JSA Healthcare Corporation is winner of the “Best Family Practice/Internal Medicine Practice Award” in Florida Medical Business’s 15th Annual Medical Business Awards, to be held May 21 at DCOTA (Design Center of the Americas) in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. 

JSA Healthcare Corporation was nominated by the readers of Florida Medical Business newspaper, which comprise the state’s 45,000 physicians, 3,000+ hospital executives and various other health care professionals. Nominations were judged by a stellar panel of industry powerhouses, including: Dr. Carl Lentz, president, Florida Medical Association; J Daniel Miller, Chairman of the Board, Florida Hospital Association; Dr. James Corcoran, Medical Director, First Coast Service Options, Florida Medicare Program; and Dr. Elizabeth Tucker, Chairman, Florida Board of Medicine. 

Gary L. Damkoehler, President and CEO of JSA Healthcare Corporation, credits the physicians, affiliates and all of its employees with winning this award;  “The strong commitment to quality health care by everyone associated with JSA Healthcare Corporation is the reason we have been honored year after year as a leader in the industry.” 

Winners from throughout the state are judged on having demonstrated economic and financial savvy, their impact on the Florida health care industry, improved quality and cost-efficiency of health care delivery and their record of accomplishments in the industry. The fact that JSA Healthcare Corporation was nominated by its peers makes the award even more prestigious and meaningful.

JSA Healthcare Corporation, with over 50 Primary Care physician offices and affiliates throughout five counties in the Tampa Bay area, has been honored with a “Best of” award by Florida Medical Business 5 years in a row. 

For over 15 years, Florida Medical Business has remained the first and only source of health business and managed care news for the state’s physicians, hospital executives, and other medical providers. The paper remains the most reliable, reputable and trusted source of medical business news for Florida’s health-care industry.
