Many healthcare organizations have physician clients who are requesting MSO services such as billing and practice management, however these healthcare organizations are not willing to make the tremendous financial investment or take the time to develop an MSO model for these services. Argus is a Management Services Organization (MSO) providing services to over 300 physicians and other healthcare organizations with economies of scale and state of the art systems. Argus can provide complete MSO services on behalf of other healthcare organizations (such as IPAs, hospitals and large medical groups) to their respective physician clients.

MSO SERVICES:

MSO SERVICES MODEL AND PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES:

The healthcare organization contracts directly with its physician clients for MSO services. The MSO then sub-contracts with Argus to provide these services from an a la carte menu. The healthcare organization can brand label all services as being directly from them – Argus is behind the scene. Argus can assist the healthcare organizations with writing contracts with their physician clients, developing marketing materials, and financial modeling.
