Join CCI Anesthesia And Experience The Difference
CCI is different from other anesthesia practice management companies in virtually every way. We offer more of what you want out of a career. More transparency. More balance. More independence. And more respect
A Different Kind of Anesthesia Practice
Why are we different? Because CCI is family owned. Since our inception, we have remained a privately-owned group with no private equity investors pressing for wider margins, which means we generously invest in our greatest resource—our providers.
Building a Culture of Transparency and Respect
At CCI, we work diligently to foster a culture of transparency and mutual respect. Here, CRNAs collaborate with a team of healthcare professionals who understand your crucial role in delivering exceptional care.
Our track record and low turnover rates prove we take excellent care of our CRNAs.
We are Committed to CRNAs
CCI works exclusively with anesthesiologists and CRNAs and does not use AAs to fill any of our roles. While we respect the ability of AAs, we choose to work with CRNAs as integral members of our anesthesia care teams due to their ability to work independently in diverse settings ranging from urban to rural areas.
We Value Service
This opportunity is excellent for military veterans. CCI Anesthesia values your service and is committed to contracting with those who have served.
