Emory Healthcare Network

What is the Emory Healthcare Network?

The Emory Healthcare Network is a collaborative effort among physicians, hospitals and the Emory Healthcare system that develops effective and ongoing clinical initiatives to:

  • Better manage patient care.
  • Improve the quality of services.
  • Control costs.
  • Improve reimbursement for physicians who meet network participation requirements and performance goals. The network achieves this by engaging in organized care management and cost-effective practices that make it possible to create better contracting with insurance providers.
  • Present a proven business model and clinical strategy that enables members to thrive in a new healthcare market landscape of consumer choice, pay-for-performance, accountable care and quality report cards.
