Superior Income and Benefits

Emergency Medical Associates (EMA) provides one of the most comprehensive and generous benefits plans in the country.  The plan includes health, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance as well as retirement programs geared toward physicians.

EMA’s financial package and intensely democratic organizational structure allows it to attract the best emergency physicians in the country.  EMA understands the benefits of allowing physicians a “federated autonomy” while supporting all their back-office corporate needs.  This structure provides the necessary onsite “ownership,” allowing physicians to practice excellent medicine without the distractions of having to run the business.

EMA has found that this model generates strong relationships with hospital medical staffs, nurses and administration and is one of the main reasons EMA continues to strategically grow. Physicians who join EMA have the opportunity to become partners after two years and a full partner after four years.  It is the partnership and ownership by the clinical physicians that creates the type of emergency physician group that hospitals want to choose for their Emergency Departments.
