The establishment of a third-party payment system in the U.S. began in 1798 with the creation of the Marine Hospital Fund. This was the first publicly funded healthcare system.  We named ourselves 1798 Consultants, Inc. after this landmark date.

The Marine Hospital Service became the Public Health Service, which is now known as The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).  Eventually private third party medical insurance came to the U.S. as well.

1798 Consultants prides itself in having extensively worked and analyzed both public and private 3rd party agencies for both biopharmaceuticals and medical devices.

1798 Consultants recognizes that the healthcare business is complicated and that many of its challenges require solutions that aren't always black and white.
