Who We Are
Children's Practicing Pediatricians (CPP) is an independent nonprofit medical association established in 1985 by pediatricians on the medical staff of Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. CPP's purpose is to help practices respond to the changes in health care that are impacting its members. With more than 23 years of operating experience, CPP has become a preeminent "chamber of commerce" advocating for primary care pediatricians.
Our all physician board of private practice physicians has guided CPP to achieve many successes. True to its roots, CPP has continued to advocate for physician members through activities such as a national vaccine group purchase program, CPT coding initiatives and the pursuit of legislative relief from managed care inequities. CPP also supports initiatives of the American Academy of Pediatrics with CPP physicians being active on a number of AAP committees. In addition, two key non-physician CPP management staff are also AAP members in the Section on Administration and Practice Management.
