The Focus Group

The Focus Group is a boutique healthcare consulting firm focused on growth strategy, market intelligence, and business transformation rather than drug development. The company advises healthcare providers, payers, life sciences companies, health foundations, and private equity investors on issues at the intersection of healthcare policy, payment, and delivery. Its services have included market intelligence, strategy development, go-to-market execution, and transformation programs intended to identify commercially viable growth opportunities. Founded in 2014 in New Orleans, the firm later became part of Health Management Associates and has operated as "The Focus Group, an HMA Company." It appears to be healthcare-related, but not a biotech, pharma R&D, or therapeutics pipeline company.
