National Health Advisors

What National Health Advisors does

National Health Advisors, LLC (NHA) is a Washington, DC-based federal health policy and government relations advisory firm serving healthcare and life sciences clients. The company was formed in 2009 as a strategic joint venture between EBG Advisors, Inc., a national strategy and management consultancy, and The National Group LLP, a premier Washington lobbying firm. NHA delivers five integrated service offerings: health policy analysis, alliance development and coalition building, strategic messaging development, coverage/coding/payment representation, and legislative and regulatory risk assessments. Its team comprises former Congressional staffers, White House officials, HHS and CMS executives, and healthcare and life sciences attorneys who employ a bipartisan approach to federal advocacy on behalf of clients that include academic medical centers, hospitals and health systems, health plans and insurers, pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers, biotechnology companies, associations, coalitions, and investors.

The firm's core technology is human expertise and policy intelligence rather than a software platform; deliverables are produced through direct professional engagement. NHA generates revenue through professional services fees, typically structured as multi-year retainers or engagement-based contracts with enterprise-tier healthcare clients. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales supplemented by referrals through its parent companies' networks, with the Washington, DC office serving as the sole headquarters. There is no proprietary software, API, or AI capability documented; the firm's intellectual property is concentrated in the team's relationships with Congressional leaders, federal policymakers, and senior administration officials, supported by a documented track record of material policy outcomes including saving $4 billion in federal healthcare funds for Puerto Rico and securing a double Star Ratings bonus for a Puerto Rico health plan.

NHA operates exclusively at the U.S. federal level with no disclosed international footprint. The company is privately held as an LLC, with no public ticker, no disclosed funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no subsidiaries. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and the firm's growth indicators — headcount, revenue, and product expansion — are not transparently reported.

Broad incumbents

• Polsinelli (Federal Advocacy / Healthcare): National law firm with an established federal advocacy and healthcare-policy practice; not a pure-play lobbying boutique like NHA, but a broader incumbent that competes for the same healthcare-policy advisory mandates.
• The National Group LLP: Washington DC-based federal lobbying firm and the other parent of NHA, specialising in federal funding and appropriations work for healthcare/education entities; comparable as a lobbying parent rather than a direct competitor.
• EBG Advisors, Inc. National healthcare/life-sciences strategy and management consultancy and one of NHA's two parent firms; comparable as a healthcare strategy advisory but with less focus on direct lobbying.
• McDermott Will & Emery (Health Policy / Federal Strategies): Major law firm with a large federal health-policy and lobbying practice covering providers, payers, and life sciences; broader portfolio but overlaps meaningfully with NHA in federal healthcare advocacy.

Direct peers

• CGCN Group: DC-based bipartisan lobbying and public-affairs firm with a healthcare practice covering providers, payers, and life sciences; directly comparable to NHA in client type and federal advocacy focus.
• BGR Group: Large bipartisan lobbying and public-affairs firm with a substantial federal health-policy practice serving providers, payers, and pharma — a larger-scale but directly comparable competitor to NHA.
• Forbes Tate Partners: Lobbying and public-affairs firm built around former Senate staffers with a dedicated healthcare and life-sciences vertical, directly comparable to NHA's bipartisan, ex-Hill-driven model.
• Thorn Run Partners: Washington, DC bipartisan government-relations and lobbying firm with a strong healthcare and life-sciences practice, very similar in service mix (policy advocacy, reimbursement, coalition building) and client base to NHA.
• Capitol Hill Consulting Group: Bipartisan government-relations firm with deep healthcare practice, founded by former Hill staff, offering nearly identical services (legislative strategy, coalition building, regulatory advocacy) to NHA.
• Avenue Solutions: Bipartisan federal lobbying and strategic consulting firm with a healthcare practice, closely comparable to NHA in DC positioning, talent background (former Hill staffers), and advocacy service model.
