Manhattan & Brooklyn

Premier Pediatrics is a thriving 6-provider pediatric practice with locations in Manhattan and Brooklyn, led by Dr. Julie Capiola. With a patient mix that is 98% private insurance and administering over 10,000 vaccines annually, the practice faced significant challenges with vaccine costs, billing complexity, and staff workload that were impacting profitability.

The Challenge

Premier Pediatrics was facing a $1M+ annual cost structure with billing and administrative fees eating into margins. The vaccine program, while essential for patient care, had become a financial burden:

Financial Strain
$1M+ in costs with billing and fees higher than margins
Vaccine waste adding to already high vaccine costs
Unpredictable reimbursements impacting cash flow planning
Operational Burden
High manual labor for vaccine documentation and billing
Overloaded employees burning out on administrative tasks
High turnover costs from staff burnout and training
The Cost Structure Problem

Revenue from vaccine administration was being consumed by costs and fees:

Vaccine Cost
Waste
Admin Fees
Thin Margins

Pediatricians face a major financial challenge: the cost of purchasing vaccines and administering them often exceeds the reimbursement they receive, leaving many practices operating at a loss.

The Solution

Dr. Capiola implemented Canid as a risk-free solution to transform their vaccine program. With no upfront costs or risk to the practice, Canid provided a complete overhaul of vaccine management:
