Millennium Healthcare Management (MHC) was formed in January 2006 by Mr. Keith LeBlanc and Dr. Gerald Cvitanovich to provide management of urgent care and occupational medicine centers.
Combined, they bring together over 70 years of extensive emergency department, outpatient medical, hospital administrative and medical administrative experience.
Post Hurricane Katrina, the greater New Orleans area experienced a dramatic loss of physicians (approximately 2,400 to 4,000) and closure of five hospitals. In order to fill the void of appropriate, cost effective medical care, MHC has been instrumental in providing services to client urgent care/occupational medicine centers ranging from clinic start up and preparation, to full ongoing management through its diverse and comprehensive services.
MHC's staff is highly trained and experienced with over 25 years of medical management, and is proficient in different modalities in the medical industry .
