The District has no shortage of clinicians on paper, and still has a real access problem. Many of the best known practices do not take insurance, waits for an in-network prescriber run long, and the District's federal and professional workforce often cannot attend a weekday daytime appointment without explaining the absence. Access is also unevenly distributed, thinner east of the Anacostia than west of Rock Creek Park.
Telehealth appointments fit around a working day rather than competing with it, and the practice is in-network with Medicare and UnitedHealthcare / Optum Behavioral Health. Veterans seeking VA and disability evaluations are a substantial part of the DC patient population.
