Layoffs in the health care industry have created a number of boutique services as health services providers have willingly, or unwillingly, gone into business or practice for themselves. We are seeing a growing number of commercial care providers in the fields of: nutritional counseling, eldercare referral services, drug adjudication, preferred provider networks, stress management programs, ergonomics, pharmacy benefit management, mail order drug stores, disability management, and disease state management.

Les mises à pied dans le secteur de la santé ont suscité la création de points de services spécialisés au fur et à mesure que les prestateurs de services de santé se sont sentis forcés, jusqu'à un certain point, de fonder leur propre entreprise ou de travailler en pratique privée. Nous constatons la présence d'un nombre croissant de prestateurs commerciaux de soins de santé dans les domaines suivants : conseils en nutrition, services d'aiguillage pour les personnes âgées, traitement des demandes de règlement pour les médicaments, réseaux de prestateurs recommandés, programmes de gestion du stress, ergonomie, gestion des soins pharmacothérapeutiques, pharmacie postale, gestion de l'invalidité, gestion des maladies.
