I am a Houston-based CPA, Certified Valuation Analyst, and Certified Healthcare Business Consultant. I work closely with physicians, medical groups, and other healthcare entities with managed care contracting issues, operational and financial management, strategic planning, and growth strategies. My entire practice is concentrated in the healthcare industry.
I have published numerous articles in national and regional publications and am frequently asked to speak on a variety of health care topics, including capitation, revenue enhancement, and integration strategies. My articles have been published in the Journal of Medical Practice Management, MGMA Journal, Hospital Physician, Texas Medicine Family Practice Journal, Group Practice Journal and the American Bar Association Health Law Journal. I also serve on the Editorial Board for the book Medical Group Practice: Legal and Administrative Guide published by Wolters Kluwer.
Both the American Medical Association and the Southern Medical Association have sponsored my seminars. In addition to my consulting and speaking projects, I have also written Medical Practice Management Handbook for CPAs, originally published by Harcourt Brace. I have also co-authored three other healthcare books published by John Wiley and Sons: Performing an Operational and Strategic Assessment of a Medical Practice, Valuation of a Medical Practice, and Healthcare Financial Operational Manual for IPAs. I have written two books published by the American Medical Association: Negotiation of Managed Care Contracts and Medical Practice Mergers.
