Healthcare Lobbying and Advocacy in New York
For healthcare organizations across New York, the ability to successfully navigate the ever-changing landscape often hinges on having an experienced healthcare lobbyist to guide the journey. At Park Strategies, we offer strategic healthcare policy advocacy to help hospitals, long-term care facilities, and nonprofit associations achieve their goals.
Who We Support
Park Strategies works with a diverse range of healthcare organizations. We help them understand the playing field, engage constructively with policymakers, and communicate their priorities clearly and effectively.
Hospitals & Health Systems
Hospitals and health systems face ongoing challenges related to Medicaid reimbursement, workforce shortages, capital project financing, and the New York State budget process. We help our clients present their needs clearly to decision makers, monitor emerging budget language, identify opportunities for funding, and pursue regulatory solutions when necessary.
Long-Term Care (LTC) & Aging Services Providers
LTC providers, nursing homes, assisted living organizations, and home care agencies often operate in regions with unique demographic and patient-mix considerations. We work tirelessly on behalf of providers seeking Medicaid advocacy and support for Medicaid rate adjustments, funding to ensure sustainability for facilities in financial distress, and funding to support facilities with specific needs.
Healthcare Associations & Nonprofits
Associations and nonprofit organizations play a key role in shaping healthcare policy statewide. Our team assists in raising their profile with policymakers, ensuring they are aware of annual grant opportunities through the state budget process, facilitating productive conversations with state agencies, and structuring advocacy efforts that raise visibility and engagement.
Our Approach
Advocacy Driven by Experience
Effective representation requires a level of expertise in how policy decisions are formed, negotiated, and implemented. Our approach as a healthcare lobbying firm is informed by our unparalleled experience as healthcare policy consultants in state government. This includes substantial work formulating and negotiating large portions of the state budget relating to healthcare. Our clients benefit not only from the capabilities of individual advisors, but also the collective support of the full team.
We put our experience to work for our clients every day, assisting them in:
- Preventing or supporting the passage of key legislation
- Amending language in proposed legislation and budget bills
- Assessing and pursuing funding and contracting opportunities
- Advocating for client priorities during state budget negotiations
- Monitoring and engaging in regulatory reform discussions
- Organizing advocacy days and coordinated outreach to lawmakers and staff
- Raising their profile at the state agency level as well as within the state legislature
