Alexander Aussi, CEOLed by former transplant administrators with more than 150 years of experience collectively in the field, Guidry & East assists transplant centers in streamlining their transplant business and clinical operations while ensuring compliance with Medicare Conditions of Participation and United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) Policies.
“We aid transplant centers, hospitals, organ procurement organizations, and specialty laboratories to implement processes and procedures in order to bring efficiency to their clinical and financial outcomes,” says Alexander Aussi, CEO of Guidry & East.
To that end, one of the leading services in its arsenal is the Feasibility Study to help a client kickstart or expand a transplant program. Guidry & East’s team treats each project uniquely, and hence starts by interacting with the client’s business, clinical, and medical leadership teams to get a snapshot of their transplant program’s vision and compare it with the market needs through a full-drawn market study. In addition to this, Guidry & East extends its assistance in designing and developing strategic plans and outreach programs, CMS mock surveys, quality assurance assessments, and mentoring services to navigate various aspects of the transplant program.
In some cases, the company also sends its experts to the client’s site as interim transplant administrators or quality assurance specialists to provide ongoing expertise. The team is even responsible for conducting peer reviews to carry out spot checks on organ transplant programs and review their functioning from an operational, financial, and clinical angle.
Shedding light on one of the many customer success stories, Aussi points out how they helped a medical center set up their new transplant program. Along with the ground services and feasibility studies, Guidry & East collaborated with the client’s leadership team to develop and put together policies and procedures for the center’s new job roles and contractual agreements. They even prepared the client for their UNOS approval and Medicare certification, and offered additional support for the recruitment of staff and spot checks to ensure that the new program was optimally performing from the start.

“As the federal and local governments keep refreshing their regulations for organ donation and transplantation, we want to help our clients stay at the helm of their successful transplant program needs,” concludes Aussi.
