What Applied Statistics & Management does

Applied Statistics & Management, Inc. (ASM), operating as MD-Staff, is a privately held, family-owned healthcare software vendor founded in 1982 and headquartered in Temecula, California. The company develops and sells MD-Staff, an AI-powered, cloud-based credentialing, privileging, and enrollment platform used by more than 3,000 healthcare facilities worldwide to onboard, verify, and continuously monitor medical staff. The platform processes over five million primary source verifications annually and is differentiated by its proprietary Aiva AI engine (introduced 2018) — encompassing Aiva Cycles for workflow automation, Aiva IQ for proactive verification, and Aiva Aware for data-validity monitoring — and by the Checksome™ blockchain-based verification layer.

The product suite is modular: MD-App handles online provider applications, MD-Stat powers peer review and OPPE/FPPE analytics, E-Priv distributes privileges digitally, Virtual Committee runs remote credentialing meetings, Managed Care/Enrollment automates payer enrollment, and MD-Staff Passport™ pre-populates applications from AMA, DEA, NPPES, CMS, and ABMS data. The platform integrates with the American Medical Association, state licensing boards, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and major EMR systems, and is SOC2 Type II compliant with partial WCAG 2.1 AA conformance. ASM has won Best in KLAS for Credentialing for six consecutive years (2020-2026) with 97% customer satisfaction and 100% repurchase intent.

ASM monetizes primarily through enterprise subscription licensing with module-based pricing sold via direct enterprise field sales organized regionally (Eastern, Midwest, Western regions), supplemented by a freemium self-serve channel via Checksome for smaller practices. With 51-100 employees and no disclosed external institutional capital, the company operates as a profitable, founder-controlled business serving healthcare facilities ranging from small community hospitals to large state medical health systems, with end customers including Centura Health.
