PPN and its Independent Practice Association, The Plano Physicians’ Group (PPG) are physician owned and physician-led organizations committed to improving the health of the community that we serve.

We are an innovative company and have been at the forefront of physician support services to aid physicians in navigating the healthcare marketplace. Using data analysis obtained through our clinical integration program we assist our physicians in understanding the concepts of cost, utilization and quality in healthcare.

Membership responsibilities include using In-Network facilities when you provide care for your patients and choosing Preferred In-Network facilities whenever possible. This very important precept allows PPN to participate in value based care delivery and affords our providers the best benefits.

PPN is committed to the preservation of physician independence in the age of healthcare reform. As a PPN physician, you maintain your autonomy in running your own practice, but have access to the enhancing resources of a larger group of like-minded practitioners.
