We offer comprehensive day-to-day management for our facilities. With nearly 60 years of combined managing experience in hospitals and ambulatory surgery settings, we become your key asset when you partner with Calisher & Associates (C&A) as your management team. The success of any project starts with careful planning and structuring of the medical and business systems. The facility's success will continue with the ongoing training, assistance and oversight that the staff will receive as part of the C&A management services. Every facility has certain nuances and personalities that make it different from other facilities. We will design custom business solutions including the general business operations, financial operations and marketing program.

The facilities that we have worked with in the past can attest to the following types of results:

ü      Partner distributions after only the 1st quarter of operations

ü      800% Return on Investment (ROI) per partner

ü      Approximate 65% of total debt reduction within the first 3 years of operation

ü      Optimization of billing, collection, and business office functions

ü      Average A/R days in the low to mid 20’s

ü      Only 4% - 5% of total A/R over 90 days aging

The executive team at C&A will be the first to admit that the above-described results are not easy to attain. They represent a mixture of many contributing factors, the most paramount of which is having an extremely well rounded team of senior staff who bring similar and yet different areas of knowledge and experience to the table.
