Results-Driven Organizational Consulting for Medical Practices and Medical Centers

Never before has the healthcare field changed as fast as it's changing today.

If your bottom line has been sinking, perhaps it's time to reach out for help. The American Academy's customized organizational consulting services can show you how other medical practices are thriving today by adapting to the new rules. And we can help you plot your own path for a rewarding and profitable future.

Call us to find out more, and to get started.

The consultations of the American Academy offer exceptional and in-depth experience from working throughout the nation with an array of clients, including hospitals and medical centers, private practice and clinics, managed care companies, national medical associations and many more. We can customize an in-depth consulting program for you, with the following topics as a starting point:

Physician Recruitment and Retention

Hospitals and clinics across the nation have sent thousands of professionals to our training programs—and many more have hired us directly—to dramatically improve their ability to recruit top physicians faster and more cost-effectively. We pioneered the Certified Staff Medical Recruiter program and quite literally wrote the book on physician recruitment.

Whether you’re building a recruitment program from scratch, upgrading an existing one, or need an expert embedded with your organization, we deliver proven results. Just as important, we focus on physician retention—because recruitment success matters only if physicians stay, perform at a high level, and remain engaged.

Physician Relations, Retention, and Productivity

Highly productive and satisfied physicians are essential to organizational success. Our consultants help you track, manage, and improve physician performance at the individual, group, and departmental levels. Using advanced tools and industry-tested strategies, we improve productivity, job satisfaction, and long-term retention while protecting organizational culture and morale.

Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners

The demand for PAs, NPs, and other non-physician providers continues to rise nationwide. Our experts help you strategically integrate these professionals by identifying optimal roles aligned with payer mix, market demand, and revenue goals. Services include compensation benchmarking, staffing models, pay grade development, and rapid recruitment support—whether for private practices or large medical centers.

Physician Manpower Planning

With experience across markets nationwide, we provide objective, data-driven manpower plans to determine how many physicians you need, in which specialties, where they should practice, and when. Some plans include in-depth market research and provider interviews; others are streamlined for faster decision-making. Many clients rely on us for third-party analysis to support board presentations or internal alignment.

New Practice Start-Up and Expansion

From adding one provider to launching multiple new practices, we help you implement each phase efficiently and successfully. Our consultants can be on-site to assist with office setup, accounting systems, medical records platforms, staffing, fee schedules, and patient marketing—providing as much hands-on support as you need to launch confidently.

Practice Management Optimization

There is always room for improvement. We work with practices across specialties to optimize operations, staffing, managed care strategies, technology systems, and financial performance. While many organizations seek guidance on reimbursement realignment and regulatory changes, we also address fundamental operational challenges. Our nationally recognized training programs—including Practice Management Boot Camp and Practice Management Intensive Training—are available on-site or at our national events, with multiple certification options for physicians and administrators.

Physician Compensation Consulting

Compensation changes are complex and often sensitive. Our role is to serve as an objective sounding board, carefully evaluating proposed compensation models against revenue performance, productivity benchmarks, and organizational goals. We provide data-driven analysis and support to help leadership implement necessary changes thoughtfully, transparently, and effectively.

Signs Your Practice Could Benefit From Organizational Consulting

Many organizations experience underlying inefficiencies without recognizing their root causes. Common warning signs include:

• Declining patient satisfaction
• High staff or provider turnover
• Communication breakdowns between teams
• Inefficient workflows and scheduling
• Revenue cycle management challenges
• Difficulty recruiting qualified physicians
• Rising operational costs
• Challenges implementing new technologies

If these issues sound familiar, targeted organizational consulting can help correct course and deliver lasting improvements.
