Experienced healthcare executive brings growth and business development expertise to the firm’s post-acute care investment strategy
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (November 4, 2026) — Heritage Group, a healthcare-focused private equity firm, today announced that hospice and home health industry veteran Mike Fleming has joined the firm as an Executive in Residence to identify and evaluate investment opportunities in hospice, home health, and the broader post-acute care sector.
Fleming brings extensive expertise in growing home-based healthcare businesses, with over 20 years of experience across some of the largest operators in the sector. Most recently, Fleming served as Senior Vice President of Growth at LHC Group. Prior to his work with LHC Group, Fleming spent a decade leading growth and business development at Amedisys. His background spans commercial strategy, sales leadership, marketing strategy, operations, and organizational development.
“Mike understands what it takes to build and grow hospice and home health agencies, both organically and inorganically,” said Jesse Bland, partner at Heritage Group. “His unique skillset and deep industry relationships will help us identify investment opportunities, evaluate growth strategies, and execute on our thesis. Most importantly, he will help us create more value within the post-acute sector, bringing high-quality care to more people.”
Fleming echoed these sentiments, expressing excitement about identifying prospective partners to accelerate Heritage’s investment efforts and bring more exceptional care options to more communities.
“Throughout my career, my mission has always been to help healthcare organizations grow and bring quality care to more patients,” said Fleming. “Our industry is at an important inflection point with a persistent underutilization of these services and more providers looking for opportunities to accelerate their mission and scale their care delivery. Heritage’s experience within the post-acute sector and their relationships with leading providers and payers make this a compelling opportunity.”
