Key Points From the Interview
oday's guest was a whirlwind of activity during the Covid years.
Nik Hulewsky bought a medical billing company in June of 2020, anticipating (correctly) the impending demand for billing services.
Two short years and a tripling of EBITDA later, he sold that business for more than twice what he'd acquired it for — a life-changing exit.
And also during those two years, he started a hospice business, then acquired a home health bolt-on, and grew that combined business to $11m in revenue and exited it in June 2023.
Now, these are big dollar figures, especially for such short time frames.
But there were disappointments along the way, and I think you'll agree that Nik's tone is not one of victory, but humility.
So this is a story of one entrepreneur's rollercoaster through 2 healthcare niches that are popular among the searcher community: medical billing and home care/home health.
Listen closely if you've ever considered either of these, or healthcare broadly. We get philosophical about it at moments.
Also listen for Nik's advice at the end, where he goes against the grain. Teaser: "Life is long. Don't be in such a rush." Love that.
