APP does not purchase medical practices from ophthalmologists or optometrists. We work as partners to enhance a practice’s performance for its owners. APP will invest in and co-venture eye services with practitioners and health systems.
APP will provide project-specific consulting support to practices. Areas of expertise, experience and special interest for consulting support include strategic planning, practice productivity performance evaluations, mergers, acquisitions and sales, marketing, practice ownership restructurings, provider compensation plans and clinical program design and development.
APP will source and provide capital for co-investment in strategic projects such as ambulatory surgery centers, clinical facilities and retail product enterprises (optical shops, for example). APP may be a co-investor and co-manager of such investments along with active, practicing providers.
APP will provide ongoing, senior-level advisory support to administrative and physician leaders. These arrangements are retainer-based, extending for more prolonged periods and typically addressing a list of issues requiring experienced problem-solving and decision-making. Retainer-based arrangements deliver APP’s full portfolio of support capabilities provided through a single point of contact with a senior APP services professional.
APP will, for qualified practices, extend practice support services by way of long-term services agreements. These Management Services Agreements (MSA’s) facilitate the extension of such services as: patient billing and revenue cycle management, full financial record keeping, performance analytics, benchmarking and reporting, practice productivity performance analytics and reporting, human resource policies and procedures systems support, practice insurances and risk management support, accounts payable systems support, employee payroll management and capital asset management support, including facilities.
APP is always seeking forward thinking eye care professionals who believe they are better off with like-minded partners. We partner best with health care professionals who may require external expertise, management support and outside capital, but who wish to remain active in the leadership and operations of their practice. Our most successful partnerships are with practice leaders, medical and managerial, who wish to collaborate across an integrated network of like-minded, dedicated partners.
APP partners with the Frauenshuh Commercial Real Estate organization (Frauenshuh) to bring integrated eye care services facility solutions to our clients.

Facilities developed range in size from 10,000 to 300,000 square feet of custom designed and developed space. APP senior staff work in partnership with Frauenshuh on the design, development, financing and management of facilities developed for eye services practices; medical, surgical and retail space.
