Independent practice. All of it.
Colorado Infectious Disease Practices, Vetted and Independent
Before you accept a hospital offer in Colorado, see how many physician-owned infectious disease groups already exist. The answer is 34, and it changes everything you can ask for in negotiation.
For 15 years the path was visible. Pre-clinical, clinical, sub-I, Match, intern year, residency, fellowship. Every transition had a name and a date.
Once you can name three independent infectious disease groups in your target city, every clause in your hospital contract becomes negotiable in a way it was not five minutes ago. The same non-compete, the same productivity formula, the same partnership track suddenly have something to be measured against. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.

About this directory and the Colorado infectious disease market
The training years were structured. The first contract is not.
Then PGY-Final hits, and the page is blank. A recruiter calls. A contract lands in your inbox with a 50-mile non-compete, an opaque productivity model, and a signing bonus you do not understand the strings on.
The map of independent infectious disease in Colorado was never compiled. So we compiled it. 34 practices, all physician-owned, all in one place. Now you can see what is around you before you sign into one corner of it.
What other resources point to in Colorado
This page lists 34 infectious disease practices in Colorado that are physician-owned and independently operated. Every listing comes from the NPPES NPI Registry, cross-referenced with DataForSEO business data for addresses, phone numbers, and websites. I've filtered out hospital systems, corporate medical groups, PE-backed entities, and academic positions. The result is 34 practices across 8 cities where doctors, not administrators or investors, run the show.
What makes this useful is specificity. Instead of scrolling through a job board where hospital positions, locum postings, and real private practice opportunities all look the same, you get a focused list of physician-owned infectious disease practices in Colorado. Every one has been verified through the federal NPI registry. Contact information and websites are included so you can start your research without a recruiter standing between you and the practice.

Frequently asked questions about infectious disease in Colorado
How many Infectious Disease private practices are in Colorado?
There are 27 physician-owned infectious disease private practices in Colorado, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.
What does physician-owned mean?
A physician-owned practice is one where licensed physicians hold controlling ownership of the business entity. This is distinct from hospital employment, corporate medical groups, or private equity-backed practices where non-physician entities control the business.
What does the Corporate-Acquired or MSO-Affiliated flag mean?
The Corporate-Acquired flag means the practice was historically physician-owned but has since been acquired by a corporate entity such as Optum. The MSO-Affiliated flag means the practice uses a Management Services Organization for billing and administration while physicians retain practice-level ownership.
Inpatient Consulting vs. Outpatient Models in Colorado Infectious Disease Practice
NPPES is the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, a federal database maintained by CMS. Every practice in this directory has an active NPI record in NPPES, confirming it is a registered U.S. medical practice.
What outpatient revenue sources do private infectious disease practices in Colorado use?
Private ID practices in Colorado with strong outpatient models often combine: HIV primary care (with Ryan White Title III grant funding where applicable, which supports the practice financially for uninsured patients), travel medicine (yellow fever vaccination, malaria prophylaxis, pre-travel consultations, largely cash-pay), and outpatient antibiotic infusion therapy (OPAT) for patients completing IV antibiotic courses at home or in the office. These outpatient revenue streams reduce dependence on hospital inpatient admissions volume.

Key Terms in Physician Contracts
Collections-Based Compensation
A pay model in which a physician's income is tied directly to the revenue collected from their patient encounters. The physician typically receives a percentage of collections (40 to 55 percent is common) after overhead. This model rewards high-volume, high-acuity work but creates income variability.
Malpractice Insurance
Professional liability coverage that protects physicians against claims of medical negligence. Two main types exist: claims-made (covers claims only if both the incident and filing occur during the active policy) and occurrence-based (covers any incident during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is filed). Premium costs vary dramatically by specialty and state.
Ancillary Revenue
Income generated by a medical practice from services beyond physician office visits. Common sources include in-office imaging, laboratory testing, physical therapy, infusion services, and dispensing. Ancillary revenue can account for 20 to 40 percent of total practice revenue in procedure-heavy specialties.
NPPES (National Plan and Provider Enumeration System)
The federal registry maintained by CMS that assigns and tracks NPIs for all U.S. healthcare providers. NPPES data is publicly searchable and includes provider name, practice address, taxonomy codes, and enumeration date.
Restrictive Covenant Buyout
A contractual provision that allows a departing physician to pay a defined sum to eliminate or reduce a non-compete restriction. Some states, including Texas, require physician non-competes to include a buyout option at fair market value. Many states do not mandate this, making it a negotiable term.
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
A federal program providing funding to states, metropolitan areas, and clinics to provide care and treatment for low-income people living with HIV who lack adequate health coverage. Ryan White-funded clinics can receive grants that support clinical operations serving uninsured or underinsured HIV patients.
OPAT (Outpatient Parenteral Antibiotic Therapy)
Administration of intravenous antibiotics in an outpatient setting (home, infusion center, or physician office) for infections requiring prolonged IV treatment. OPAT services billed by the managing ID physician generate professional fee revenue; if the practice provides the infusion facility, additional facility fees may apply.
