Southwest Consulting Associates (SCA) was founded in 1989 to provide financial consulting services to healthcare providers. Our team of experts creates customizable 340B solutions for our clients to help providers optimize reimbursement savings while ensuring compliance with applicable laws and

regulations. A differentiator, and what we believe to be a game-changer, is our ability to create a unique and comprehensive overall service not only in the 340B realm but also in the Medicare DSH

reimbursement space.

For many hospitals, the path to qualification for the 340B drug discount program is through the Disproportionate Share Hospital payment calculation. In today’s environment of uncertain Medicaid expansion status, complex implementation of expanded programs, unclear requirements and

obligations under new presumptive eligibility – qualification for this important program could be here today and gone tomorrow.

SCA provides a full array of support from DSH qualification through 340B application, certification, implementation, compliance review, mixed use area assessment, audit and other program integrity based services.
