Testimonials

The team of professionals at The CawleyJohnson Group came on board with us several years ago to enhance many areas of our current program. They partnered with us to improve our quality, increase our regulatory compliance, develop a new unit design and enhance profitability. The CawleyJohnson Group has also shared their expertise with us as we look at expansion of our current mental health service line both inpatient and outpatient.

The CawleyJohnson Group is a highly professional, knowledgeable organization who provided a state-of-the-art strategic plan and management of our services. Their expertise enhanced patient care while improving the bottom line. This enabled us to maintain a commitment to the community to provide behavioral health services while being good stewards of our resources. I highly recommend them.

The CawleyJohnson Group’s knowledge of the behavioral health industry was invaluable to us as we reorganized our behavioral health service line and developed a strategic business plan for this service. As a result of their expertise, our census as well as our margin continues to show positive growth. They have been a valuable resource.

Your FOCUS Operations Review was quite comprehensive. We are using it and have posted three full-time positions for psychiatrists, with one to be designated as Medical Director. The CawleyJohnson Group helped us move toward this solution.

We engaged The CawleyJohnson Group to assist us in the development of our Geriatric Behavioral service line. Their team of experts assisted us with clinical and operational insights that resulted in a successful go live and ongoing service line. CJG also provided us with a sustainable operations model that has resulted in our looking at bed expansion to meet the demand of our community.

Following their comprehensive market and financial analyses, The CawleyJohnson Group provided us with strategic recommendations to foster the continued growth and development of our psychiatric service line. We now have a much clearer direction and plan for our child, adolescent, adult and geriatric programs, as well as more efficient staffing guidelines and physician compensation models.

The CawleyJohnson Group is unique among management companies. As needed, any and all of their company resources come on-site without hesitation. While our initial need in contacting them in 2004 was to upgrade the quality of our clinical service — which they did with an impressive depth of administrative and clinical resources — they continue to exceed my expectations. They have managed volume and payer mix so well that the behavioral health service now represents the highest contribution margin of any service line in the hospital. It has been and continues to be a great partnership.

Our Department of Psychiatry at the Medical College of Georgia was in need of clinical and financial reorganization when we contacted The CawleyJohnson Group. They provided us with a comprehensive assessment and gave us a blueprint for success in our clinical services. Their advice was invaluable and, four years later, we are now financially stable and have experienced unprecedented clinical growth. The CawleyJohnson Group was particularly skilled in their approach to service development alongside academic development. Their service to our Department has been invaluable.
