Experience

BR Healthcare Services was formed by healthcare professionals with over sixty (60) years of combined experience in Healthcare Administration and Finance. The majority of this experience has been actual hands-on operations and financial experience. This gives BRHS a distinct advantage over many firms that provide similar services, but lack the expertise of actual hands-on operations experience. BRHS strongly believes that its success and the success of the client are dependent upon a straightforward and factual evaluation and report. The company’s goal is to provide the client with the tools to succeed and a blueprint to implement change.

The officers of the company have accomplished financial turnarounds on numerous hospitals, performed hundreds of Chargemaster Reviews, evaluated numerous physician practices and rural health clinics, established and/or reviewed multiple Home Health Agencies, and prepared hundreds of Cost Reports. They have also worked to enhance the operations and revenues of numerous hospitals across the country. In addition, staff members have expertise in long term care facilities, free standing diagnostic clinics, surgical centers, physician group and solo practices, coding validation, and CPT/HCPCS coding.

These individuals, along with other members of the staff, have combined their knowledge and expertise to provide a high quality health care management and development company.
