Physician-Owned Infectious Disease Groups in Mississippi
23 independent infectious disease practices across Mississippi, cross-referenced against NPPES, state medical boards, and each practice's own website. Negotiate from leverage instead of from gratitude.
Years one through fifteen had structure. A curriculum. A rotation block. An attending who knew what came next and told you. You trusted the structure because the structure had never failed.
A physician who can see that there are 40 physician-owned infectious disease groups within 50 miles walks into a contract negotiation with completely different leverage than one who assumes the hospital is the only option. Non-compete radius, buy-in terms, tail coverage, all of it becomes more negotiable once you actually know what is around you. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.

About this directory and the Mississippi infectious disease market
PGY-Final-Year is the first time the path is not drawn for you.
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.
What this directory does is hand you the page you were missing. Every physician-owned infectious disease group in Mississippi, in one place, so the first contract you sign is not the only contract you ever saw.
What other resources point to in Mississippi
This directory covers 16 independently operated infectious disease practices in Mississippi. The data comes from two sources: the NPPES NPI Registry (the federal provider database maintained by CMS) and DataForSEO business listings for contact details and descriptions. I've excluded every practice that doesn't qualify as physician-owned. That means hospital-employed positions, academic roles, and corporate medical groups are filtered out. What remains is 23 practices across 4 cities.
The distinction between physician-owned and corporate-owned isn't just a label. It determines how a practice makes decisions about staffing, compensation, patient volume, and reinvestment. This directory exists because no other resource separates physician-owned infectious disease practices in Mississippi from everything else. Every listing has an active NPI, is independently operated, and represents a real opportunity where a physician sets the clinical direction. Not an MBA. Not an investor. A doctor.

Frequently asked questions about infectious disease in Mississippi
How many Infectious Disease private practices are in Mississippi?
There are 16 physician-owned infectious disease private practices in Mississippi, 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 Mississippi Infectious Disease Practice
Mississippi's only physician-owned infectious disease practice in this directory is Hattiesburg Clinic - Infectious Disease in Hattiesburg.
What is an NPPES-verified 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 Mississippi use?
Private ID practices in Mississippi 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
Tail Insurance (Extended Reporting Endorsement)
A malpractice coverage add-on that pays for claims filed after a claims-made policy ends, for incidents that occurred while the policy was active. Tail premiums typically run 1.5 to 2 times the annual malpractice premium and are paid as a one-time lump sum at departure. Occurrence-based policies do not require a tail.
RVU (Relative Value Unit)
A standardized measure of physician productivity used by Medicare and most commercial payers to determine reimbursement. Each CPT code carries a work RVU, practice expense RVU, and malpractice RVU. Many physician contracts tie compensation to RVU production thresholds, with bonuses above a defined baseline.
Compensation Formula
The contractual method used to calculate physician pay. Common models include guaranteed salary, eat-what-you-kill (collections-based), salary plus production bonus (RVU or collections above a threshold), and equal-share partnership distributions. The formula directly affects income stability, upside potential, and alignment with practice goals.
Partnership Buy-In
The purchase of an ownership stake in a physician practice entity, typically offered after an associate track of 2 to 5 years. The buy-in price is calculated using business valuation, a multiple of earnings, or a formula tied to practice receivables. True equity buy-ins include voting rights and profit distributions.
Without-Cause Termination
A contract clause that allows either party to end the employment agreement without stating a reason, typically with 60 to 120 days written notice. The notice period, post-termination obligations (non-compete activation, tail insurance responsibility), and severance terms are negotiable. Shorter notice periods favor the employer.
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.
