Fall is here, and we just gained an hour! Best thing ever to gain an hour, of sleep of course…
|
Thank you to all who attended our Perimenopause Lecture and received a Free Tea blend
courtesy of Robyn. She takes great care to always to create something delicious!

This letter will be a good number of ‘bullet’ points as we move into open enrollment season, I
have a few questions and answers to address:
|
-If I change my address or insurance plan, when should I let Crossbridge DPC know? As soon as you receive new cards or numbers, please let me know. This is also the same for your home address.
|
- Do you have people who can help me with insurance ‘thoughts’?
|
|
Short answer, yes. But please do remember: insurance, health share plans, and HSA/ FSAs change every year. Please do NOT assume your coverage is similar as last year. It is ALL much more expensive and all have changed.
|
-I own a business and want to create my own health insurance plan for myself and employees, can you help with that?
|
|
ABSOLUTELY, this is how we are going to fix healthcare- small to medium businesses can shift power from large insurance. Let me know if you are or know a business owner who wants to save money on health insurance by creating their own plan.
|
-Is Crossbridge Direct Primary Care closed to new patients?
|
|
No, we will be enrolling new patients in January 2027. HOWEVER, if new family members come or need to be added before then, that can be done immediately.
|
- Does Crossbridge Direct Primary care do any urgent care visits?
|
|
EXCEPTION: If a member's family is visiting from another town, like up from Florida, and need an urgent care visit, then yes! I will see them. One time $75 visit for sickness or injury.
|
-Lastly, if I choose to use an HSA card, is that allowed?
|
Absolutely! Let’s save on taxes next year…
The only exception to this is the Crossbridge DPC cannot charge a family over $300 for memberships monthly and use an HSA card. We will need to work out a plan for that with you personally.

Need a little hydration? Crossbridge DPC will be offering IV and Iron infusions in 2027. Be on the lookout!

ALLERGY TESTING & TREATMENT
The Multi-panel outdoor allergy test included trees, weeds, grasses, molds, mites, and various animals.
|
Sublingual immunotherapy, also called allergy drops, works like allergy shots by gradually helping your body tolerate whatever causes your allergies. The difference is instead of getting an injection, the antigen (allergy causing substance) is given under your tongue in a painless liquid drop form.
|
- Take at home, or wherever you are, three times daily. No weekly office visits needed.
- Custom prescription based on your history, exam, and allergy testing.
- Treats the cause of your allergies, rather than masking the symptoms.
- Lowers allergy related costs over time
If you’re interested in testing your allergies and treating the root cause of your allergies, please fill out the Allergy Testing Interest Form . Non-members may sign up to receive allergen Testing- prior to December.
|
Do you know if you have allergies or would be a good candidate for allergy treatment? Take this allergy quiz to assess your allergy needs.

SPOT of TEA
|
|
|
|
3 Parts Chamomile flowers
|
|
3 Parts Dried Orange ( You could also sub out Freeze dried or dried peaches, mango, or other fruit to preference)
|
( Parts in my recipe were Tablespoons)
|
|
|
Add 1 T Lemon Juice and 1 T Honey to your glass. Add 1 tsp of the loose leaf tea blend to your strainer. Pour 12 + oz of boiling water over the tea strainer, honey and lemon juice. Stir to ensure the honey is incorporated.
|
|
Steep the tea for 5+ minutes. Remove the strainer and add a few ice cubes to cool down to drink.
|
|
If you use peaches as the dried fruit this should taste similar to a "medicine" drink at a coffee chain.
|
|
|
|
Hope some of this is helpful, now back to planning Thanksgiving seating arrangements!
Grace and Peace to you,
Lt Col Zachariah Overby, MD
