Most tribal health consultants have never run a clinic. We do. Our consulting draws directly from what we are learning in Los Angeles, Northern California, and every other engagement we take. You get advice from the operator's seat, not the advisor's.
Our feasibility studies use the same assumptions we apply to our own clinics. If a number does not pencil for us, we will not pretend it pencils for you.
We know 638, ISDEAA, IHCIA, and the current CMS rule sets cold. We also know where the gaps are and where tribal sovereignty gives you options others will not surface.
We ship implementation plans, staffing models, RCM specs, and compliance frameworks your team can run. Not 80-slide strategy decks that sit on a shared drive.
Tribal self-determination, federal funding pathways, rural hospital strategy.
We help tribes move into 638 self-determination contracting, stand up FQHC and FQHC Look-Alike programs, and evaluate Critical Access Hospital strategies. Currently executing a 638 transition for a tribal partner in 2026.

Strategic options, pathway analysis, financial frameworks, decision gates.
Implementation artifacts, staffing models, policy suites, training materials.
