Concierge Medicine Membership Value Calculator
Benchmark whether a concierge medicine retainer is worth the premium. Enter the annual membership fee, your expected visit volume, and what those visits cost today. Optional fields let you assign a dollar value to time saved and include any per-visit add-ons so you can weigh cash outlay, time dividends, and total value in one view.

FAQ
How should I handle family memberships?
Divide the total retainer by the number of covered adults and run the calculator for each person. Add pediatric visits separately if billed per child.
Can I include wellness services or house calls?
Yes. Estimate their per-visit value and add it to the time-saved hourly value or the add-on field so the total benefit reflects every perk you plan to use.
What if my insurer still charges co-pays inside the membership?
Add those co-pays to the add-on field so membership cost per visit reflects the true out-of-pocket expense.
Does the calculator account for tax deductions?
Not directly. If your concierge practice qualifies as medical care for deduction purposes, reduce the annual fee input by the deductible amount before running the calculation.
Additional Information
- Assumes concierge fees cover all primary visits; enter routine labs or specialty consult fees in the add-on field if billed separately.
- Time savings include travel, waiting room delays, and extended physician access—adjust the hourly value to match your income or opportunity cost.
- Cash break-even ignores insurance reimbursements or HSA eligibility; incorporate those manually if they offset the membership fee.
