How we can help you 

We work collaboratively with our clients to diagnose core issues, co-design solutions and implement in partnership with leaders.

Health system reform and restructuring

We specialise in guiding both public and private healthcare clients through the complexities of system reform and restructuring. With a focus on sustainable performance, we offer strategic planning, policy development, financial analysis, and operational enhancement. Central to our approach is a consumer-centric perspective, ensuring that the changes we help implement not only boost efficiency and care quality but also enhance patient experiences. We work closely with all stakeholders to co-design and execute impactful improvements that are in line with best-practice and position clients to be future-fit.

Financial sustainability programs

We support clients to achieve their financial goals through optimising revenue and embedding cost and margin control. This support can range from commercial viability assessments of contracts or services, implementing operational improvement projects, or designing and structuring organisation-wide financial sustainability programs.

Organisational structure and operating models

Operating models evolve over time based on an organisation’s size, scale and strategic direction. We support clients to acknowledge where they have been, identify the strengths and areas of tension with their existing models, and design alternatives to better connect strategy and delivery. Our solutions are focused on having immediate impact and ensuring the model is pragmatic and practical.

Strategy and growth

Through understanding the context of a client’s organisation internally along with external market forces, we support clients in the review, development or refinement of their overarching business strategy, enabling the organisation to position themselves for success. Our experience in operational improvement, helps us to support strategy development with translatable outcomes.

The current environment of market disruption creates opportunities for healthcare providers to grow and diversify. Learning from our experience mitigating unviable or uncommercial contracts, we assist our clients to understand, design and assess growth opportunities and partnerships. These opportunities range from assessing new service models or models of care, pricing models for partnerships, or commercial viability of new facilities.

Service improvement

Continuously innovating and quantitively assessing models of care is fundamental to improving patient flow, reducing average-length-of-stay and improving patient outcomes. With a focus on productivity, quality, and operational improvement, we provide program design, review and evaluation, and productivity coaching to improve service quality and therefore patient experience.
