Aspen Physician Network

Aspen Physician Network, PLLC (“Aspen”) exists to create an integrated panel of independent specialty physician groups to promote an environment of cooperation amongst providers and delivering quality care to the community. The goal is to assemble a network of quality physicians and outpatient facilities that could meet most of the specialty-related health care needs of the patient population. There is an additional focus on trying to reduce the cost of health care services through the collaboration of care, providers and facilities. Aspen is available to contract with: * Health Plans * Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) * Clinical Integrated Networks (CINs) * Emerging Alternative Payment Models (APMs) * Employer Groups * Health Systems (when the physician panel is needed) Our focus is on improving quality and lowering costs through clinical integration processes, while increasing access for patients to a high quality integrated specialty physician network.
