healthcare sustainability
& Relief effort
___________________________________
A nonprofit organization founded in response to crises and their impact on healthcare communities nationwide.
“To provide assistance to small healthcare organizations that have been impacted by disasters so that they may rebuild their businesses safely and sustainably.“
Our Story
During the COVID-19 crisis, the founding members of HSRE realized that the vast majority of small healthcare practices are not equipped with the knowledge and tools to navigate such a complex situation.
Most doctors in the U.S. aren’t given the opportunity to learn business management skills in medical school. And they receive little on-the-job training to develop the skills needed to run an effective and sustainable business. Small healthcare organizations often have to be their own supply manager, accountant, IT manager, regulatory compliance expert, marketing professional, billing expert, and more.
To help reduce doctors’ business and administrative burden and stress – so more of their time can be spent on helping patients and improving the health of their community – HSRE was created. HSRE’s purpose is to provide healthcare business consulting, education, and other resources to its nationwide beneficiaries so that their businesses and practices can succeed in the long-term.

OUR SERVICES
After natural disasters occur, whether locally or nationally, small healthcare practices need to reopen their doors to their patients in a safe and financially sound manner. However, many practices struggle to do so, and without guidance and/or resources, reopening may no longer be an option for them. HSRE fills this need for guidance in the community by means of healthcare business consulting and education to all specialties of small healthcare practices and facilities nationwide.
Who qualifies for pro-bono assistance?
Small healthcare practices and facilities nationwide with 30 employees or less that are ready to rebuild their businesses following a regional or national disaster.
CONSULTING AND RESOURCES
HSRE assists small healthcare practices or facilities in understanding and applying for available, qualifying government aid and in building up a plan of action towards long-term recovery and sustainability, which has historically been neglected. Working side-by-side with the disaster-impacted practice, our consultants devise plans to resume business in a safe and sustainable manner that also focuses on the practice’s needs.
HSRE strives to help the healthcare community as much as possible and in addition to consulting services, we provide approved beneficiaries of our pro-bono consulting services access to educational materials and connections to other resources. Studies and recommendations on safe and effective methods for reopening a practice or facility to patients after a disaster as well as on how to optimize clinic operations, financial health, marketing, and other important factors that contribute to the success and sustainability of small healthcare organizations are posted centrally as well.
OUR PROCESS
Tell us your story
When a request for assistance is received
from a small healthcare practice or facility, it will be brought to the HSRE Board of Directors for review.
Dispatch
Once the request is approved, HSRE will
dispatch a consultant to analyze the impact
of COVID-19 on both operations and finances.
Recovery
The consultant will then continue to work with the practice to create and implement a plan to reopen their doors safely and sustainably.
TESTIMONIALS
“I enjoyed working with Amy and Coryn. They assisted in giving me the confidence to do what I already knew was right, they gave me the tools and understanding of how things worked and how to gain control over it myself for the practice. I will be forever grateful for that”
