In addition to Dr. Fox's accomplishments as an Obstetrician/Gynecologist, he is the President and CEO of the Patient Physician Network in Plano and Medical Director of the greater than 600 member Plano Physicians Group.


Since 1984, in addition to his medical practice, Dr. Fox has focused on organizing the physician providers at Medical Center of Plano to respond proactively to managed care.

His primary focus over the last eight years has centered on working with physicians, payors and employers to understand the challenges of health care delivery. In working with physicians, Dr. Fox has brought forward the concept of evaluating encounter data to document the “value” of healthcare to patients, payors and employers.

This process, known as clinical integration, offered the opportunity to introduce the concept of healthcare reengineering through assisting physicians to combine quality of care issues with cost, utilization and outcome data to ensure patient accessibility, efficiency, education, promotion of wellness and prevention of disease.

Each physician who is affiliated with the organization has recognized that their future is linked to the successful establishment and ongoing operation of a clinically integrated physician delivery system.

 

Each year, comprehensive studies are completed and analyzed on various disease entities, then presented to the various medical and surgical specialties for review and discussion. From these conferences, clinical efficiencies are realized that positively impact the overall healthcare of the community.

 

In 2003, Dr. Fox and the Patient Physician Network received the Healthcare Quality Hero Award from the DFW Alliance for Healthcare Excellence for significant contributions to the healthcare delivery system in Collin County.
