re CLAIM Fundamentals. Flexibility. Future.

American Health Care: Preparing for change, managing uncertainty.

The US health care system teeters on the brink of unprecedented change. Economic uncertainty, health care reform, public scrutiny and consumer activism create a volatile and uncertain environment for all health care providers. Physicians are perhaps most affected. In the decade to come, doctors will be challenged to care for 28 million newly-insured Americans, straining limited resources in a constant effort to deliver quality care while achieving sustainable levels of compensation.

In the face of such economic and performance pressures, it is not surprising that many physicians are considering employment as an alternative to solo or small group practice. As is the case with many institutions and organizations, not all employment models are equal.

FHMG physicians succeed for a variety of reasons, including a history of nearly 20 years in the marketplace, coupled with our affiliation with Florida Hospital—a stronghold in the community for over a century. But physicians who join FHMG attribute a great portion of their success to engaged employees and a devotion to a patient-centered culture that translates into outstanding care, patient satisfaction and practice profitability.

The FHMG business model is a “win-win” for a physician. An immediate benefit is lowered overhead costs through the consolidation of management and non-clinical support functions. Additionally, we are able to negotiate strong managed care contracts, positively impacting the bottom line, while the collections team delivers high performance results. The FHMG marketing team is committed to delivering high quality outcomes to help grow patient volume and brand your practice. Each element of the business model was created to ensure the practice establishes and executes a solid business development plan.

reCOMMIT Trust. Treat. Transform.

Uncommon Care is Commonplace: Remembering the reasons you became a doctor.

Physicians join FHMG for a variety of reasons—for many, it allows a recommitment to their patients’ physical, emotional or spiritual needs, as well as their own. By allowing the physician to concentrate time and energy on patient care and personal growth, rather than administrative duties, the FHMG support team helps build and strengthen the bond between patients and their physicians, which leads to greater satisfaction for both doctor and patient.

Likewise, our goal is to ensure a good fit between FHMG and the physician. We welcome the opportunity to discuss the advantages gained by joining FHMG, as we respect the careful consideration that such a prospect must be given— especially in uncertain times. That is why, since 1994, FHMG has been diligent and unfaltering in the ascent to become Central Florida’s proven leader in fostering physician performance.

If you are interested in exploring employment with FHMG, please contact your FHMG representative.
