INTERESTED IN MEMBERSHIP?

SGPA has built a model that physicians in rural communities can join through direct membership, or when available, the purchase of stock. SGPA can also provide administrative functions for those physicians' organizations already in existence.

MEMBERSHIP DUES

The dues for primary care physicians are $1500 per year and $2000 per year for specialist. SGPA's economies of scale savings will more than pay for annual dues for each physician. These savings are made available through discounts in malpractice insurance, officers and directors insurance, property insurance, and disability insurance. SGPA is building a purchasing co-op for its' member use. Through negotiations with Health Care Solutions, Inc., a subsidiary of Mag Mutual, the SGPA can offer state of the art billing and collection services, dictation services, financial planning and much more at tremendous savings for SGPA members.

BENEFITS OF SGPA

The most obvious benefit to joining the SGPA is group contracting for managed care. SGPA has secured over 20 statewide and direct contracts that cover over 3 million lives throughout Georgia. Many of the covered lives are in the rural areas that go under served because the networks and their payers look to the larger markets to contract. In doing so, these networks encourage your patients to leave their community for the same health care services that are available to them locally. Through participation in SGPA contracts, physicians are assured they can never be removed as a provider from a health care network without the approval of the SGPA Board of Directors.
