The complexity of the healthcare industry cannot be overstated. Regulatory and compliance pressure is mounting, new investors are entering the market, and costs are skyrocketing—not to mention artificial intelligence (AI) making its way toward center stage. In such a unique and nuanced industry, a generalist approach to healthcare business consulting won’t cut it. Organizations looking for a strategic partner require and deserve personalized guidance from healthcare consultants with deep expertise. Best-in-class support comes from more than just skill, but from a singular, razor-sharp focus.
VMG Health was founded on the wisdom that healthcare isn’t an industry to only dabble in. For 30 years, our exclusive focus on healthcare has earned us a depth of expertise and experience that continues to evolve with the industry itself.
Through market shifts, regulatory changes, and evolving business needs, our commitment to delivering exceptional solutions and support remains constant.
Expertise That Runs Deep
Even as everything around us has changed, VMG Health has remained dedicated to growing with the healthcare industry, not apart from it. Our team lives and breathes healthcare, natives to its language and pioneers in its transformation. Healthcare is an expansive field that directly impacts many facets of patient lives—from behavioral health to medical aesthetics, from cancer care to pharmacy services, from hospice to telehealth, and beyond. Our commitment to meeting the healthcare industry’s unique needs has never wavered; we rise to every challenge with a tailored solution.
Our vast array of services span valuation, strategy, compliance, operational efficiency, and more, positioning us to address the full spectrum of needs within the healthcare industry. Our specialization in healthcare means every analysis, recommendation, and solution is grounded in a deep understanding of the industry’s complexities, guaranteeing more accurate insights, stronger strategies, and optimal outcomes for our clients.
Regulatory Knowledge That Keeps Clients Ahead
With regulations tightening and changing so quickly, it takes an industry titan with an encyclopedic knowledge of mandates like Stark Law, Anti-Kickback Statute, and guidelines and rules from the Centers of Medicare & Medicaid Services. Partnering with a deeply specialized firm dramatically reduces risk for noncompliance by ensuring every decision is built on industry best practices and current regulations, with precise and defensible guidance tailored to the complex, specialty-specific realities of healthcare.
For example, healthcare real estate requires a deep understanding of how fair market value, space utilization, and regulatory limitations intersect. A generalist firm might focus solely on square footage and rent. However, VMG Health’s healthcare consultants recognize how physician leasing arrangements, Stark Law, and operational flow culminate to influence value and compliance.
In a feasibility study for a health system’s ASC strategy, our Real Estate and Capital Assets teams evaluated potential sites and the downstream impact on hospital volume, rent economics, and build-out costs. That level of sector-specific insight empowered health system leadership to move forward with confidence and choose the location with the best return potential.
A Track Record Built on Success
Since 1995, the VMG Health team has completed over 70,000 engagements across our nationwide network of clients—exclusively within the healthcare industry. Our national client base includes some of the country’s largest health systems; small, independent practices; investors and private equity firms; and everything in between.
Our expansive array of services makes us a one-stop shop for our clients’ needs.
Our sole focus on healthcare has enabled us to refine our solutions with proven methodologies that ensure our clients get the results they deserve—the best possible outcomes we can deliver. On top of our consistent results, the deep relationships we forge with our clients have earned us lasting partnerships—some as mature as VMG Health itself—with leading healthcare organizations. Because we pride ourselves as healthcare’s trusted partner in business performance, we never get comfortable. We don’t rely on history and rapport to keep our client relationships going: We push ourselves to keep outperforming—to keep delivering the best client service possible.
