About the Company

University Physicians' Association

Practice support for physician groups

University Physicians' Association provides administrative and practice-management support for physicians and clinical groups in Tennessee. Its services help medical practices manage billing, finance, human resources, operations and other non-clinical functions that support patient care. The organization works alongside affiliated physicians and health-system partners rather than replacing the clinicians delivering treatment. UPA’s role is healthcare administration and physician enterprise support, making it distinct from a university, hospital or independent insurance carrier. Service delivery depends on clinical, operational and administrative teams working across its care settings.
