Hospital/Physician Economic Alignment Models
TRG has a wealth of experience in developing economic alignment between hospitals and physicians. Our successful track record includes model development and implementation in the following service areas:

• Cardiac Catheterization and EP Labs
• Endovascular Suites/PV Labs
• Orthopedic and Spine
  
• Full-Scale Heart Hospitals
  
• Dedicated Vascular Centers
  
• Multi-Slice CTA
  
• Cardiac and Vascular Non-Invasive Imaging
• Entire CV Service Line
  
• General Acute Hospital
  
• Clinical Outreach

With each program being unique, multiple models should be evaluated to determine which will be most effective. TRG is the national leader in developing and evaluating a wide spectrum of models designed to achieve long-term success in the areas of efficiencies, quality, and solidification of hospital-physician relationships. Models that TRG has successfully implemented include:

TRG's approach to developing and evaluating economic allignment models includes a three-gate process:

Gate #1 - Business Plan Development

• Existing Services Assessment
• Five Year Financial Impact and Return on Investment
• Market and Competitor Analysis
• Scope of Services Recommendation
• Economic Alignment Model Recommendation
• Major Terms and Governance
• Targeted Physician and Hospital Partners

This phase is intended to provide the hospital and targeted physicians with the necessary information to determine if proceeding with a partnership model is in the program's best interest. Should parties decide to move forward, TRG can provide the following services:

Gate #2 - Implementation

• Offering Document Development Assistance (in collaboration with legal counsel), if applicable
  
• Offering Document Marketing to Targeted Investors
  
• Alignment Model Infrastructure/Operational Development
• Equipment, Space, Staff, Planning and Implementation
  
• Develop Strategies to Expand Services
  
• Provide Regulatory Compliance and Licensing Recommendations
  
• Provide FMV opinions, where applicable

Gate #3 - Management
Many programs seek an "outside", experienced third party to provide day-to-day management of their partnership model. TRG provides this service as an option to clients in order to ensure the successful realization of clinical, financial and patient service goals.
