MedAmerica can develop and manage a hospitalist group practice to meet the needs of your hospital. MedAmerica has created an organizational structure and support system that attracts and retains hospitalist physicians long-term. Briefly, MedAmerica’s approach is the following:

• Create a structure that offers physicians equal ownership in the practice and the ability to participate in the decision-making process.
  
• Affiliate with other sites under the MAP organization to share economies of scale, best practices and the collegiality of a broader network.
  
• Incentivize physicians to grow the practice by rewarding them for quality of care, productivity, cost containment and patient/physician satisfaction.
  
• Provide an array of superior management support services for our medical group practice sites.
  
• Maintain separate revenue and reimbursement by contract location to maximize growth and performance by site
  

The group’s differentiation from others is the local physician ownership supported by an experienced management company providing an array or products and services specifically focused on hospital-based physicians. Alignment of ownership with practice management support works well to ensure that patients receive timely, cost effective and high quality inpatient medical care. Physicians in these practices enjoy both quality of practice and quality of life!
