Revive Anesthesia Consulting is a anesthesia provider-owned firm with over 80 years of combined clinical and healthcare leadership experience. We specialize in helping hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) transition to in-house anesthesia, optimize operations, and reduce reliance on third-party management.
Unlike traditional consulting firms—often backed by private equity groups or run by non-clinicians—we focus solely on helping hospitals regain control of their anesthesia services. Many of these firms push outsourcing over true optimization. Our approach is different—we prioritize reducing costs, improving efficiency, and optimizing revenue while fostering a collaborative, high-functioning anesthesia team.
We help hospitals transition, optimize billing, streamline staffing, and ensure compliance with tailored solutions.
We help hospitals transition to in-house anesthesia, optimize staffing, reduce costs, and ensure compliance with billing and regulations.
We provide on-site visits. We connect with staff and assess the department from the inside to optimize anesthesia operations and create sustainable models.
We audit anesthesia departments, optimize billing, improve reimbursement strategies, and consult on fair fee structures for CRNAs/MDAs.
We provide flexible staffing solutions, optimize scheduling, and offer locum/permanent staffing strategies to reduce costs and overstaffing.
We guide hospitals on compliance, cybersecurity, and risk assessments, ensuring anesthesia departments meet legal and security standards.
We offer mentorship, consulting, and training for anesthesia leaders, providers, and staffing agencies to enhance team management and compliance.
We recognize that hospitals prefer predictable costs rather than variable, commission-based fees. Our fee structures are designed to be transparent and adaptable:
Covers in-house consulting, travel costs, and administrative expenses. A predictable budget that you can count on.
Ongoing support and consulting for hospitals needing long-term optimization and strategic oversight.
This is for facilities that have budget constraints but that need the help. We can charge a small percentage of anesthesia collections for a limited period. This allows us to offer zero cost upfront consulting services.
