Jose specializes in providing attest* services to healthcare providers, including hospitals, health systems, federally qualified health clinics (FQHCs), and investor-owned surgical centers. His client base ranges from small, single-clinic FQHCs to large governmental health systems and everything in between. In addition to attest services, Jose offers operational consulting, assists with the adoption of new accounting pronouncements (FASB and GASB), and supports any additional needs his clients identify.
Jose’s unique approach sets him apart, as he views himself as a partner in the success of his clients’ businesses rather than an external service provider. He takes pride in delivering exceptional service and frequently draws on solutions from other experts within the firm to provide added value.
