The rapid evolution of the health care field presents a variety of tough challenges. Improving patient care and safety while
coping with ever-rising costs is difficult enough. But today’s health care leaders must also deal with complicated and fast-
changing reimbursement systems, cumbersome tax codes and unpredictable revenue cycles—all while managing disparate
risks and pursuing capital for investments in everything from information technology to advanced medical equipment.
What’s more, industry executives must adapt to an array
of complex changes mandated by recent health care
reform legislation.

resources, we are uniquely qualified to help. We’re here
to address your distinct needs. We’re here to provide
customized solutions to help you succeed, now and
in the long term. And we’re here to earn your trust.
Because when you trust the advice you’re getting,
you’ll have greater confidence that your next move
is the right move.
Navigate the complexities with advice you can trust.
“The audit team’s knowledge of accounting standards and issues in the health care industry is excellent. They worked with our management and audit compliance committee in a manner that was both understandable and nonconfrontational.”

We’re so committed to understanding the needs of businesses like yours, we have teams of experienced
advisers devoted solely to the health care industry.
Experience dedicated service.
In such a fast-moving field, it’s not enough to know what’s worked in the past. You also need to anticipate change.
By maintaining long-standing relationships with local, state and federal regulatory agencies and remaining intimately
involved with key industry associations (including HFMA, HIMSS, AHA, NRHA, AAHAM and ACHE), we’re able to keep up to the
minute on trends, issues, rules and regulations that may affect our health care clients.
In addition, we regularly conduct surveys and benchmarking studies, oftentimes partnering with national organizations. These
thought-leadership initiatives enable us to remain fully abreast of best practices and emerging concerns.
We believe each of our clients deserves a carefully tailored,
custom-fit approach. So we work diligently to gain a
thorough understanding of your unique situation—your
challenges, opportunities and resources. Only then will we
recommend a course of action, one specifically developed
to address your particular needs.
You may turn to us for an integrated mix of services that are
seamlessly coordinated to achieve a variety of goals. Other
times you may choose to retain us for our knowledge in a
single specialty. When circumstances warrant, we’ll team
up with professionals from other practice areas to offer
fresh, imaginative perspectives. We’ll even partner with
experts outside our organization—if that’s what it takes to
meet your needs.
Understanding the value of forward thinking.
One size fits all doesn’t fit you.
“If you’re looking for results, McGladrey is the top health care adviser, bar none. Unlike other firms we’ve worked with, McGladrey was able to identify millions in additional Medicare funding—and they’re not even done yet. What’s more, they understand us and openly share methodology so the results can be sustained over time.”
