Indiana Pediatrics Inc

Vaccine general purchasing organization: ipi contracts with the vaccine manufacturers to serve as a general purchasing organization (gpo) for its members. As a gpo, ipi provides contract administration for its members. Ipi receives an administrative fee from the vaccination manufacturers, based on purchases by its members. The administrative fees are used to cover the operating expenses of the organization and to help offset membership dues. All ipi physicians strive to improve the health and well-being of children in the state of indiana in all aspects of healthcare, including immunizations for their patients.

Messenger model contracting: when a physician is a member of ipi and when a group messenger model is made available to ipi, physicians may opt in or out of participation. The physician has the ability to accept or reject any health plan participation. As a part of our ongoing membership services, ipi updates members on coding and icd10 changes/updates through our coding seminar and conveying urgent information by email on a timely basis. Ipi works with contract holders on the specifics or problems that arise for the pediatric practices.
