The Playground difference

Playground’s partnership model combines everything we love about private practice with the things we appreciate about a larger group. This means you get access to support that can help your practice grow and thrive in today’s environment.

  • We believe you should be rewarded for the quality of care you deliver, which is why we help practices move to value-based care contracts to supplement fee-for-service billing. In order to be successful, we also provide full access to our technology platform that works with your existing EMR. This platform provides real-time reporting by patient, location, and provider.

  • Playground can help you add ancillary services lines that improve your patient experience, clinical outcomes, and business performance. These include behavioral health, nutrition services, lactation consulting, serving as a clinical trial site, and other specialty lines of business.

  • Playground can help support any of the administrative and back-office functions of your practice so you can focus on why you went into pediatrics: treating children. These areas of support include hiring, HR, RCM, finance and accounting, marketing, and technology among other areas.

Control your practice

Freedom to make all clinical decisions and maintain clinical autonomy

Maintain your private practice culture, while Playground helps you scale

Stay on your existing EMR, no requirement to change any existing software

Keep your practice name, no need to change external name or affiliation

“As a practicing pediatrician, I can appreciate that Playground allows providers to practice at the top of their license, deliver high-quality, equitable care, and still have the energy to come home and play with their kids at the end of the day.”
