What Midwest Physicians Anesthesia does

Midwest Physicians Anesthesia Services, Inc. (MPAS) is a physician-owned anesthesia practice founded in 1961 and headquartered at 5151 Reed Road, Suite 225C, Columbus, Ohio. The company delivers anesthesia care across hospital and surgical facility locations in Central Ohio through a service portfolio that includes anesthesiologist-led care, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) services, post-operative nursing support, and specialized obstetric anesthesia covering labor epidurals, spinal anesthesia, and cesarean-section general anesthesia. MPAS administers more than 62,000 anesthesia cases annually, including over 7,500 epidural anesthetics at Riverside Methodist and Dublin Hospitals, indicating a high-volume clinical operation concentrated within a single regional market.

The company's go-to-market is structured as a B2B professional services relationship built around a deep operational partnership with the OhioHealth hospital network. MPAS providers deliver anesthesia services at OhioHealth-affiliated facilities including Riverside Methodist Hospital, OhioHealth Dublin Hospital, and a Pickerington location. Revenue is generated by billing anesthesia procedures separately from hospital and surgical fees, processed through direct insurance billing along with patient co-pays and deductibles. Patient billing is supported by a third-party online payment portal at patientportal.myadsc.com, with additional payment options by phone and mail and financial assistance programs aligned with OhioHealth and partner facility policies.

On the administrative side, MPAS operates a credentialing stack that includes Modio (provider onboarding and documentation management), CAQH (provider credentialing database), NPPES (identity verification and NPI management through Identity & Access), OhioHealth Associate Health and Wellness (TB testing), and FastFingerprints (background screening). The practice is HIPAA-compliant and was recognized as a 2023 Best Places to Work honoree by Columbus Business First. MPAS is led by CEO Kyle Brown, actively recruits both new-graduate and experienced CRNAs, and offers a competitive benefits package that includes a $20,000 sign-on bonus, $2,000 annual CME allowance, and 100% paid family healthcare premium with no nights, weekends, or holidays required.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Regional players

• Anesthesia Associates of Cincinnati: Physician-owned anesthesia group serving hospitals and surgery centers in the Cincinnati region. Closely mirrors MPAS's regional, physician-owned model delivering hospital-based anesthesia care within an Ohio metro market, but in a different geography.
• Western Reserve Anesthesia: Ohio-based physician group providing anesthesia services to hospitals and surgery centers in Northeast Ohio. Comparable regional anesthesia practice serving Ohio hospital systems, though not operating in MPAS's Central Ohio territory.

Direct peers

• NorthStar Anesthesia: Hospital-focused anesthesia management group operating across multiple states with iCare and perioperative service offerings. Competes head-to-head with MPAS for hospital anesthesia contracts at comparable scale per site.
• PhyMed Healthcare Group: Anesthesia and pain management services provider serving hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers. Comparable scope of clinical services and similar B2B go-to-market targeting hospital systems, now part of Jackson Healthcare.
• Somnia Anesthesia: National anesthesia practice management company providing hospital-based anesthesia coverage. Same customer profile (hospital systems), same service lines (anesthesiologist + CRNA), making it a direct competitor for the same hospital RFPs MPAS wins.
• Premier Anesthesia: National anesthesia management company specializing in hospital OR staffing and perioperative leadership. Comparable service model (anesthesiologists + CRNAs embedded in hospital systems) and a direct competitor for community-hospital contracts.
• US Anesthesia Partners: Largest U.S. physician-owned anesthesia group with PE backing, delivering hospital-based anesthesia across multiple states. Directly comparable business model (anesthesiologist + CRNA staffing of hospital ORs) but at national scale versus MPAS's regional Central Ohio footprint.
• North American Partners in Anesthesia: Major anesthesia and perioperative services group serving hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers across the U.S. Closely aligned model—anesthesiologist- and CRNA-led care delivered inside hospital systems—making it one of the most direct comparables to MPAS.

Broad incumbents

• Sound Physicians: National physician services company focused on hospital medicine, emergency medicine, critical care, and anesthesia. Overlaps with MPAS through its anesthesia practice and shares the same hospital-system customer base.
• Envision Healthcare: Large multi-specialty physician services platform that historically included a major anesthesia services arm. Overlaps with MPAS through hospital-based anesthesia and broader perioperative services, though Envision operates at much greater scale and across multiple specialties.
