DirectDerm\u2019s<\/strong> diagnostic accuracy rate is equivalent to that of an in-office visit, so you and your patients get reliable, effective treatment options in hours. Patient satisfaction goes up as sick time and treatment costs come down.<\/p>\n In another case, our doctors detected a melanoma on the scalp of a very young patient, and the lesion was surgically removed within a week. At the early, precancerous stage that it was detected (melanoma in situ), the five-year survival rate is nearly 100 percent and the average cost of care is less than $5,000. But if the disease progresses unchecked, survival statistics drop dramatically and costs soar into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n These are just two examples of the dramatic impact that DirectDerm<\/strong> has on improving patient care and outcomes and reducing costs for payers.<\/p>\n For each entity with an interest in patients\u2019 skin health, having DirectDerm<\/strong> on the team allows you to offer a one-stop skin-care solution that is effective, simple, fast and affordable.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#98c137″ show_divider=”on” divider_style=”dashed” divider_position=”top” hide_on_mobile=”off” height=”2″ \/][et_pb_blurb url_new_window=”off” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#0a0000″ use_circle=”off” circle_color=”#4ebcea” use_circle_border=”off” circle_border_color=”#4ebcea” icon_placement=”left” animation=”off” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_icon_font_size=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” icon_font_size=”30px” custom_margin=”|||-50%” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0px” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|tablet” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_divider color=”#98c137″ show_divider=”on” divider_style=”dashed” divider_position=”top” hide_on_mobile=”off” \/][et_pb_text background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#98c137″ show_divider=”on” divider_style=”dashed” divider_position=”top” hide_on_mobile=”off” height=”2″ \/][et_pb_blurb url_new_window=”off” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”%%28%%” icon_color=”#0a0000″ use_circle=”off” circle_color=”#4ebcea” use_circle_border=”off” circle_border_color=”#4ebcea” icon_placement=”left” animation=”off” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_icon_font_size=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” icon_font_size=”30px” custom_margin=”|||-50%” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0px” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_divider color=”#98c137″ show_divider=”on” divider_style=”dashed” divider_position=”top” hide_on_mobile=”off” \/][et_pb_text background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” border_style=”solid” custom_margin=”50px|||” custom_padding=”30px|||” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial” _builder_version=”3.0.51″]<\/p>\n See when to refer a patient<\/a><\/p>\n See how easy referring can be<\/a><\/p>\n What other providers are saying.<\/a><\/p>\n View a list of conditions<\/span>\u00a0we often diagnose and treat<\/a><\/p>\n To learn more or join DirectDerm<\/strong> as a referring provider or partner, please contact us<\/a>.

<\/a>In one case study, a patient referred to DirectDerm<\/strong> had been misdiagnosed with a fungal infection of the foot. After three months, three visits to a doctor and four prescriptions, the lesions had failed to improve. DirectDerm<\/strong> dermatologists quickly identified the true source of the problem \u2013 a reaction to a drug the patient had been taking. When the medication was stopped, the problem resolved, saving the patient from further discomfort, repeated office visits and pharmacy costs.<\/p>\nHealth Plans<\/a><\/h3>\n
