ApolloMD specializes in partnering with large volume hospitals and top-tier health systems. The average volume across all ApolloMD ED contracts is over 40,000 visits per year; individual facility volumes range from 25,000 visits to over 115,000.

ApolloMD recognizes the unique needs specific to “busier” facilities, and our business model reflects that. In order to form collaborative relationships with both the hospitals we serve and our physician partners, we built a model that aligns the hospitals’ incentives with the physicians’ incentives. Our model incorporates the following:

100% Performance – Based Compensation Structure
ApolloMD’s 100% performance-based compensation structure works to create a “culture of productivity” in every facility in which we operate. ApolloMD physicians are compensated based on the patients they treat and the procedures they perform.  In addition to the volume based component of compensation, patient satisfaction and objective measures of quality can also be part of the compensation structure, allowing for a model that aligns physician incentives with efficient, quality and compassionate care.  

Top Quality Physicians
ApolloMD seeks to provide the highest quality physicians.  We work to provide a core group of physicians at each facility that we serve who are either Board Certified or Board Eligible in Emergency Medicine.  Attracted by top compensation and a high quality of life, ApolloMD physicians are recruited from leading training programs and hospitals throughout the country. 

Leader in Quality and Patient satisfaction
ApolloMD’s primary commitment is to top quality and patient satisfaction, and our client hospitals reflect this. Client hospitals
include two of the three Press Ganey 2007 Compass Award Winners (Category - Emergency Department - More Than 30,000
Visits Annually), two time Press Ganey Summit Award Winner Baptist Gulf Breeze Hospital in Gulf Breeze, FL, and Baptist
Hospital in Pensacola, FL, the 2003 recipient of Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award and national leader in patient
satisfaction.

Operational Resources and Efficiency
ApolloMD believes that for a physician services group to operate most effectively, it is imperative to track and manage account receivables efficiently.  This process includes effective documentation, coding and collections techniques. For these reasons, ApolloMD established an in-house billing company. We utilize electronic records to maximize control and efficiency in the billing process, and continually leverage our size and legal expertise to successfully negotiate with managed care providers in order to maximize reimbursement.

ApolloMD Leadership Academy
Exceptional physician leadership is one of the most crucial components of a successful physician group.  In order to equip our physician leaders with the knowledge of clinical and operational best practices to most effectively serve our hospitals, physicians and patients, ApolloMD established The ApolloMD Leadership Academy.  The Academy is a collaborative effort with top tier academic institutions that incorporate benchmarking, metrics and practical real-world expertise to improve hospital performance.  In addition, we work with groups such as ACEP and the Baptist Leadership Institute to refine our internal organization practices via the learning from peer institutions nationwide.
