Adfinitas Health APP Training Program

“Having the Pediatric hospitalists’ program here at University of Maryland Charles Regional Medical Center (CRMC) has contributed to our success and recognition in Newsweek 2020 in being listed as one of the Best Maternity hospitals in America. Although we are considered a level one nursery it is not uncommon for delivery of preterm infants to occur at our facility. Having the Pediatric Hospitalist readily available during every delivery maximizes the possibility of a positive perinatal outcome.”

Nurse Manager Women’s Services, University of Maryland Charles Regional Medical Center

“At Fauquier Health, we have a particular advantage over most other hospitals our size when it comes to caring for pediatric patients. Having strong, experienced pediatricians available to evaluate our youngest patients, 24 hours a day, offers a level of care that is not often seen in a community hospital. This allows us to have our sicker pediatric patients, after presenting to the Emergency Department, evaluated also by a pediatrician, who can offer another expert perspective on the patient’s care. We are fortunate to have this service available to us, and our community benefits from the expertise of these dedicated professionals.”

– Michael Jenks, MD, FACEP
Chairman, Department of Emergency Medicine, Fauquier Health, Warrenton, VA

“Adfinitas Health physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants are consistently present in the facility throughout the week, assuring patients are seen and assessed promptly, an integral part of successfully managing medical issues. This team presence in the facility not only heightens medical vigilance; it also secures enhanced dialogue between physician, nursing staff, resident, and family – a gold standard in healthcare. Truly this is a model that is ahead of its time!”

– Philip J. Gordon Sr.
NHA, Administrator, Crofton Care & Rehabilitation Center

“With Adfinitas Health, we have stabilized our turnover among providers and our stakeholders remain positively engaged in our hospital and its operation. They possess a depth of providers that are well developed at the medical director level, a key component for the hospitalist service. By partnering with Adfinitas Health, we are able to transition to population health management and modify our financial incentives under a global cap budget. It has been a very positive experience for us.”

– James J. Xinis
Former President & CEO, Calvert Memorial Hospital

“About three years ago, we were looking for another way to provide care in the increasingly complex post-acute care setting following hospitalizations. The challenges for physicians to care for their patients, manage the call system, and do this in a cost-effective way have become overwhelming. Adfinitas Health understands costs, re-hospitalization rates, and how to measure performance. They’re able to bring their hospital experience and experience in other geographic locations to the table and I think that’s useful.”

– Ted Howe, MD, FAAFP
Medical Director, Brooke Grove Foundation

“The community physician model wasn’t working for us any longer. We would call doctors and they wouldn’t answer because they had no backup, no coverage. Adfinitas Health and its APP model now allow us to take more difficult patients, achieve better outcomes and improve our reputation.”

– Teresa Robinson
Director of Nursing, Sagepoint Senior Living Services

“I’ve worked with the physicians and physician assistants of Adfinitas Health since its inception in 2007. They’re highly engaged members of our medical staff, contributing to our quality improvement initiatives along with their own. They have developed a model of inpatient care and medical co-management that has won support from many members of our medical staff. I can recommend them to any hospital and medical staff.”

– Joseph D. Moser, M.D
Chief Medical Officer, University of Maryland Medical System, Charles Regional Medical Center

The leadership teams at both Adfinitas Health and CMH connected from day one. We’ve seen firsthand that a well-run, efficient IDT model greatly improves the patient care environment, quality of care, and the bottom line—something our previous partner didn’t recognize.”

– Dr. Brian Santin
Vascular Surgeon and Chief Medical Officer, Clinton Memorial Hospital

“Adfinitas Health is a true partner, involved at all levels of hospital operations, patient safety, patient quality, and medical staff leadership.”

– David Lauver
Chief Nursing Officer, Medical Director, BWMC

“The entire Adfinitas team has a high work ethic and level of integrity. They do a really good job.”
