A self-paced track for building a healthcare consulting practice serving independent practices, clinics and small provider groups. It covers six stages: what healthcare consultants are actually hired to fix, how a practice makes and loses money, operations and patient flow, the compliance and technology environment, pricing and engagement structure, and finding clients and building the practice.

The focus throughout is the independent and small-group provider, who has real problems, no internal administrative depth, and is chronically underserved by large consulting firms. Healthcare Clinical Institute is independent and issues no certification, credential or license.
