Who we are
Wert-Berater, Inc. has prepared independent feasibility studies for lenders, certified development companies, and federal agencies since 1998 — more than four thousand engagements representing $40.2 billion in evaluated project value across all fifty states and international assignments. Our fiduciary duty runs to the lender and the agency, never to the sponsor’s optimism: fees are fixed, quoted up front, never contingent on findings, and a determination is never changed under pressure.
What we do
Rehabilitation spans outpatient therapy clinics through inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, and the underwriting scales with the setting: outpatient clinics are visit-volume businesses driven by referral relationships and payer authorization patterns, while inpatient rehab adds certification rules, qualifying-condition criteria, and census economics. The study sizes visit or census demand from population utilization and the referral base, prices it through the payer mix with authorization and visit-cap realities stated, and for inpatient settings documents the regulatory classification — the rules that decide which patients the facility may serve and how it is paid.
How we do it
Visit modeling per therapist at documented productivity standards for outpatient settings, census and length-of-stay modeling under classification criteria for inpatient settings, referral-source concentration analysis, and payer-yield modeling with the authorization friction the category lives with built into the volume curve.
How we can help you
Outpatient clinics fit SBA structures; inpatient rehabilitation facilities route conventional and system-affiliated frameworks; franchise therapy concepts are evaluated on system economics. The firm's clinical-facility record supplies the census-and-productivity architecture across both settings.
How to engage us
Standard delivery is 10 to 15 business days from complete project data. Rush delivery for deals already in underwriting is accepted case by case for an additional fixed fee, quoted up front and committed in writing. Engagements are typically initiated by the borrower, with lender or CDC confirmation obtained before work begins — institutions differ, so confirm the procedure with your lending contact.
