Premier Choice Group

What Premier Choice Group does

Premier Choice Group & Associates is a private strategic advisory firm founded by Shanae D. Hill in 2010 (originally as Premier Choice Capital) following her career at KPMG advising Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies. Headquartered in Tampa, Florida with a second office in Miramar, the firm employs approximately 14 people and operates as a founder-led, privately held professional services business with no external funding disclosed.

The firm's offerings are organized around three readiness pillars: Compliance Readiness (NCQA accreditation, CMS/Joint Commission/ISO/SOC readiness, credentialing, policy alignment), Financial Readiness (financial infrastructure, internal controls, audit readiness, operational assessments), and Market Readiness (brand positioning, executive visibility, content strategy, partnership development). Delivery follows a proprietary five-stage model (Assess, Align, Prepare, Execute, Sustain) led by the founder-CEO and the Partner & COO. There is no software product; all services are advisory engagements delivered by the leadership team and supporting consultants.

Premier Choice Group generates revenue through professional services fees on customized, quote-based engagements initiated via a website intake form, with follow-up consultations typically within 24–48 hours. The client base spans at least eight verticals — with healthcare (including AdventHealth, Tampa General, Chapters Health System, and a Fortune 500 healthcare organization) as the primary segment, alongside construction (DuCon), education (EdChoice), sports (Orange Blossom Classic), financial institutions, foundations/family offices, government, and technology. The firm markets through thought-leadership content, social media, email, podcast, case studies, and speaking engagements by the CEO and COO. Reported outcomes include 0% findings during a healthcare accreditation review, full CVO certification, multi-million dollar cost savings for a Fortune 500 client, and EBITDA stabilization during market volatility. The firm also holds Small Business Enterprise, Disadvantaged Business Enterprise, and Women-Owned business certifications supporting supplier-diversity procurement access.
