We provide turnaround and interim management solutions for financially under performing behavioral health operations. These include psychiatric service lines, inpatient units, residential treatment facilities, mental health and substance abuse treatment centers.
A senior consultant comes on-site to function as interim director, evaluate and target problems: quality, management, physician and referral source relations, reimbursement, payer mix and finances, staffing, organizational structure, market and competition, billing, and compliance. Findings of the assessment and recommendations are made and a turnaround plan designed.
Collaborating with the governing body or ownership, the turnaround plan defines objectives, activities, responsibilities, and time frames. The interim director works systematically to implement the plan, correct deficiencies and move the organization forward. We have a track record of improving productivity, rebuilding positive relationships with medical staff, payers, regulators, consumers and advocates.
In the right situation, we will find and facilitate partnerships, management agreements, asset sales, and joint ventures that bring new capital investment to the enterprise.
As operations and finance stabilize, we help recruit and transition a permanent executive to sustain and continue the recovery process.
