US Digestive Health

What US Digestive Health does

US Digestive Health (USDH) is a physician-led, professionally managed gastroenterology practice platform operating 40+ office locations and 24 ambulatory surgery centers across Southeastern, Central, and Southwestern Pennsylvania and Delaware. Founded in 2019 by Amulet Capital Partners in partnership with member practice physicians, USDH has assembled a network of 250+ GI specialists and more than 1,300 total employees, making it the 3rd largest gastroenterology practice in the United States. The platform operates through US Digestive Health Management (USDHM), an MSO providing administrative, technology, compliance, and business management services to wholly owned subsidiary practices including Regional Gastroenterology Associates of Lancaster, Main Line Gastroenterology Associates, Digestive Disease Associates, Carlisle Digestive Disease Associates, The Center for GI Health, and multiple ambulatory surgery centers (Carlisle Endoscopy Center, GI-ASC, Blair Endoscopy Center, Delaware Center for Digestive Care, among others).

The core offering spans the full spectrum of gastroenterology care — from colonoscopy screening, upper endoscopy, capsule endoscopy, ERCP, endoscopic ultrasound, and ablation procedures to hemorrhoid banding and esophageal diagnostics — anchored by "The Platinum Standard" colonoscopy protocol, which integrates GI Genius AI-enhanced polyp detection (the largest installation nationally and first in Pennsylvania) into the screening workflow. Adjacent product lines include a Fast-Track Colonoscopy direct-scheduling program for adults 45+, telehealth consultations, and a clinical research program operating four dedicated research sites running 100+ trials across an 80,000+ patient registry. Distribution is delivered through physical sites, telehealth, and Clinically Integrated Network partnerships with Main Line Health, Lancaster General Health, and Tower Health, with a five-year Highmark payer contract (September 2024) anchoring in-network access for commercial, Medicare Advantage, and Medicaid members in PA/DE.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional services billing to patients and insurance payers (including Highmark) for GI consultations and procedures, with a secondary revenue stream from pharmaceutical and medical device clinical trial contracts. The company operates under a PE roll-up model — acquiring and integrating independent GI practices, deploying shared technology, and centralizing back-office operations — consistent with healthcare PE consolidation strategies. No revenue figures are publicly disclosed.
