Become a CCP Practitioner or Practice

Community Care Physicians is focused on the physician-led model of medicine. We are a physician-owned and managed Professional Corporation governed by a Board of Directors comprised of physicians. As such, we are guided by those who are practicing in our offices every day and the daily practice of medicine is focused on creating an optimal experience for the patient and physician. CCP embraces the independent practice of medicine and provides framework and support that allows doctors to focus on what they do best – practice medicine. Our organization has been highly successful over the past 30+ years. We encourage practitioners to participate in decisions, so we can remain focused on how our goals and objectives impact our team and our patients.

Our business model is attractive to those who find the cost of billing, information systems, regulatory compliance, practice coordination and other expenses to be overwhelming for a small practice. It is also appealing to larger practices that prefer to maintain their independence rather than join a hospital-based system.
