Consulting

Your Success Is Our Mission

Customized Design, Personalized Experience

An out-of-the-box consulting solution is about as useful as an out-of-the-box EMR system.

We provide the resources that you would expect from a big corporation with the feel of partnering with a small company.
We meet you where you are: whether you need help building a business case for executive buy-in, human capital to
build your program, or a third-party compliance audit on an established department, we have you covered.

Norwood Value-Based CDI

Nurse-Led. Physician-Sensitive.

Nurse-Led:

We empower the largest, most trusted clinical workforce in healthcare to work at the top of their licensure while upholding all compliance and regulatory guidance.

Physician-Sensitive:

We understand that burnout is real. We acknowledge that physicians and APPs carry most of the administrative burden, but we believe in a more collaborative approach to get the job done.

Coding-Supported:

We foster relationships. Nothing runs smoothly without mutual, collegial trust. We encourage good communication and teamwork to optimize accuracy and efficiency.

Patient-Centered:

We recognize that timely patient care leads to best outcomes, especially in the outpatient setting. The less time you spend in the record, the more time you have with the patient.
