ABOUT US

9 Mitchell Consulting was founded by Chuck Jackson, as a means to make a greater difference in the lives of people by helping more providers give better services more often. Helping providers reach positive margins and make life simpler for their staff is possible and it becomes obvious how those factors benefit the patients these providers see.

If you operate a healthcare organization, then you know how hard it is to provide great care when you’re dealing with rules, regulations, billing issues, and all kinds of other administrative nightmares.

You’ve likely experienced:

      • Constantly changing rules and standards that don’t make sense or contradict what you’ve been doing.
      • Denied claims that could have been avoided.
      • Inspections and surveys where you don’t understand what is being asked of you.
      • Barriers and hoops to jump through just to do something easy, like increase your bed count or provide a new service.
      • Bad reviews or low satisfaction because patients are frustrated and confused about their health care.
      • Financial losses from errors in pre-authorization or coding.
      • The worst…regulatory fines, penalties, suspensions, revocations that could have been avoided.

    If so, it is likely a result of difficulty with the administrative side of the business, right?

    The healthcare industry is one of the most heavily regulated industries in America, and it’s only getting worse. Providing great care is hard. The administrative side of healthcare makes it harder.

    We can help you make the hard part easier and help your healthcare organization become one of the success stories in one of the hardest industries to succeed. We can help by:

        • Start seeing patients sooner and starting a revenue stream by getting you licensed and accredited, faster and with a better foundational understanding of the rules and standards than doing it yourself.
        • Helping you correct problems to avoid penalties, fines, suspensions, or loss of payer contracts.
        • Improving performance and quality, or limiting risk exposure to avoid any penalties (and making good care easier to provide).
        • Decreasing costs and increasing revenues to maximize profit margin (the right people and processes can keep you profitable).

      If you are struggling with these administrative issues and you aren’t sure how to fix them, we can help you down the path to success.
