HEALTHCARE
Both the private and public healthcare sectors are under extreme
pressure. Health insurance premiums are rising at double-digit
rates, prescription drug costs are skyrocketing, and cost
control measures intended to save the healthcare system have
failed. Bringing new products to market involves a long and
arduous approval process, adding costs and slowing patient
availability. Government programs are facing major changes
with Medicare prescription drug legislation, including new
private health plan structures, provider payment issues, and
funding strains. Federal tax policy and state regulation of
health insurance create market distortions, important factors
contributing to the large number of Americans without health
insurance coverage. It remains to be determined the range
of effects that recent reforms in the health insurance sector
will have on corporate America. Finally, bio-terrorism and
other infrastructure threats have an impact on all healthcare
sectors.
Potomac Strategic Development (“PSD”) will guide you through
complex regulatory, reimbursement, financing, accreditation,
and other public sector issues for hospitals and healthcare
systems, managed care programs, physicians, and other healthcare
providers. Our team also has a tremendous record of success
in healthcare entrepreneurship by identifying suitable opportunities
for partnerships with government. We have achieved significant
success on issues relating to Medicare, Medicaid, healthcare
research, biodefense, and other public healthcare matters.
PSD works closely with our healthcare clients, combining innovative
approaches with a thorough understanding of government programs,
policies, and processes. We are dedicated to finding solutions
for leaders on the cutting edge of the healthcare marketplace,
and those who simply want to provide better quality healthcare.
