About
Asbel Montes
Asbel Montes has built his career at the crossroads of healthcare finance, policy, and innovation. He has earned national recognition as both a trusted adviser to executives and the driving force behind solutions that deliver measurable results.
His expertise is sought at the highest levels of government and enterprise healthcare. Asbel has served in key federal roles, including Chairman of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Advisory Committee on Ground Ambulance and Patient Billing and as a member of the U.S. Department of Transportation Air Ambulance and Patient Billing Advisory Committee. He has also testified before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Health for Veterans Affairs, addressing systemic barriers to patient care and reimbursement.
His leadership within organizations such as the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) and the National EMS Advisory Council (NEMSAC) underscores his influence across both policy and finance.
Through these roles, Asbel has shaped national reimbursement policy and guided reforms that continue to impact healthcare systems, equipping leaders to navigate change with courage and act with confidence.
Building on decades of leadership in the EMS sector, Asbel saw firsthand how providers struggled with delays, denials, and a maze of reimbursement systems. That perspective fueled his drive to innovate. He co-founded Solutions Group Services, a healthcare consulting and technology firm, where he led the creation of Black Ink, the nation’s first AI-powered revenue-finding platform.
Black Ink has become a proof point of Asbel’s approach: simplifying systemic complexity and uncovering millions in hidden revenue. By equipping healthcare organizations to increase profitability and drive sustainable growth, Black Ink demonstrates the measurable impact of his vision.
Together, Solutions Group Services and Black Ink illustrate how Asbel pairs policy-level expertise with practical innovation, a combination that sets him apart in healthcare leadership.
