Anyone can collect the information necessary to do an assessment, if they understand what to collect. But only individuals who know what to do with the information, understanding what it is telling them, then translating that information into a plan and understanding how to implement that plan, will consistently be successful in growing a business or association. Yes, it takes knowledge and experience, but it also takes talent.

    To get to a specific place or location, you have to know where you want to end up. Business development is no different. You have to have a vision and mission as to where you want your organization to go. Then you have to have a roadmap, or strategic plan, as to how to get to your desired location from where you are starting from. And yet all the planning in the world will not get you to your desired location without proper implementation, project management.

    TCGA has the group of Associates that have the knowledge, experience and talent to help your organization determine its focused vision/mission, develop strategies on how to get there, and be able to operationalize the strategic plan. Independently our resumes demonstrate that. Collectively, we are a formidable, synergistic team.

TCGA’s Principle worked with the NATA as National Manager of Strategic Business Development, assisting athletic trainers for over 4 years with billing, coding, reimbursement and business strategy issues.  He developed and implemented the three (3) year Third Party Reimbursement Pilot that has demonstrated success in attaining recognition and reimbursement for services provided and billed directly by athletic trainers. TCGA has over 35 years’ experience in payor contract negotiation and billing physical medicine and rehabilitation services in numerous health care settings.  TCGA has the experience, resources and problem solving strengths to understand the issues facing ATs in third party reimbursement, develop a third party reimbursement strategy specific to the client and project management of the implementation of the strategy if so called on. Third party reimbursement services and areas we work in are:

    • Business Assessment
    • Project Management
    • Policies and Procedures development
    • Work in all Sport Medicine Areas:
      • Clinical practices;
      • Health systems;
      • Individual states;

    [/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”Healthcare Billing in University Athletics” open_toggle_text_color=”#ffffff” open_toggle_background_color=”#01006d” closed_toggle_text_color=”#ffffff” closed_toggle_background_color=”#01006d” _builder_version=”3.17.2″ body_text_color=”#ffffff” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”right” animation_delay=”400ms” animation_intensity_slide=”18%” custom_margin=”||5px”]Currently there are a number of college and university athletics programs investigating billing for medically necessary care provided in their sports medicine, athletic training facilities. This is a unique setting in the billing for medical and physical medicine services because it is adding to the complexities of medical billing, the complexity of navigating through a University’s policies and culture. Questions come up like:

    • Do we follow HIPPA or FERPA regulations?
    • Under what provider number do we bill?
    • Where does the revenue flow once collected?
    • Who negotiates contracts with insurance carriers?
    • What system do we use to track care, and bill insurance with?
    • What guidelines do we use to bill student athletes insurance – when do we bill, for what injury?
    • Is the return on investment high enough to justify the resources and change in culture this will cause?

    TCGA’s Principle and Partners have experience in this unique environment and in this type of healthcare billing. This experience provides for professional resources and problem solving strengths to work with colleges and universities to answer the above questions, and determine the return on investment and financial feasibility. If the answers meet administration goals and expectations, then TCGA can assist in the creation of a process for the university to walk through the complexities of medical coding/billing, and if desired, assist in implementation through project management. TCGA is not in business to sell a proprietary process, methodology or particular system. We bring our experience, expertise and resources to find the right solution for your organization.

    There are times in the life of a company or organization that interim or part-time leadership is needed. There can be many reasons for this:

    1. An executive leader has left abruptly, and there is a need for interim leadership while the recruiting/search process takes place to fill the position permanently.
    2. The company or association is growing rapidly and is in need of specific leadership or operational leadership to fill a gap while the company grows to point of being able to hire full time.
    3. An entrepreneur needs specific leadership skills to balance their own, allowing the company to continue on a growth curve.
    4. Need for executive talent to lead a specific project, and more cost effective to contract than to hire.

    We have sat in your chair as a manager, executive and owner. Whether your business is a start-up or large corporation, for-profit or non-profit, we have experience in successful leadership. TCGA, with multiple successful business associates, have resources to provide the type of interim or contract leadership that your company or association needs.
