Dr. Robert S. Berry, a local physician who was a voice in the national debate about health care reform, died Monday.
Berry was a pioneer in the movement of primary care clinics, opening the PATMOS EmergiClinic in Greeneville in 2001 to provide medical service to individuals without health insurance or high deductibles, the first and only insurance-free, fee-for-service practice in Northeast Tennessee.
The clinic had evolved over the past several months into DirectMD of Greeneville. Direct MD follows the direct primary care model in which a patient pays the physicianâs office directly monthly or yearly to receive comprehensive primary medical care.
