Psychological Health Center Business Plan


Psychological Health Center Business Plan


Amesbury Psychological Center is a multi-disciplinary behavioral health care facility that offers substance abuse and mental health services to the Merrimack Valley. Our goal is to offer quality, cost-effective treatment. Our mission is to establish, promote, sustain and improve customer relationships with clients, Anna Jaques Hospital and payors as well our staff, associates, employees, and community.

The market for behavioral health services is healthy, as will be shown by the growth the existing Center has experienced during the past two and a half years. Massachusetts recently passed legislation regarding mental health parity, which will go into effect in month 1. This bill requires that insurance companies offer benefits for biologically-based behavioral health disorders in the same way as for other health disorders. This will ensure that the expected growth is sustained. Currently, approximately four calls per day are made to the Outpatient Psychiatric Center by patients wishing to be referred to other providers.

The key to success for this turnkey project includes:

  1. Ability to transfer existing hospital behavioral healthcare contracts to the Center
  2. Rapid credentialing of clinicians
  3. Obtaining initial working capital.
  4. You can contract with your clinicians for reasonable rates.
  5. Developing and implementing a successful billing and collection system.
  6. Listening to your customers and meeting their needs.
  7. Obtaining a medicaid provider number.

The business plan gives us a road map to sustain growth, improve revenue collections, and increase our bottom line to generate a profit.

    The Market

    The housing industry has experienced a rapid pace over several years. 1998 saw the completion of 886,000 single-family homes built on-site. It was an all-time record. This represented a 10% increase over the 804,000 homes that were sold in 1997 and an 8.1% increase from the 1977 record of 819,000 homes. Of the $125,000,000 in industry revenue, $48 million was generated by single-family housing. This provides a fantastic opportunity to expand Concrete Installation and gain significant market shares in its primary target segment. The company will also be focusing less on the residential construction and heavy construction industries, which are both very strong at the moment.

    The company is aiming to quickly build marketing alliances, and sell its services to residential and business builders. Concrete Installation is aiming to profit from its alliances with industry leaders by securing contracts for city, county and federal governments.
