Company Consistency
Also, as an independent healthcare partner, we are free from complex partnerships and distant investors that limit our competitors' responsiveness. NaphCare has not undergone any corporate reorganization or restructuring since the company was founded in 1989, and has no plans to do so in the future. This stability, along with planned and structured growth, ensures that our client partners receive personal attention from our administrative and medical support team at our headquarters.
Financial Stability
NaphCare is a financially stable and fiscally responsible company. Throughout our history, we have maintained steady, measured growth, more stable than sweeping corporate changes. Our clients do not have to worry about drastic shifts in our company and how such changes will affect their services.
One of the best indicators of a company's financial stability is its ability to secure insurance and a bonding line. NaphCare is proud of our ability to provide performance bonds, rather than letters of credit. Due to our financial strength, NaphCare has exceptional insurance programs that indemnify our clients against litigation regarding healthcare services.
