Start a Conversation ## FAQs About Healthcare CPAs and Business Consultants **What should I look for in a healthcare CPA and consulting firm?** Healthcare organizations should look for advisors with deep industry experience and capabilities that extend beyond traditional accounting. The right firm should understand healthcare-specific financial, regulatory, reimbursement, operational, and technology challenges and be able to bring together audit, tax, advisory, transaction, cybersecurity, and consulting expertise as needs change. Just as important, look for experienced professionals who remain actively involved, understand your organization, and provide practical recommendations that can be implemented within your operations. **How is healthcare accounting different from other industries?** Healthcare accounting involves complex reimbursement models, regulatory requirements, and reporting standards that are unique to the industry. Organizations must manage payer mix, government programs, compliance obligations, and operational costs, all of which require specialized expertise beyond general accounting. **When should a healthcare organization work with a consulting firm?** Healthcare organizations often seek outside expertise when regulatory change, reimbursement pressure, growth, transactions, or operational complexity requires specialized knowledge. Leadership teams may also benefit from an outside perspective when evaluating how industry changes could affect strategy. LBMC’s analysis of [**healthcare trends and policy implications**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/healthcare-trends-policy-implications/) provides additional perspective on the forces healthcare leaders should be monitoring. **Can a healthcare consulting firm help improve financial performance?** Yes. Healthcare organizations often engage consultants when reimbursement pressure, rising costs, operational inefficiencies, regulatory changes, or growth create challenges that require specialized expertise. A healthcare consulting firm can help identify where margins are being lost and evaluate opportunities across revenue cycle performance, payer strategy, operating costs, physician compensation, reporting, and organizational structure. Healthcare leaders can also evaluate [**value-based reimbursement and contracting strategies**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/value-based-care-reimbursement/) alongside opportunities to strengthen financial and operational performance. **How do healthcare organizations benefit from transaction advisory services?** Transaction advisory services help healthcare buyers, sellers, and investors evaluate financial performance, earnings quality, reimbursement risk, operational issues, and other factors that can affect a transaction. Healthcare transactions require additional scrutiny because financial results are often closely connected to payer mix, coding, compliance, physician relationships, and regulatory requirements. Our guide to [**10 essential questions for healthcare M&A due diligence**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/ask-these-10-questions/) highlights issues organizations should evaluate, while our analysis of [**private equity in healthcare**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/private-equity-healthcare-providers-audit/) explores broader opportunities and risks. **What cybersecurity and compliance services are important for healthcare organizations?** Healthcare organizations should take a risk-based approach that addresses [HIPAA requirements](https://www.lbmc.com/services/cybersecurity/hipaa-risk-assessment/), [security risk assessments](https://www.lbmc.com/services/cybersecurity/security-risk-assessments/), access controls, incident preparedness, third-party risk, and other vulnerabilities involving protected health information. Depending on the organization, [HITRUST](https://www.lbmc.com/services/cybersecurity/hitrust-assessment/) readiness and additional compliance frameworks may also be appropriate. LBMC helps healthcare organizations evaluate cybersecurity risk, strengthen controls, and prepare for evolving compliance expectations. **How can healthcare organizations respond to reimbursement and payer changes?** Healthcare organizations should regularly evaluate payer policies, reimbursement trends, contract terms, denial patterns, and the financial impact of coverage changes. Even relatively narrow payer policy changes can affect revenue and administrative workflows. LBMC helps providers assess reimbursement issues and determine how changes may affect financial performance. See our analysis of [**UnitedHealthcare’s colonoscopy coverage change**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/unitedhealthcare-colonoscopy-coverage-change/) for an example of how payer policies can create operational and reimbursement considerations. **How should healthcare organizations evaluate physician compensation and management arrangements?** Healthcare organizations should evaluate physician compensation and management arrangements based on fair market value, commercial reasonableness, regulatory requirements, and the specific services being provided. These considerations can become particularly important when structuring physician coverage or management relationships. Healthcare leaders evaluating coverage models should understand the financial and compliance considerations involved in [**setting up on-call arrangements**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/top-three-things-to-consider-when-setting-up-on-call-arrangements/), while organizations using management services should also consider how to determine the [**fair market value of physician practice management fees**](https://www.lbmc.com/blog/fair-market-value-physician-practice-management-fees/). LBMC’s healthcare valuation professionals help organizations evaluate these arrangements using market data, industry experience, and defensible valuation methodologies. **How do I get started with LBMC’s healthcare services?** Start by telling us about your organization, the challenge you’re facing, and what you’re trying to accomplish. LBMC will connect you with the appropriate healthcare specialists to discuss your needs and determine the right next steps. **Talk to a healthcare advisor.** ### Local Expertise, Wherever You Are With offices in [Chattanooga](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/chattanooga/), [Memphis](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/memphis/), [Louisville](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/louisville/), [Nashville](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/nashville/), [Knoxville](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/knoxville/), [Charlotte](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/charlotte/), and [Philadelphia](https://www.lbmc.com/locations/philadelphia/) plus remote offices, LBMC partners with businesses across the region and beyond.
