Alteon Health is a physician led medical group providing patient-centered quality care in hospitals nationwide. Our team includes emergency medicine providers, hospitalists, home care providers, telemedicine, and other services.
At Alteon Health we’re advancing positive outcomes for hospitals, physicians, and patients—each and every day.
In 2017 we saw an opportunity to bring together the best in our industry to create an unrivaled network of partners and drive better outcomes for the people we serve.
To deliver on this opportunity, we brought together two leaders in our industry—Emergency Medicine Associates (EMA) and Island Medical Management (IMM).
EMA, a physician-owned practice, has been a leader in emergency medical services since 1971, serving 1,000,000 patients annually across Washington, D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia.
IMM, also a physician-owned organization providing services in emergency medicine and hospital medicine, has over 20 years of experience in medical management and touches two million patients each year through its 80+ programs.
With common values and complementary strengths, these two organizations are uniquely suited to come together as Alteon Health, a name that signals our commitment to setting a higher standard in healthcare, each and every day.
For hospitals, this means assembling a staff of the most engaged, loyal and highly performing physicians in the industry—enhancing their departments and enabling the highest quality service.
For physicians, this means creating an environment that promotes career development and ongoing clinical improvement. By leveraging leading data, we help physicians be their best, while the back-office and administrative support of the national organization allows them to concentrate on their patients.
Each day, we’re advancing towards better outcomes with a people-powered approach—and we’ve only just begun.
