About ACA

Beginning their careers as emergency physicians, Nino DiIullo, MD,
MBA and Lewis Wm. Coppel, Jr. MD, practiced in many emergency rooms
throughout the United States as part of a nationwide management
firm. After many years of delivering emergency medicine, they turned
their sights to the ambulatory arena. In the 1980's they opened
their first urgent care center, calling Columbus, Ohio home. Understanding
that a successful practice requires knowledge of many other areas
aside from medicine, they focused their attention on developing
the back office support structure.
After years of success, the physicians partnered with a larger health
system to open three more urgent care centers. In the early years,
Ambulatory Care Affiliates (ACA) was established as that support
structure for this Columbus-based chain of urgent care centers.
The urgent care network continued to grew to a seven facility network,
as did ACA's service offerings.
Today, ACA Medical Management Solutions still provides support to
those seven original urgent care facilities, but has fueled expansion
by taking on additional projects throughout the United States. Clients
range from physician owned family practice offices to large hospital
systems. Although ACA has transitioned from a small physician back
office support area, to a systematic practice management firm, the
core objective of the business is unwavering. ACA Medical Management
Solution remains dedicated to partnering with various medical practices
to deliver business solutions that enhance financial and operational
structures throughout.
