What can I do for you

Rhian heads our commercial health practice and has a huge amount of experience in advising commissioners and both NHS and independent sector providers on all manner of  corporate and commercial matters. Rhian specialises in advising on the sector's most innovative and highest profile projects involving complex service reconfiguration, transformational change and the development of integrated models of care.

What do others say

"Rhian's team were a fantastic help to us as we ran our community services procurement. They were pragmatic and a pleasure to work with. Rhian's experience and market knowledge in particular helped us as we undertook transformational service change and the team provided the reassurance and legal sign off that enabled us to focus on the clinical priorities".

Supporting your ambitions

Rhian has been working with NHS Dudley CCG as they transform the way out-of-hospital services are delivered in their area. The project is a cutting edge move towards one of the country's first integrated care partnerships, which brings together GPs, community services and social care services in a first of its kind ICP contract worth over £4 billion. Rhian has guided the CCG through the complex procurement of this model, the development of the new ICP contract and its whole population budget as well as helping to navigate through the novel ISAP (integrated support and assurance process) regime.

What else should you know?

Originally a private equity corporate lawyer working in London, Rhian used her M&A experience on her first health project back in 2008 with the merger of two NHS trusts. Having agreed to undertake a secondment to the health team just for that project Rhian realised how much she loved the health sector and has never looked back.

I can't thank them enough for getting us through some really tough times and doing so with an amazing can-do attitude.”

“All interactions have been very clear. Responses to questions have always been very swift and unambiguous. Our company, and my family, have used various services in Mills & Reeve with the same level of satisfaction.”

“I value the fact that Mills & Reeve are recognised as a good place to work in the UK Best Companies survey. This aligns with the values of our business and means that Mills & Reeve can share what is required to achieve this status with our business.”
