Our approach is to offer physician practices varying mechanisms to enhance care coordination, quality, and efficiency to manage our patients' health throughout the entirety of their care experiences. Merit is proactively responding to the pressure on today's independent providers during an era riddled with evolving reimbursement methodologies, provider and payer consolidation, and relentless regulatory uncertainty. Merit provides an opportunity for advocacy efforts to not only sustain independence but thrive.
