The mission of AHCV is to generate innovative solutions that enhance the ability of healthcare providers to serve patients and the communities in which they live.

As a leader in the healthcare consulting industry, our responsibility is to emphasize public health and patient service to the providers with whom we work. We develop transparent, compliant, and ethical solutions that strengthen the safety-net system while balancing the need to control costs. It is our duty and our obligation to serve our clients by meeting their goals while always focusing on the overall benefit to the community.

VISION | EXPANDING SERVICES AND INCREASING EFFICIENCY FOR HEALTHCARE

Our vision at AHCV is to build a stronger safety-net system for communities across the country.

To accomplish this the AHCV Team uses its full scope of resources to identify innovative solutions for healthcare providers. By continuously innovating the healthcare reimbursement system, we believe that we will expand services and increase efficiency for the healthcare network.

About Us

The AHCV Team is a network of business consultants that includes former high-ranking officials at state Medicaid agencies, lawyers who helped healthcare providers complete complex business transactions, and former high-ranking executives at public and private healthcare institutions. Our cross-functional team of expert consultants has the experience your entity needs to boost revenue, identify solutions to complex risks, and increase financial efficiency.

Specializing in Medicaid, our job is to ensure that healthcare providers receive their fair share of reimbursement for the services they provide. Whether it is designing a patient-centered service expansion initiative or conducting a detailed data-mining analysis, the AHCV Team ensures that your entity is tracking data accurately, efficiently, and, most important, within compliance.

While improving financial efficiency for healthcare providers, AHCV prioritizes expanding healthcare services for patients who typically are underserved. We help providers meet this challenge while balancing the need to manage increasing costs. Consistent with this, AHCV makes charitable donations to organizations that are committed to helping underserved patients.
