Care
Most physicians and hospitals
start with a simple mission, to provide excellent care to
patients. But they find they have to pursue that mission in a
world that is increasingly complex, regulated, bureaucratic,
financially risky and generally frustrating. It’s often not
enough for a physician to have a deep fund of knowledge and refined
skills, or for a hospital to have a skilled and motivated staff,
effective management systems and modern facilities. They also need
knowledgeable, sophisticated, business-minded legal and compliance
advice. Bill Stempel has worked with physician practices,
hospitals, researchers and others in the field of health care on
day-to-day operations as well as strategic matters, including among
other things:
• Practice

• Hospital
services restructuring

facing health care providers, and can help find practical and
cost-effective ways to meet them.
