SERVICES: THE LONG VIEW      GLOBAL REACH      HEALTHCARE      AEC

System and Practice Alignment

Healthcare is challenged by significant and complex integrations of hospital systems and physician practices both in the private practice and academic worlds. Planning "mergers or integration initiatives" and actually carrying out the critical post-merger activities are quite different and are what drives success versus really expensive and demoralizing failure.

Our belief is that the "Soft Stuff Drives the Hard Stuff" — that dealing early with the histories, dynamics, and differences as well as the common interests, visions and possibilities pave the way for the more logical "business case" to prevail. Without our work, even the most compelling financial and legal arguments tend not to move people toward integration.

The Levin Group has, for many years, worked with large Healthcare and individual physician practice groups to smooth the way for transition. Our alliances with other Healthcare consultants provide for a seamless delivery of a wide range of services to the client.
