DENIAL DRAG. Chronic and relapsing. No response to follow-up.

Indicated action: interrupt the cycle before it sets in.

SMCG President & CEO Justin Sullivan will be attending the ASCRS Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., April 10-12.

If you're attending and would like to sit down to discuss what's happening in your ophthalmology practice operations or revenue cycle, please reach out to book a time.

We've spent 25 years inside healthcare practices, not advising from conference rooms.

That means we know which operational changes actually stick, which ones waste time, and how to get staff buy-in for new processes.

When you need an assessment that finds real problems or interim support to bridge a transition, we show up ready to work.

High Medicaid mix and low reimbursement rates put constant pressure on pediatric practice finances. Add vaccine cost management and prior auth battles, and your margins can disappear fast.

Sullivan Management & Consulting Group focuses on pediatric practice management built for these realities. We help practices optimize revenue cycles and control costs without compromising patient care.

Last week a dermatologist showed us their schedule: patient appointments until 5pm, then three hours of credentialing paperwork and billing reviews. This is what "successful" looks like now?

The administrative creep in dermatology practices is real. Marketing decisions, staff drama, prior auth battles - all stealing time from actual patient care. Don't just accept this as the cost of doing business.

Sullivan Management & Consulting Group provides dermatology practice management consulting that allows dermatologists to reclaim invaluable time. We handle the business operations so you and your team can get back to treating patients instead of wrestling with spreadsheets at 8pm.

Trying to manage cardiology practice operations while seeing patients?

That's like reading an echo during a treadmill test - technically possible, but missing the point.

The reality: Cardiology practices lose significant revenue to billing inefficiencies alone. Add staff turnover, prior auth battles, and marketing gaps, and physicians spend more time on paperwork than procedures.

Sullivan Management & Consulting Group provides cardiology practice solutions that handle the business complexity so you can focus on cardiac care. Our approach has helped practices across the US dramatically reduce AR days and improve patient satisfaction scores.

Let us handle the business. You handle the hearts.

Every medical office has a folder that might as well be labeled “Denials Pending.” Claims sit there for weeks, sometimes months, while revenue slows and patients keep arriving.

That’s where we come in. At Sullivan Management and Consulting Group, hospital revenue cycle consulting isn’t about piling more work on staff. It’s about pulling those claims out of limbo and moving money back where it belongs.

Stop letting denied claims gather dust. See what billing looks like when the process actually works:

Are you still asking patients, “How does that feel?”

Other clinics are using standardized assessments, functional movement screens, and patient-reported outcome measures. Instincts have their place, but insurers and referral sources respond to data.

Treating without measurement is like driving blindfolded. You might get somewhere, but you can’t prove how or why. Our physical therapy consulting team helps practices put systems in place that turn patient feedback into clear progress reports that payers approve and referral sources respect.

Stop guessing, start proving.
