Engagement models
Healthcare organizations are not interchangeable. Neither are our engagements. Every proposal is custom-scoped after a free operational assessment. No surprises, no generic packages.
Ongoing strategic and operational support with contracted weekly hours, weekly billing review, and defined deliverables.
The retainer partnership model is designed for organizations that need sustained, high-quality consulting support over multiple months. You contract a defined number of weekly hours with a minimum term of three months, and HealthRush delivers consistent, measurable work against agreed objectives throughout the engagement.
This model works because it creates accountability on both sides. We know exactly what we are delivering each week, and you know exactly what you are paying for, down to the task level, documented in your weekly itemized billing report.
Rural hospitals, outpatient systems, and FQHCs that need sustained operational improvement across revenue cycle, compliance, or workflow, and want a consulting partner who stays until the numbers move.
A defined scope, specific deliverables, and a clear end date. Best for organizations with a targeted problem that needs expert resolution.
Project-based engagements are scoped around a specific challenge with clear deliverables and a defined completion point. Examples include a revenue cycle audit, an EMR implementation oversight engagement, a compliance gap assessment, or a workflow redesign for a specific department or service line.
The scope is locked in writing before the engagement begins. Any change to scope is agreed and documented before we proceed. You will never receive an invoice that does not match what was contracted.
Organizations with a specific, bounded problem that needs expert resolution without a long-term engagement commitment. Also common as a first engagement that leads to a retainer relationship.
HealthRush expertise embedded as a fractional operational or revenue cycle leader, without the cost of a full-time executive hire.
Rural healthcare organizations often need experienced operational or revenue cycle leadership that they cannot afford to hire full-time. Fractional leadership gives you a senior HealthRush consultant functioning in a leadership capacity, attending leadership meetings, driving strategy, managing vendor relationships, and reporting directly to your CEO or board, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.
This model is particularly effective for organizations in transition: launching a new service line, navigating a compliance challenge, recovering from a leadership departure, or executing a financial turnaround under board pressure.
Rural hospitals and clinics that need experienced operational leadership on a part-time basis, particularly during transitions, turnarounds, or periods of strategic change.
A structured assessment of your organization's compliance posture with a documented risk report and remediation roadmap.
Rural healthcare organizations face a complex and evolving compliance landscape, HIPAA, CMS conditions of participation, payer audit risk, and state-specific requirements. Many organizations discover compliance gaps only when they are already under scrutiny. A HealthRush compliance assessment is a proactive, structured review that identifies your risk before it becomes a problem.
The assessment results in a written report that documents every identified gap, the associated risk level, and a prioritized remediation roadmap with estimated timelines. You can implement the roadmap yourself or engage HealthRush to support remediation.
Organizations preparing for a payer audit, CMS survey, or accreditation review, or those who simply have not had a formal compliance review in the past 12 to 18 months.
Structured training programs for clinical, administrative, and billing staff, delivered on-site or remotely with documented competency outcomes.
Staff performance is directly connected to organizational performance. Billing errors, documentation gaps, workflow inefficiencies, and compliance failures almost always trace back to training deficits, not staff capability problems. HealthRush training programs are built around your specific workflows, your payer mix, and your staff's actual knowledge gaps.
Every training program includes pre-training assessment, structured curriculum delivery, and post-training competency evaluation so you have documented evidence of improvement, not just attendance records.
Organizations experiencing high turnover, recent EMR transitions, documentation-related claim denials, or compliance training deficits ahead of an audit or survey.
Custom proposals
We do not send rate cards. We send proposals, scoped specifically to your organization after a 30-minute conversation where we learn your situation, your goals, and your constraints.
