PriMed Physicians is a multi-specialty group of 50 physicians and other health professionals providing care in 17 locations throughout the Greater Dayton area.

 

In 2001, the group met to consider health care in the next millennium and their role in that future. Inspired by Jim Collins book, Good to Great, after many discussions, the group decided that it would commit to distinguishing itself in the dimensions of quality and cost-effectiveness of health care delivery.
