Setting the standard for quality physician advisor services.
MedManagement announces the launch of EdiPhy Advisors, a new name for our Physician Advisor Services. We believe this name better communicates the work we do, how we do that work and the results we deliver for clients.
The name EdiPhy Advisors was inspired by the word, edify, defined by Dictionary .com as “to instruct or to benefit, especially morally…” To edify is to help someone understand, to enlighten them, to illuminate or to inspire. EdiPhy Advisors maintains currency with health care law as well as rules, regulations and guidance relative to medical necessity and appropriateness of care, thus educating and enlightening our clients relative to the nuances of health care law, rules and regulations. EdiPhy Advisors’ staff possess extensive knowledge and experience in the practices of medicine and law, as well as the application of that experience to regulatory compliance in health care.
MedManagement, LLC was founded in 1995 to provide clinical and financial management tools and resources to providers. With a keen eye toward the ever-changing healthcare regulatory landscape, we identify the needs of health care providers and insurers, responding with valuable services and meaningful insights. MedManagement, LLC remains the corporate parent of EdiPhy Advisors.
