We’re a clinician-led organization dedicated to delivering the right care
At Optum, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. Recognizing that clinicians are at the heart of this mission, we created the Partnership Program to honor your leadership and contributions to the practice of medicine.
Through this program, we will support and invest in you with comprehensive training and leadership development opportunities. We will strengthen your practice with access to Optum Health's extensive resources. And, we will connect you with colleagues to foster learning, celebrate achievements and share a common purpose.
The Optum physician practices ("Practices") are physician owned and led practices having complete authority for all medical decision-making and patient care through their employed physicians and other licensed professionals. Optum, through its owned management organizations, provides non-clinical administrative services to support the Practices and their physicians and licensed professionals. As required by state law, neither Optum nor its management companies employs, engages, or supervises physicians or other licensed professionals, or determines or sets the methods, standards, or conduct of the practice of medicine or health care provided by the practices or its licensed professionals. “Part of Optum” reflects that the Practices are part of Optum’s effort to support forward thinking physician practices in helping their patients live healthier lives.
