penile injections with a very fine needle, done by the patient at home, can stimulate blood flow and provide a reliable erection for 20 to 30 minutes. Self injection lessons will be given in the doctors office prior to doing it on your own. If you have hesitated to discuss erectile dysfunction with your provider up until now, please see a trusted and knowledgeable member of the Daily Apple Clinic healthcare team for assistance with this important issue. Please call the office to schedule an appointment or book one online today.
