In the past 20-plus years, we have completed 150 planning engagements for diverse clients including multi-hospital systems, hospitals, academic medical centers and medical groups. Because our strategic and business planning team comprises individuals with executive-level (i.e. Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer/VP of Business Development) experience at hospitals, medical groups and health plans, our efforts are not theoretical but grounded in a first-hand understanding of how actual healthcare organizations work. We also have individuals with advanced degrees in business administration and hospital and health administration. To assist our senior team, we turn to skilled analysts and researchers and statisticians. When needed, we call on a panel of clinical experts, physicians, nurses and other health professionals in multiple fields, including critical care, neonatal intensive care, emergency medicine, and trauma.
