What makes us different
When the building is a partner, every incentive points the same way.
Traditional medical-group relationships can place the operator and physician group on different sides of the table. Our partnership model is designed to remove that tension—so clinical quality and operational success reinforce one another.
The Fortis model
We align incentives at the root.
Interests pull apart
- Facility priorities: lower readmissions, stronger quality ratings, census growth
- Medical group incentives: visit volume, billing per encounter, provider utilization
- Result: friction, fragmented accountability, and inconsistent care
Interests converge
- Facility: shares directly in the success of the practice through our partnership structure
- Medical group: shares the same mission, with value-based arrangements that connect financial performance to outcomes
- Result: better patient outcomes and a clinical partner invested in your building
Research has consistently linked stronger physician-facility alignment with better care coordination, lower readmissions, and improved quality outcomes.
How alignment plays out
Alignment shows up every day.
We win when you win
Our success is tied to the building's success—not simply encounter volume.
Present, not passing through
Alignment means a team that is physically present, engaged in your workflow, and invested in your operation.
Outcomes over volume
Value-based arrangements reward keeping residents healthy and appropriately cared for in place—not maximizing visits.
Value-based care
A model that gets stronger as residents stay healthier.
For operators ready to go further, Fortis Care can structure value-based arrangements that recognize and reward the outcomes our core partnership is designed to produce.
Outcomes that reward both sides
When our team keeps residents healthier and avoids unnecessary transfers, the program recognizes that result—for both the clinical team and the operator.
Built around the same scoreboard
Arrangements can be tied to the quality measures and outcomes your building already manages, keeping clinical priorities and program incentives aligned.
A program that scales with your portfolio
Value-based and capitation arrangements can add meaningful upside as census grows and the model expands across multiple buildings—without changing the day-to-day partnership.
Participation is optional. Value-based arrangements are available to operators who want to pursue them, not a requirement of the Fortis partnership. The core model stands on its own.
Designed to complement iSNPs. If your building participates in an Institutional Special Needs Plan, the Fortis model can work alongside it. Our embedded clinical team supports the care management and quality outcomes iSNPs are designed to achieve.
Simple and compliant
Purpose-built—and built right.
Our partnership structure is designed to be straightforward for operators while remaining compliant with applicable healthcare regulations, including corporate practice of medicine requirements and federal fraud-and-abuse rules. Fortis Care manages the administrative and operational complexity so your team can stay focused on residents.
We are happy to walk operators and their counsel through how the structure works.
