Health Care Services Practice

As the patterns of health care delivery have evolved, Skott/Edwards Consultants has developed the expertise necessary to service this rapidly changing sector. We have worked over our history with traditional Hospital Service Plans, Third-Party Administrators and Administrative Service Organizations, and have built a base of knowledge in the health care delivery field.

As a result of our subsequent involvements with the venture capital community, we were introduced early to emerging specialty care providers and managed services organizations including physician's office mammography services, home health and infusion care services, behavioral health and chemical dependency services, disease-specific services management, speech therapy, special physician organizations, and occupational therapy.

As the health care delivery system and the insurance industry rapidly shifted toward market-driven cost control initiatives and managed care arrangements, and away from traditional indemnity reimbursement structures, our activities evolved to include work with utilization review organizations and with case management, price management, other specialized service management organizations.

Our success in this sector has been a result of our willingness and ability to learn and understand the dynamic realignment of service delivery which has been driven by the market competing demand for minimum cost and maximum quality.  Clients have included:
