Walker-Phillips Healthcare Consulting

We are a healthcare consulting firm specializing in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement and related services to long-term care facilities in Virginia, North Carolina, and many other states. Our team also prepares a large number of Hospice and Home Health Medicare cost reports, and Virginia Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) Medicaid cost reports each year. We serve as advisors to our clients in regulatory interpretation and completion, review and submission of cost reports, and Medicaid Case-Mix Index (CMI) management services. We stay informed and advise our clients on how changes in the long-term care regulatory and business environment will impact their reimbursement.

Our unique partnership approach enables healthcare providers to anticipate potential changes in reimbursement rates by proactively monitoring operational changes throughout the year, eliminating rate-setting surprises. We understand the importance that cost reporting and reimbursement holds for healthcare entities and offer a wide variety of services to help you reach your goals.
