Leah Heimbach

For Leah Heimbach, caring for vulnerable populations is personal. Leah’s mother and father-in-law were in nursing homes. That’s when she learned that oversight is crucial to ensuring that healthcare facilities meet the high standards of care established in federal and state laws.

Leah’s multiple careers — as a lawyer, registered nurse, EMT-paramedic, flight paramedic, administrator of a federally funded injury control training and demonstration center, and executive director of a statewide emergency-physician nonprofit — converged when she co-founded Healthcare Management Solutions, LLC (HMS).

Leah distilled a lifetime of high-impact roles into a business model designed to protect vulnerable people, which became her life’s focus and daily passion. She has developed and implemented compliance and risk management programs, reduced organizational costs by millions of dollars, and improved overall profitability for a variety of healthcare organizations. A popular presenter at state and national meetings, Leah has authored numerous articles and book chapters for national publications.

Leah knows her entire leadership team is world-class, because she sets high standards and only hires people who truly embody HMS’ focus on care and compassion, combined with deep skill and experience.
