Will Dr. Yaqub still be taking insurance?
Yes. KEY MD Newport Beach will continue to accept insurance for all medically necessary visits and tests.
Your annual membership fee covers comprehensive wellness visits, including your annual executive-style exam and in-depth health consultations that go far beyond what traditional insurance covers.
Please note that co-pays and deductibles are still required when treating established medical conditions, as mandated by Medicare and insurance regulations.
Why is Dr. Yaqub making this change?
Dr. Yaqub’s vision for KEY MD Newport Beach is to provide a more meaningful, unhurried, and proactive approach*to healthcare.
After years of practicing traditional medicine, he realized that true wellness requires *time, focus, and personalization*—not just treatment after disease occurs.
This model allows him to *devote more time to each patient, focusing on longevity, prevention, and optimization*—the essence of luxury healthcare.
How much is the annual fee?
The annual membership fee varies depending on the program that best aligns with your goals and level of care.
Payment may be made annually or monthly, and couples or significant others who both join the practice receive a 20% courtesy reduction.
Please contact our office for a personalized consultation to determine which membership tier suits your needs.
Can I wait to sign up?
We recommend enrolling as soon as possible.
To preserve the personalized experience, Dr. Yaqub limits his practice to a small, exclusive number of members.
Once the membership threshold is reached, enrollment will close, and a waiting list will be established.
Can I cancel my membership?
Memberships require a three-month minimum commitment.
After the initial three months, you may cancel at any time with 30 days’ written notice.
Our team strives to ensure every member feels their experience is truly rewarding and transformative.
If I choose not to join, will Dr. Yaqub still refer me to another physician?
Absolutely. Should you decide not to enroll, Dr. Yaqub will ensure a seamless transition by referring you to trusted internists and pulmonologists within the community.
How do I sign up?
Enrollment is simple.
You may contact us directly by phone or email, and our team will assist you in selecting the right program and scheduling your initial consultation.
What kind of access will I have to Dr. Yaqub?
As a KEY MD Newport Beach member, you will enjoy unparalleled access to Dr. Yaqub.
Appointments are available same-day or next-day, based on your needs, and you will be able to reach Dr. Yaqub personally outside of regular office hours for urgent matters.
For any true emergency, please remember to call 911 immediately.
Why should I invest in a subscription-style healthcare model?
Because your health is your most valuable asset.
In today’s complex and fragmented healthcare system, delayed detection and limited physician access often come at a high personal cost.
Our executive wellness model is designed to optimize your longevity, vitality, and quality of life, providing the highest standard of care with transparency, accessibility, and depth.
Membership fees may qualify as eligible medical expenses for HSA, HRA,FSA, or MSA accounts—please consult your tax professional for details.
