Frequent Routine Primary Care Visits May Lower Costs for Higher-Risk Commercially Insured Adults
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®) speaks with Tory M. Wolff, MBA, an author of a study published in the September 2025 issue and managing partner of Recon Strategy, a management consulting firm specializing in health care strategy.
His study, "Impact of More Primary Care Visits on Commercial Health Care Costs," found that more frequent routine primary care visits among certain higher-risk commercially insured adults are associated with lower net population-level health care costs.
In this conversation, Wolff explores the inspiration behind his research, expands on his findings, and discusses the next steps to better understand the long-term value of routine primary care in commercial populations.
