Revenue model

1. Medical Services Reimbursement: Revenue generated through insurance billing for office visits, preventive health services, chronic disease management, acute care, minor procedures, osteopathic manipulation therapy, and in-office testing. Accepts Medicare (assignment accepted), Medicare Advantage plans, HMO plans (Aetna, Cigna, Florida Blue, FHCP, United Healthcare), PPO plans, and fee-for-service plans.
2. Annual Administrative PCP Fee: Starting September 1, 2025, a required Annual Administrative Primary Care Physician Fee is charged to non-Medicare patients: $100 per adult patient and $50 per pediatric patient (through age 21) annually. This fee defrays the cost of unreimbursed administrative services including medication refills, result updates, phone treatment, care coordination, referral processing, insurance authorization, and form completion. Medicare patients are exempt.
3. Clinical Research: Through subsidiary Oviedo Medical Research LLC, the practice conducts pharmaceutical clinical trials as a 'Clinical Investigator' practice. Qualified patients may participate at no cost to them or their insurance, and participants receive financial compensation for time and travel. This generates research revenue.
