If you have a growing healthcare business, you’re familiar with the term (and the reality of) “growing pains.” And depending on how quickly your company is expanding, the excitement is often mixed with a variety of new challenges that can take time and attention away from valued patients, product innovation and fulfillment, or client service needs. A big contributor to this is an increase in HR administrative responsibilities – including staying on top of time tracking and payroll administration, making sense of employee benefits, reducing employee turnover, navigating the complex world of HR compliance, complicated HR information systems, and more.
So, why not build out your own internal HR team to accommodate these needs? For most small and mid-sized companies, bringing in full-time staff focused solely on HR is not financially feasible. Piecemeal outsourcing of HR management needs can also end up costing you—both financially and in time spent coordinating and communicating with multiple vendors.
For many growing companies, the HR services and expertise provided by G&A Partners can be invaluable. You started your business to take care of patients or provide a valued product or service to the healthcare industry – not to spend hours managing payroll and other time-consuming HR tasks. But these responsibilities are a vital part of running a successful company. By outsourcing these needs to the trusted experts at G&A, you can get back to focusing on the core needs of your organization or medical practice.

The G&A Difference
“Excellent client service.” As consumers, we’ve been exposed to this phrase so often it begins to lose its impact and its meaning. But at G&A, providing best-in-class service isn’t a baseless marketing claim. It’s at the core of who we are, and it’s a long-term commitment that has evolved as our world and the needs of our clients have evolved.
For more than 25 years, we’ve put people—both our employees and our clients—first. This people-first ethos has allowed us to grow from a team of three to more than 600 talented employees. And we work together every day to support hundreds of healthcare businesses just like yours.
What does that look like for you? It means we’re available with expert support when you have a question. We draw on the collective negotiating power of our 2,000+ small to mid-sized client companies (with more than 50,000 employees) to procure affordable rates on a variety of benefits options for your staff, including Fortune 500 level health insurance. We share our more than two decades of experience to help your company remain compliant and current with employment laws and trends. And so much more.
Turning Feedback into Award-Winning Client Support
How do we know our commitment to excellent client service is making a difference? Simple. We ask our clients. Often.
Originally developed by a partner at international management and consulting firm Bain & Company, we utilize the Net Promoter Score (NPS) survey to gauge how our clients are feeling about our level of service. The NPS survey helps companies measure customer experience and receive valuable feedback in the process, and, in addition to G&A, it’s used by organizations such as Apple, Amazon, Google.
Though some businesses choose to send the survey out quarterly or once or twice per year, we send the NPS to our clients at the beginning of each month. Every single survey we receive back is read and shared with our leadership team, and the valuable input our clients provide allows us to further enhance our level of service and build a roadmap for immediate and future improvements.
With an average NPS score of 66 over the last 5 years, G&A's customer service ranks best in class among the HR outsourcing industry.
