Springfield Clinic is the second largest, private multi-specialty clinic in Illinois. The medical staff includes 230 physicians and physician extenders (providers) and is expected to increase to 300 providers by 2009.

The clinic is located in central Illinois and currently includes 24 locations across eleven counties. Administrator and CIO, James Hewitt, expects the practice to continue growing an average of ten physicians a year via organic and acquisition growth. “We are seeing smaller practices desire to merge into our clinic infrastructure. We expect that trend to continue,” said Hewitt.
