Overview

Mission

Northern Physicians Organization's mission is to develop and manage a physician controlled integrated delivery system offering comprehensive medical services of quantifiable quality at a competitive price.

Value of NPO

Besides offering financial benefits including reduced malpractice rates, purchasing discounts, free education seminars and complimentary membership with partnering organizations, one of NPO's greatest values lies in the connection between area offices for the sharing of information. Alone, doctors and administrators have only their own skills and knowledge to help better their practice; as NPO members, everyone benefits from the tremendous pool of talent of the group.

"At our monthly NPO Board of Directors meeting, we had a lengthy discussion about patient care, changes in health care, and how we deal as a group with the complexities of insurance companies. The value was listening to the brilliant minds around the table from nurses, pharmacists, practice administrators, executive directors, and physicians. We all have different gifts and see the world a little differently. Because of this, we are able to problem solve and make plans to help shape a bright future for our physician members and the patients of the NPO regions."
