Hospital Physician Partners

What Hospital Physician Partners does

Hospital Physician Partners, doing business as SCP Health, is a private, physician-led healthcare services company founded in 1994 and headquartered in Hollywood, Florida, with additional corporate offices in Lafayette, Atlanta, Dallas, and Traverse City. The company provides emergency medicine, hospital medicine, and critical care medicine management services to hospitals and health systems across multiple U.S. states, operating through two distinct engagement models: SCP Performance Edge, in which the client hospital retains clinician employment while SCP supplies infrastructure and operational support, and SCP Outsourced Advantage, in which SCP directly employs clinicians and assumes end-to-end operational responsibility.

The company's core offering is delivered through dedicated hospitalist and emergency department staffing programs supplemented by quality performance management, recruiting and onboarding, documentation and coding/revenue cycle services, clinical training, and analytics. SCP Health has expanded its service line beyond traditional inpatient staffing with two notable platform extensions: SCP Connected Care, a care coordination platform designed to bridge gaps between care sites through integration with hospital EMR systems (Epic, Cerner); and Hospital at Home, an acute-care-at-home program operated through a dedicated clinical command center. Underlying these services is a clinical operations stack that incorporates AI predictive forecasting for clinician scheduling and shift management, processing structured demand and availability data to align staffing with patient volume.

Revenue is generated through B2B managed services contracts negotiated directly with hospital and health system C-suites and clinical leadership. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured per engagement based on scope, facility size, and model (outsourced vs. performance edge). The company serves a broad mix of partner hospitals including Johnson City Medical Center (Level I Trauma, 445 beds), Jackson North Medical Center (382 beds, 57K annual ED volume), South Texas Health System McAllen, Citizens Medical Center, Driscoll Children's Hospital, CHI St. Vincent Infirmary, Knox Community Hospital, and Advocate Condell Immediate Care Center. The reported impact metrics include 1.32% LWOT/AMA rate (below 2% threshold), 3.4-day average length of stay vs. 4.96-day national average, 11.8% all-cause readmissions vs. 14.7% CMS average, and $160 million in uncompensated care delivered annually, alongside an estimated $375 million in healthcare system savings.
