How AIM can help you

  • Practice Support

    AIM provides overall practice support in the form of governance support, administrative efforts, resources for insurance, payroll and billing services and more. Ensure you have a solid foundation in these essential areas via AIM’s proprietary “Private Practice Tool Kit”

  • Advocacy

    AIM is continually developing and fostering relationships with like-minded organizations, media, and political contacts, helping to drive awareness of and action to change the existing healthcare landscape being taken over by corporations and private equity-backed companies more focused on profits than patients and physicians

  • Negotiations

    Ensuring you’re prepared for a negotiation before entering one is the best way to secure a favorable outcome. This looks like taking regular stock of your practice’s financials, governance, and goals to identify and maintain your sense of value

Less than half of patient-care physicians work for physician-owned practices.
