Overview

The post-acute/long-term care industry is being challenged by the pressures of an aging population, more stringent governmental oversight, and cuts in government reimbursement.

The firm works with all segments of the post-acute and long-term care industry, including sub-acute, skilled nursing, assisted living, home health, rehabilitation, infusion, and hospice.
