Which doctors take Curative insurance in District of Columbia?
Curative coverage for District of Columbia members
District of Columbia members are covered under the Curative agreement, and visits are with Parth Bhavsar, MD, board-certified in Family Medicine and licensed in the District. A video visit fits around a workday downtown rather than replacing one.
The District is covered by TeleDirectMD’s direct contract with Curative for Commercial PPO, EPO, and self-funded plans, effective July 7, 2026. Visits bill as in-network care at the contracted rate, with no referral needed.
Members join from Capitol Hill, Georgetown, Dupont Circle, Columbia Heights, Foggy Bottom, and Brookland, including commuters who live in the District but work irregular hours. Prescriptions route electronically to CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Giant Food, and Walmart pharmacies across the District.

District of Columbia regulatory addendum and licensure
A District of Columbia regulatory addendum sits alongside the national Curative provider agreement, so District-specific requirements for insured members are built into the contract that covers your visit.
The District permits a physician-patient relationship to be established by telehealth (D.C. Code Section 3-1201.05), and the D.C. Telehealth Reimbursement Act requires coverage of services that would be covered in person.
