Cavea Health
What is Direct Primary Care?
It's medicine the way it worked before insurance sat in the middle of every visit. You pay Cavea Health one membership fee. In exchange, you get real access to your own doctor — not a call center, not a different provider every visit.
Most members keep a separate high-deductible plan or catastrophic coverage for hospital stays, specialists, and emergencies — Cavea Health handles everything else.
What makes Cavea different
Text your doctor
A question doesn't need an appointment. Message Dr. Dewitt directly and hear back.
Fill out forms once
Your history, medications, and preferences — on file from day one, not re-copied at every visit.
Home visits
When getting to the office isn't realistic, we come to you.
Shared decisions
You and your doctor decide together — never a plan handed down from an insurer.
How membership works
Join
Choose your membership tier and sign your agreement — it takes about ten minutes.
Complete your health profile
One intake, done once. History, medications, and goals, all on file before your first visit.
Reach your doctor
Text, call, or come in. For home visits, just ask — availability depends on your location and needs.
Decide together
Every plan — from a prescription to a referral — is one you and Dr. Dewitt agree on together.

Using your HSA at Cavea Health
Starting January 1, 2026, federal law lets you use HSA funds to pay Direct Primary Care membership fees, and enrolling no longer disqualifies you from contributing to an HSA — as long as you keep a qualifying high-deductible plan alongside your membership and stay within the federal monthly cap.
Under Florida law, a direct primary care agreement like this one is not insurance and isn't regulated as insurance (Fla. Stat. §624.27).

Frequently asked questions
What is Direct Primary Care?+
You pay one monthly fee directly to your doctor's practice instead of billing insurance for each visit. That fee covers ongoing primary care — office visits, follow-ups, care coordination, and direct access to your doctor.
Do you accept insurance?+
No. Cavea Health doesn't bill insurance for membership or visits, which keeps pricing simple and predictable. Most members keep a separate high-deductible plan for hospitalization, specialists, and emergencies, since membership doesn't replace that coverage.
Can I use my HSA to pay for membership?+
Starting in 2026, yes — as long as you also maintain a qualifying high-deductible health plan and stay within the federal monthly cap. See the Membership section above for details, and confirm specifics with your tax advisor.
Is this the same as insurance?+
No. Under Florida law (Fla. Stat. §624.27), a direct primary care agreement is not insurance and isn't regulated as insurance. It's a direct contract between you and your doctor.
What areas do you serve?+
Lakeland and the surrounding Polk County area, including Winter Haven, Auburndale, Plant City, and Bartow, with home visits available in parts of that area.
What if I need a specialist or the hospital?+
Cavea Health coordinates referrals and advocates for you, but membership doesn't cover hospital or specialist bills directly — that's what a separate high-deductible or catastrophic plan is for.
