Market snapshot
These figures describe Healthcare Consulting & Advisory (4.4.2), the segment that Healthcare Management Consulting sits within — not Healthcare Management Consulting on its own.
FragmentationFragmentedEstimate
Mapped to miscellaneous ambulatory services (NAICS 621999, ~$25B) — a broad residual category, not specifically consulting; healthcare consulting proper sits within management consulting (541611), so it is not cleanly sized here.
