SCP Health

What SCP Health does

SCP Health is a physician-led, private equity-backed healthcare services company that provides integrated acute care staffing and clinical management to hospitals and health systems across the United States. Its core services span emergency medicine, hospital medicine, and critical care medicine, delivered through two distinct engagement models: SCP Performance Edge, in which the client hospital retains clinician employment while leveraging SCP's infrastructure and support, and SCP Outsourced Advantage, a fully delegated model in which SCP Health employs clinicians and manages operations end-to-end. The company reports 7,500+ clinicians, 50+ years of operational experience, and an annual impact of $160M+ in uncompensated care and approximately $375M in healthcare system savings through length-of-stay reductions.

The company's technology stack centers on an AI-supported scheduling and predictive forecasting system for shift management, a HIPAA-compliant internal communication suite (mySCP Connect, mySCP Care, and mySCP Practice), and an analytics platform that tracks quality metrics including Case Mix Index, length of stay, mortality rates, and MIPS performance. Revenue is generated primarily through managed services contracts and professional service fees with hospital and health system partners on multi-year engagements, with a growing subscription/recurring component from virtual care and telehealth programs including SCP Connected Care and Hospital at Home.

SCP Health serves acute care hospitals ranging from rural community facilities to large multi-hospital systems, with additional focus on intensive care units and virtual nursing programs. The customer base includes named systems such as Valley Health (Virginia/West Virginia), South Texas Health System McAllen, Citizens Medical Center, Driscoll Children's Hospital, CHI St. Vincent, and others. The company is headquartered in Lafayette, Louisiana, with additional corporate offices in Atlanta, Dallas, and Traverse City, and is led by CEO Rich D'Amaro with a physician executive bench including enterprise and service-line CMOs across emergency medicine, hospital medicine, and critical care.
