Case Study: Healthcare Strategy Group achieves 2X more financial analysis and a 50% faster month‑end close with Sage Intacct

Healthcare Strategy Group puts its finances under the microscope with Sage Intacct

Healthcare Strategy Group (HSG) is a consulting firm that helps hospitals build physician networks and transition to value‑based care. The company’s financial workflows were bogged down by disconnected systems—QuickBooks didn’t integrate with time/expense and payroll tools—forcing manual data entry, error‑prone billings, slow month‑end closes, and limited operational visibility.

HSG implemented Sage Intacct for integrated project accounting, resource management and real‑time dashboards, enabling consultants to enter time from the field and automating job costing and invoicing. The change halved the monthly close, shortened days in A/R by nearly 25%, cut line‑of‑credit interest by 17%, doubled time spent on forward‑looking analysis, improved budget vs. actuals by 15%, and sped budgeting cycles by 50%, freeing staff for more billable work and better, data‑driven decisions.
