See how our model works

Caring For Patients—And Those Who Care For Them.

At SIS, compassion extends to patients, families, and our care teams. We listen with empathy, communicate clearly, and support those navigating illness alongside their loved ones.

Our group has a strong track record of supporting clinicians’ work-life balance. Clinicians shape their own schedules in collaboration with management, balancing personal needs with dependable patient coverage. This flexibility reflects our belief that those who care for others deserve care, too.

Supporting the Next Generation of Clinicians

Some SIS clinicians welcome medical students and nurse practitioner students for supervised clinical learning, sharing their experience and helping prepare the next generation of healthcare professionals.

Learning opportunities depend on clinician availability and facility requirements.

What we do

The SIS model

Care That Continues Beyond Discharge

Transitions are vulnerable moments. Our model emphasizes robust communication so the care plan remains clear as the patient moves between settings.

Community ProvidersClear handoff for safe ongoing care

At discharge, SIS communicates pertinent clinical information to community physicians and specialists. Ongoing outpatient and primary care remain with the patient’s established providers.

Performance focus

Performance That Matters

SIS consistently compares favorably with established benchmarks in patient experience, length of stay, and avoidable readmissions.

Patient Experience

Physicians who listen carefully and treat patients with respect.

Efficient Care

Reduced length of stay without compromising quality.

Successful Transitions

Coordinated discharge planning that helps reduce avoidable readmissions.

Clinical Excellence

Thoughtful medical management for complex patients.

Communication

Clear, respectful collaboration with everyone involved in care.

Accountability

Physician leadership, performance measurement, and improvement.

For healthcare organizations

A Physician Partner Built Around Coverage, Quality, And Continuity.

Healthcare organizations need more than scheduled shifts. They need dependable coverage, responsive leadership, operational alignment, and physicians who understand the full patient journey.

SIS combines an established regional clinician network with an integrated acute and post-acute model—an infrastructure designed to support responsible growth, new partnerships, and expansion across the Phoenix metropolitan area.

Understanding Your Care And Your SIS Bill

Who is Scottsdale Inpatient Specialists?

SIS is a physician group whose clinicians provide medical care in hospitals and post-acute facilities. You may have been treated by an SIS physician even if you did not schedule an office appointment with our group.

Why did I receive a separate bill from SIS?

Hospitals, facilities, and physicians may bill separately. An SIS statement is for professional services provided by an SIS clinician and is separate from hospital, laboratory, radiology, or specialist charges.

Who do I contact with billing questions?

For questions about an SIS statement, insurance processing, or payment options, contact revMD at (480) 355-3680 or PFS@revMD.com.

This website is not monitored for urgent medical needs. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Do not submit protected health information by ordinary email.
