Back to Treating Patients
Disadvantages your practice is facing:
- 25-40% higher costs in areas like malpractice insurance, employee benefits, and administrative overhead compared to large health systems.
- Fully insured benefits and fragmented purchasing power lead to margin erosion.
Advantages of joining Freedom Medical Solutions:
- Significant cost reductions - e.g., 85% prescription cost savings, 25%+ benefits cost reduction.
- Example impact - $1.4 million in annual savings/value returned to physicians for one facility in one year, with zero equity surrendered.
- Practices gain the economic power of a large (e.g., 5,000-employee) system while remaining fully independent owners and decision-makers.
The "Third Path" Model
Freedom Medical Solutions builds shared infrastructure through a collective/aggregated structure without buying practices or interfering in clinical operations. Key components include:
- Single-Employer Structure: A unified employment platform for administrative/HR/payroll staff across participating practices (not a traditional PEO). This unlocks large-group economics (e.g., for practices with <50 employees) for benefits, payroll, and HR.
- Captive Insurance: We place medical malpractice and employee benefits into a fully managed captive. Practices collectively own the captive entity, so premiums build institutional wealth, reserves, and equity rather than flowing to external carriers as profit. This turns insurance from an expense into an asset.
