Sample HHA Business Plan

For the application of licensure with AHCA and certification with Medicare

As Miami Healthcare Accountants specializing in Healthcare Accounting, we prepare custom HHA Business Plan for startup Home Healthcare Agencies or Change of Ownership. Accountants in Miami have been Healthcare Accountants for more than 20 years. We provide a wide range of Healthcare Accounting services to HHA throughout Florida.

AHCA now requires an HHA Business Plan along with the AHCA Proof of Financial Ability to Operate for new HHA’s or change of ownership to be prepared by a CPA. The Healthcare Business Plan requires very specific knowledge of healthcare accounting which our Healthcare Accountants are diligent in keeping up with every new law.

We have prepared a partial sample Healthcare Business Plan to help Home Healthcare Agency owners understand the requirements and in-depth analysis required by AHCA. The Healthcare Business Plan should start with the Executive Summary.

“EXECUTIVE SUMMARY”

The Market Analysis is the most complex and where we as Healthcare Accountants with over 20 years of Healthcare Accounting experience really add value. The HHA Business Plan market analysis data is statistical in nature. Here is a sample:

“MARKET ANALYSIS”

The State of Florida has, an estimated population of 18,801,310 in 2010: from this total, about 17.2 % are 65 or older (U.S. Census Bureau, Quick Facts).

However, projections show that that percentage will grow even more 13.82% by 2015 and 2030 (taken from Data on County Aging Services Needs Assessment, University of South Florida, October 3, 2007), even the Florida state general population rate of increase in the last 8 years was over 14.7% and the above-mentioned projection foresees growth of over 15% from 2000 to 2020. We conclude that the market for serving the needs of the older population (those over 65) will have an increase in demand in these Counties in the next 5—10 years.

The Healthcare Business Plan continues with Level of Competition, Market Strategy, Timeline, Personnel, Recruiting & Retention Strategy, Admission Policies, and more.
