CareNexus
Branded
St. Louis, MO - RehabCare Group, Inc. announced today
a reorganization of its Phase 2 Consulting division in Salt Lake City, UT, which
it purchased in May 2004. Phase 2 Consulting is a healthcare management
and economic consulting firm, specializing in strategic planning, revenue cycle,
clinical operations and productivity improvement, business planning, market and
financial feasibility studies, and market research and analysis.
CareNexus was a product offering of Phase 2 Consulting’s Operations
Team. As the CareNexus product continued to grow and develop, it
eventually outgrew the business focus of Phase 2 Consulting. Today, the
Operations Team, led by Executive Managing Director Mary Wilkes and assisted by
Senior Consultants Mike Todai and Scott McConnell, branched off from Phase 2
Consulting to form its own business unit, CareNexus, a new division of
RehabCare.
CareNexus will focus its expertise in healthcare financial and
operational improvement, strategic planning, evidence-based practice and case
management. Its approach will be to blend clinical research knowledge with
sound business intelligence tools. CareNexus (the former Phase 2
Operations Team) has proven results in helping its clients achieve better
margins, increased revenue, decreased costs, improved clinical outcome and
resource utilization, while creating higher patient, physician and staff
satisfaction scores.
CareNexus will be located at the RehabCare Group’s
corporate office in St. Louis, MO.
