As a member of Integrity Health Network, Central Minnesota Dermatology enjoys the benefits of being part of a network of primary care and specialty clinics—while still maintaining the advantages of remaining an independent practice. In addition to payer contracting and GPO access, we receive valuable information such as payer updates and governmental requirements that we might not be aware of as a small clinic with limited staffing. Members also benefit greatly from the ability to connect with other clinics in the network as a resource for issues, concerns, and ideas. There is a wealth of knowledge and experience available to member clinics, shared from the perspective of others who are also navigating the world of independent medicine.

Our decision to join Integrity Health Network (IHN) was made so we could collaborate with other private practice specialists in the Northland.

IHN has given us the opportunity to meet regularly, share information, and learn from a larger group. We also benefit from the IHN leadership team, who research and present information that is directly applicable to us and our practice.
