Gila Multi-Specialty

Independent

Practice Association

Our mission is to organize and operate a quality-driven and cost effective health care delivery system. The association consists of healthcare providers who enter into membership agreements with GMIPA to facilitate an environment that promotes healthcare practice viability.

About GMIPA Services

Late in 1996, a group of physicians in Silver City, NM began discussing the formation of an Independent Physicians Association. The GMIPA was formed officially when the Office of the State of New Mexico Corporation Commission granted a Certificate of Organization to Gila Multi-Specialty IPA, LLC on February 21, 1997. In April 1998 there were 41 physician members of GMIPA. Today, the GMIPA is comprised of a voting membership of over 90 medical doctors and a total membership of over 125 healthcare professionals.. A wide variety of healthcare providers including physicians, mid-levels, behavioral health therapists, nurse practitioners, physician’s assistants and others make our group a viable and valuable asset for healthcare professionals and the communities they serve.

The advantages of an IPA are the functions it performs for medical practices. As a Messenger Model, it negotiates contracts with insurance companies; assembles, credentials, and supports members. IPA’s offer members the advantage of strong leadership for the physicians and other healthcare providers with the drive to develop more mature organizations. The Gila Multi-specialty Independent Practice Associate (GMIPA)  supports a network of providers whose focus is to promote and deliver comprehensive, quality healthcare and undertakes several administrative functions that reduce healthcare costs. 

We’ve been serving New Mexico since 1997!

What is an IPA?

The advantages of an IPA are the functions it performs for medical practices. As a Messenger Model it supports contracts with insurance companies; assembles, credentials, and educates members. IPA’s offer members strong leadership and help drive groups to develop more mature organizations. IPA’s wield far greater power than individual physicians alone as they are able to undertake administrative functions that reduce healthcare costs
