Proactive Medicine Membership
In over 11 years, NONE of our patients have suffered a disabling stroke or fatal heart attack.
You read that right: None/Zero!
What is the value of quality years of life?
What is the cost of a stroke, heart attack, dementia to you and those who care for you?
The CureCenter accepts significantly discounted payments from your insurance plans and Medicare for services they deem "necessary," including consultations and most labs. We support billing, when possible to third parties. For those who prefer cash payment, our discounts save hundreds (in some cases more than a thousand) of dollars per follow up encounter compared to list prices.
Third party payments cover standard care and results. But they don’t reward the innovation and extra effort supporting our optimal care delivery, efficacy and efficiency including…

A Proactive Medicine Membership fee is charged after the first followup CIMT (6-8 months) as follows:
Every 12 months starting with the first follow up CurePlan Huddle appointment:
$200/year/individual (Non payable CPT code 89990)
$300/couple billed as $150 per individual (Non payable CPT code 89989)
This membership shows commitment that will sustain your success based on investment and ownership. If you think it’s too costly, check the price on the alternatives.
The charge is billed by electronic invoice, payable by credit card or check. “Nonbillable” (which really means not recognized by third party payers as payable) code is 89990 (individual) or 89996 (half of a couple). It is not submitted to or covered by third parties. It is payment for noncovered benefits. It is your responsibility. We appreciate payment as soon as you can but will not pursue collection if you don’t.
If you cannot afford this fee, please email, text or schedule a call to discuss a discount or exception.
If you don’t think it is a worthy investment and will not pay this fee, you are welcome to pursue the same outcomes and experience with another doctor.
Finally, if you suffer a stroke or heart attack during Proactive Medicine care, the last paid fee will be refunded, no questions asked.
