PrimeDoc® is a 100%
physician owned and managed private-practice hospitalist
company.
PrimeDoc hospitalists are full- and part-time acute care specialists who focus exclusively on
inpatient care and are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Individual practices are located
in hospitals across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic at hospitals that range from 175 to 400 beds.
Each PrimeDoc hospitalist practice functions as a freestanding private practice, holding a contract for
the provision of hospitalist services with its individual client hospital.
All back-office
management functions (such as billings, collections,
legal, accounting, bookkeeping, marketing, and recruitment) are centralized in the PrimeDoc Management
offices. All PrimeDoc hospitalist programs have consistently
demonstrated excellent results that benefit our hospital
client facilities, physicians, and patients.
