Psychiatric Medical Care
Psychiatric Medical Care (PMC) was founded in 2008 by CEO James Alex in Nashville, Tennessee. The company was created to address the shortage of psychiatric services in community hospitals, focusing on adult, geriatric and child-adolescent behavioral health. PMC deploys a partnership model: it contracts with hospitals to design, staff and manage specialized psychiatric units. The firm covers five core programs: Behavioral Health Hospital, Senior Care Solutions, Child and Adolescent Services, and the newer telepsychiatry platform and Transitional Care Clinic. Its footprint spans over 30 inpatient units across 15 states (per company profile, 2022). Key regional clusters include the Midwest and Southeast. The firm's team includes Dr. Sandra B. Sexson as Chief Medical Officer, overseeing clinical protocols. PMC operates without a publicly disclosed AUM or external investment fund — it is an operating company, not an investment vehicle. Recent activity (2022–2023) includes the launch of a Transitional Care Clinic model and expanding telepsychiatry capacity. PMC's structural differentiator is its turnkey model for hospitals unwilling or unable to build psychiatric capacity independently. Rather than acquiring facilities, it provides the clinical framework, staffing and compliance infrastructure — a revenue-sharing structure that aligns with hospital operational risk.
