LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- As a leader in the healthcare industry, you have a lot of choices to make. Now there's a new partner you can trust to help you make the right ones.

National healthcare mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisory firm Stoneridge Partners has joined forces with recognized industry executive and thought-leader Tom Lillis to launch the Stoneridge Strategic Consulting Group, a new resource for healthcare business planning. Wondering if your company should enter a new market? Want to best position your business for a future sale? Thinking about adding a new service line? The team at Stoneridge Strategic Consulting Group will use their decades of industry experience to design a roadmap for your business to follow.

"This a natural progression for Stoneridge," said Stoneridge Partners President and CEO Rich Tinsley. "After closing thousands of successful transactions, we have the expertise and contacts to help healthcare businesses take the next step.

Lillis joins Stoneridge after a 25-year consulting career, most recently as Principal-Senior Vice President at McBee Associates, Inc. He has also held leadership roles with KPMG Consulting, Alliente, The Hackett Group and Symantec Corporation.

"When you're a healthcare executive, so much of your time is consumed with running day-to-day operations. You rarely get the time to step back and take a look at the overall picture," said Lillis. "The non-acute environment today is increasingly challenging, with regulatory and reimbursement changes, staffing and technology limits, and growing patient populations. There are also opportunities emerging that didn't exist five or ten years ago. Stoneridge Strategic Consulting can help clients navigate through these issues and options, to jointly chart a path to higher patient satisfaction and organization success."
