Is concierge medicine
actually right FOR you?

CMT DECISION TOOLS — READINESS

Are you ready for this change?

Twenty questions across mindset, business readiness, and marketing and leadership. There are no perfect scores here, only perspective on your next right step. For physicians, NPs, PAs, RNs, and care team members exploring membership-based care.

This isn't about "should I do this?" or "will it work?" Only you, alongside trusted advisors and mentors, can answer that. This assessment simply helps you slow down long enough to look honestly at where you are.

CMT has covered this field independently since 2007. We've talked to thousands of physicians who've made this decision — in both directions.

“This assessment was built from nearly two decades of physician interviews, national conference conversations, and independent research. It doesn't tell you what to do. It gives you the framework to decide for yourself — clearly, honestly, without a vendor agenda.”

— Michael Tetreault, Editor-in-Chief · Concierge Medicine Today · Est. 2007 · Independent since day one

This assessment is useful if — and honest if it's not.

Good fit

  • Physicians actively considering a transition

  • Physicians 1–5 years from making a move

  • Residents exploring career paths

  • Physicians wanting an independent view

Not the right fit

Physicians who've already decided and are in execution mode

Those seeking legal or financial advice

Practices already operating in this model

Most physicians land here for one of these reasons:

You're exhausted by the current model but not sure if this is the answer or just an escape.

You've read about it but can't find an honest, vendor-neutral take on whether it fits your situation.

You're worried about the transition — financially, relationally, professionally.

You want someone to tell you clearly: yes, or no for now, but not forever, or no, it’s just not for you.
