About us
ProHealth Physicians is Connecticut’s largest physician-led health care delivery system. Formed in 1997, it includes more than 360 primary care and specialty physicians and advanced practice clinicians, and offers a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic services. Made up of community-based physician practices, ProHealth focuses on continuous improvement and ongoing expansion of clinical programs to support wellness and to prevent and treat chronic illnesses. With over 90 locations throughout the state of Connecticut, our family of primary care doctors and specialists care for more than 360,000 people statewide.

What sets us apart
As a leading physician organization, ProHealth is committed to providing quality healthcare services. What makes us different is our understanding that the practice of medicine must continue beyond the walls of the exam room. We're leaders in thinking and in serving our communities.  For instance, we're a C.M.S. approved Accountable Care Organization (ACO), covering over 30,000 Medicare patients associated with our community-based primary care providers. We're also nationally recognized as a NCQA Level III Medical Home.

The traditional approach to healthcare is treating patients who are already sick. At ProHealth, we have designed a program that emphasizes prevention and screening measures in order to preserve wellness. By doing so, we strive to minimize the occurrence of illness and moderate the onset of more serious medical conditions. For those who are acutely ill, we are committed to early intervention with coordinated care that restores health. Our disease management programs and tools enable us to improve the care and management of patients who have chronic medical conditions as well.

As the healthcare system continues to evolve and introduce new challenges, ProHealth will be prepared. Our commitment to our healthcare partners will not change. We will continue to measure ourselves based on the value we add to our relationships.
