Janet Shelley is the Chief Disruption Officer at Therapy Partner Solutions^® Holdings (TPSH), focusing on marketplace disruption across TPSH business lines.

Prior to joining Therapy Partner Solutions Holdings, Dr. Shelley was a partner in an independent physical therapy practice, then subsequently founded Medical Billing Center^TM (MBC), a therapy-specific billing and collections company. She served as MBC’s CEO from its inception, until she transitioned out of MBC and into the TPSH leadership team in January 2021.

Janet’s success as a business leader is due, in part, to her willingness to dig deep in the healthcare space, and to her innate ability to recognize, and adapt, to new market trends. Following graduation from physical therapy school Janet snagged a job at an orthopedic specialty hospital and immediately experienced healthcare disruption firsthand as a major shift in payment by Medicare when diagnostic-related groups (DRGS’s) became the payment methodology for inpatient hospitalizations. Consequently, her hours were reduced, while her first home mortgage and student loan payments were due. Thus, disruption, and the ability to react accordingly, became fundamental themes of her professional career.

While DRG’s may have been the first disruption in Janet’s professional life, many others followed. Dr. Shelley became the first female partner in the oldest private practice in South Carolina. Her involvement in the therapy marketplace quickly expanded to include free standing physical therapy offices, hospital joint ventures and home health contracting. While in practice, disruptions to market share and healthcare regulatory challenges (i.e. Balanced Budget Act, Therapy Caps, One-on -one inclusion in CPT coding language, Physician Ownership, Resource Based Relative Value Unit Payment) bore opportunities for growth out of seemingly detrimental policies.

The theme of disruption hasn’t been limited to Janet’s professional career. Personal disruption along the way added a physical therapist husband, a certified nurse anesthetist (CRNA) son who likewise married a CRNA, and a physician daughter who married a mechanical engineer, finally lending some non-healthcare interest to her nuclear family!

Janet is actively involved serving her community with her church family, enjoys a legislative appointment to a regional healthcare board and gives abused and neglected children a voice in court as a Guardian ad Litem.

Dr. Shelley will be the first to admit that the new, disruptive ideas are not usually her own. Instead, she finds insight from a network of professional colleagues and through industry trade associations, many of which she serves on at both state and national levels. She dedicates her time to influence, interpret and educate colleagues on regulatory changes that will disrupt healthcare. Thoughtfully, Janet aspires to “Be like a flower. Survive the rain but, use it to grow.” Y Tiwari
