Our Experience
We come from healthcare.
Meridian products are effective because we understand the needs of healthcare professionals. Our executives come from the healthcare industry, bringing with them extensive knowldege of the challenges these decision-makers face.
Chris has worked in nearly every healthcare setting serving in different functions from analyst to managing director. His experience includes acquisitions, divestitures, financing, construction, development and management, all in the healthcare sector. Early in his career he developed a passion for gathering and analyzing data within the healthcare field. He has a profound understanding of reimbursement and cost components for treating patients in hospitals and clinics.
Having owned and operated successful and unsuccessful hospitals, he knows what information is paramount to operating a successful facility. He has assisted in arranging for over $50,000,000 in financing for Simba Holdings. He was directly responsible for the development of the Integra Hospital Plano, which has been featured in numerous publications and has won the ABC award for renovation in healthcare construction. Mr. LeBlanc also successfully negotiated a buyout of a 43 bed IRF facility in Baton Rouge in February of 2006. In April of 2006, he completed an approximately $45,000,000 sale/leaseback transaction of the Plano and Baton Rouge facilities.
Mr. LeBlanc is the CEO of Meridian Hospital Systems Corporation and is fulfilling his career dream of bringing meaningful and actionable data to hospitals, thereby guiding them to operate more profitably by eliminating wasteful spending and identifying untapped revenue sources within their own organizations. Mr. LeBlanc received his B.B.A in Finance from Baylor University.
Mr. LeBlanc has over 30 years in the Healthcare industry across the entire spectrum of healthcare. As a Co-Founder and President/CEO/Chairman of LifeCare Hospitals and Subsidiaries of Plano, he grew this Specialty Hospital Company (LTACH) from one 22-bed hospital to over 900 beds in 9 states, utilizing both freestanding and hospital-in a -hospital models. Success was achieved by developing a new kind of Specialty Hospital that uses a clinical model, which produced better outcomes at a lower cost for medically complex patients. With this new specialty hospital he developed a marketing strategy that educated clinical personnel on how to educate physicians, case managers, insurance companies, hospital discharge planners and social workers, etc, as to the benefits of this new program that produced an occupancy rate throughout the system of better than 75%.
In 2005 LifeCare was sold to the Carlyle Group for over $550 million dollars and is still the largest LTACH acquisition in the history of the industry.
Craig Stamm is a proven senior executive with extensive management experience in emerging-growth technology companies. He has led businesses in high-growth environments - driving growth through both organic and acquisition strategies. As President of Authentix, Mr. Stamm helped expand Authentix into a global company that conducted business in over 25 countries working with Global 1000 Corporations and Government Agencies/ Ministries. In 2007, he led Authentix into the currency authentication business and helped build that business unit into a globally-recognized industry leader. Prior to serving as President, Mr. Stamm served as CFO and Executive Vice President of Corporate Development where he led Authentix’ acquisition growth strategy. In 2008, the company was sold to The Carlyle Group and J.H. Whitney. Prior to Authentix, Mr. Stamm served as the CFO of Headhunter.net, an online recruiting firm. In 2001, after three years of rapid growth, the company was acquired by CareerBuilder.com, a company owned by a newspaper syndicate of the Chicago Tribune and Knight-Ridder. Post-closing of the acquisition, Mr. Stamm remained on as CFO of the combined entity. Before joining Headhunter, Mr. Stamm worked in the investment banking industry with CitiGroup and SG Cowen. Mr. Stamm holds an M.B.A from Columbia University and a B.A. from Tulane University. In 2008, Mr. Stamm was a finalist for Dallas Business Journal CFO of the Year for emerging-growth companies.

Simplify Healthcare
Providing quality care is complicated enough as it is.
Complex data systems only add to the stress of managing patient information and protecting the bottom-line. The burden of interpreting and understanding this data complicates the matter even further.
Complexity Uncomplicated
Meridian products cut through the complexity to present data in a meaningful way. Information collected from existing sources is compiled, sorted, and presented in a way that busy administrators can digest and understand.
Web-based Interface
No complicated programs to learn or employees to train. Meridian’s simple, web-based interface is a snap to pick up and requires no installation. It can be accessed from anywhere, making critical information available whenever it’s needed.
Improve Operating Margins
We come from healthcare.
In healthcare, the financial bottom line is tied to the real bottom line of providing the best care. Inefficient systems affect patients, administrators, and executives alike. Meridian enables hospitals to streamline their operations and operate at maximum efficiency.
Prevent Wasteful Spending Daily
Identify areas where spending does not equal results. See real-time spending information to inform budgeting decisions.
Identify Profitable Revenue Sources Daily
Identify care types that generate the most revenue for your facility. Understand how the patient mix affects the bottom line on a daily basis.
Streamline and Automate Processes
Understand operational inefficiencies. Discover ways to automate repetitive tasks and reduce administrative overhead.
Enable Proactive Decisions
Stay ahead of the curve.
Strong decisions are informed decisions, and prevent problems before they can occur. Meridian arms executives and administrators with the information they need to make confident decisions related to care and finances. No guesswork, no patchwork solutions. Just real data in real time.
Timely Data
Data is aggregated daily (or more often, if necessary) to present an up-to-the-minute snapshot of your operations. Outdated information leads to outdated thinking.
Help to Achieve Your Goals
Meridian enables users to see the big picture. Armed with this information, it becomes easy to set and work toward operational goals.
Ease of understanding
Data is presented in the way that you choose, creating levels of understanding that would otherwise be obscured by complicated charts and unorganized information. Simple graphs and tables save time and promote understanding of complex data.
Custom On-Site Installation
We handle the installation.
Meridian products integrate with any existing data system to provide instant functionality. They are web-based so no addition hardware is required, and they are also very user-friendly and intuitive so you can start using them right away.
One-time set up
Initial setup for most of our products is 2 weeks, but we do all the work and it doesn’t require any additional hardware.
Integrates With Your System
All of our products fully integrate with your current operational systems (clinical and financial), extract specific data, and report it in a meaningful way.
Always Up-to-Date
All of our products update automatically. So you always have the most current information available. With Meridian Intelligence you can proactively focus on specific action plans instead of broad and general improvements.
You Assign Access
Define user access by operational perspective.
Safe and Secure
Your trust is our responsibility. We always transmit data from your operational systems securely. This prevents potential hackers from infiltrating during the transmission and ensures your organization’s sensitive information is kept safe and private at all times.
