Testimonials
Senior Executives
Greentree believes that its qualifications are best presented by its performance. Here is what senior executives have to say.
Kurt Stuenkel, President & CEO, Floyd Medical Center, Rome, Georgia:
“Our LTACH has always enjoyed quality care; however, it was failing financially. In the capacity of part-time CEO, Mark Fall (President of Greentree Healthcare Partners, LLC) directed a dramatic turn-around of the operation. He fully understands the essentials of driving revenues. Under his direction, both census and case mix index rose significantly. The result was a highly profitable LTACH which continued to maintain superior quality indicators and superior satisfaction scores. His work greatly surpassed our expectations.”
Greg Thompsen, CEO, Columbus Specialty Hospital, Columbus, Georgia:
“Our LTACH enjoyed a 4 year working relationship with the key members of Greentree Healthcare Partners. They are highly knowledgeable of LTACH reimbursement and the business as a whole.
Most recently they performed the CFO/Controllership function for our hospital. In the past they have provided regulatory research, CON assistance and coached us with respect to marketing and census development techniques.
We are a very satisfied client.”
Victoria Webster, VP/COO, CareLink of Jackson, Jackson, Michigan:
“We selected Greentree because of their breadth of knowledge of the LTACH industry. What we soon realized was that the depth of their financial and operational expertise far exceeded our expectations, resulting in measurable improvement very early in the engagement. Greentree has helped us better understand the nuances of the reimbursement systems and their broad reaching effects on our management strategies and systems. They have brought a focus of attention and energy to our organization that has been extremely helpful. The result – a significant improvement in net revenues and net income while maintaining our high level of patient quality and satisfaction.”
Susan Stovall, CEO, The Specialty Hospital, Rome, Georgia:
“Greentree’s financial and operational expertise was key to the turn around of The Specialty Hospital. They helped the team members understand the complexities of the reimbursement system and brought greater focus to the marketing function. Not only did our hospital become financially successful, our team members grew greater confidence and pride from our success.”
Equally important is what LTACH management teams have to say. These are the comments of middle managers whom we have worked hand-in-hand with in previous engagements.
Laura Murley, Rehab., & QI Coordinator, The Specialty Hospital, Rome, Georgia:
“Our team fully realized the difficulties we faced. Rumors of our closure had circulated for years. We needed to turn-around our financial situation quickly. Greentree brought the expertise, focus and leadership necessary for our team to accomplish great financial success. We did so while accomplishing the greatest goal of all, providing superior quality care to our patients.”
Sandra Meyer, Mgr. of Resp. Therapy, Rehab and Diagnostic Services, CareLink of Jackson, Jackson, Michigan:
“Our LTACH had been operating for 4 years before we engaged Greentree to assist us.
They greatly increased our knowledge of the financial implications of our clinical decisions. As a result, we department heads are better able to integrate both financial and clinical considerations when making operational decisions.”
Christine Donadio, Case Mgr., The Specialty Hospital, Rome, Georgia:
“Greentree brought a focus of attention to the revenue drivers of the operation. Their pursuit of increased commercial rates and building of patient census coupled with the provision of tools to better manage patient selection, length of stay, etc. contributed greatly to our success. We found our way out of the woods due to their expertise and leadership.”
Lisa Thorne, Office Manager, Columbus Specialty Hospital, Columbus, Georgia:
“Members of Greentree Healthcare Partners provided CFO/Controllership services to our hospital for several years. They are highly knowledgeable of the complexities in the post-acute reimbursement systems and gave us “straight answers” to complicated questions. Their hard work and dedication to establish our hospital’s financial function built the strong foundation which we continue to utilize today.”
Ashley Smith, H.R. Coordinator, The Specialty Hospital, Rome, Georgia:
“Before the turn-around, our employees were highly frustrated. The rumors of demise were rampant throughout the system. We began to perceive ourselves as “losers”. From the beginning of their involvement, Greentree emphasized that we were “winners”. Our team was well credentialed and the care we provided was good. Greentree focused our team on the critical details of this complex business. Not only did we achieve financial success, our employees began believing in themselves again.”
