Welcome To Independant Practitioner Association Foundation

Welcome to IPAF, where our mission is to revolutionize family healthcare by fostering unity and excellence among family practitioners. Born from the visionary minds of leading figures in the Independent Practitioner Associations (IPA), IPAF stands as a testament to collaborative efforts aimed at enhancing the quality of care provided to families across the nation.

As a non-profit organization, IPAF unites the strengths of the three major IPA umbrella groups - the SA Medical Contracted Community (SAMCC), the Alliance of South African Independence Practitioners Associations (ASAIPA), and the SA Medical & Dental Practitioners Network (SP-Net), along with other provider networks like NIMPA. Together, we form a powerful alliance dedicated to addressing the critical issues facing healthcare delivery, including reducing discrepancies in healthcare costs and tackling challenges related to the quality of practice.

Our foundation is built on the principles of Clinical Governance, ensuring that our members have access to the necessary tools and frameworks to deliver healthcare that is not only affordable but also of the highest quality. Join us as we continue to shape the future of family healthcare, guided by our commitment to excellence and united in our efforts to provide the best care for families everywhere.
