What makes Mid America Physician Services (MAPS) special?
The intricacies of navigating the healthcare environment have made it increasingly difficult for small independent practices to survive. Our collaborative structure has provided us the ability to remain physician-owned at a time when many practices have sold out to hospital systems.
Why does physician ownership matter?
By remaining independent we are able to provide a more personalized experience. Building long-term relationships are important to our physicians. Our patients benefit from high quality medical care in the form of continuity and consistency when they are regularly able to see their own provider. This consistency then leads to better and more complete patient history that assists in creating broader treatment goals and a more tailored care strategy.
Are there any additional benefits to seeing a MAPS physician?
Absolutely! By joining together, our four divisions are able to access lower cost resources through quantity discounts and other efficiencies of scale. Our administrative overhead is lower than that of a hospital system as well. These cost-savings equate to more affordable care options which reduce patient out-of-pocket expenses.
