Lending-as-a-service provider recognized for its strategic business alignment success
Epic River, a lending-as-a-service provider that connects banks and credit unions with healthcare providers to streamline patient payments, has been named the recipient of the 2023 Alignment Award by TrueSpace. The Epic River team received this accolade for its success in redefining and strengthening operational strategies to align with its long-term mission, values and goals.
TrueSpace is a consultancy and research firm specializing in guiding accomplished CEOs of established post-startup enterprises towards achieving their next-level objectives. Epic River has been in partnership with TrueSpace for three years. With their support, Epic River has experienced remarkable growth in terms of revenue and its influence within the industry.
“It has been incredible to witness the foundational growth Epic River has undergone during the three years we’ve worked with their leadership executives,“ said Charles Fred, co-founder and CEO of TrueSpace. “We commend their team’s dedication to deeply examining their core organizational vision and harnessing this internal alignment to craft well-defined growth strategies for enduring company success."
TrueSpace assesses CEOs and their organizations using a framework of five operating conditions: Alignment, Endurance, Discipline, Predictability and Value Creation. The Alignment criteria gauge the effectiveness of a company in aligning its limited resources—time, capital, and talent— to focus on a well-defined market and a unique perspective. Earning this award signifies that Founder/CEO Jeff Grobaski and the Epic River team have adeptly fostered organizational cohesion and possess the fundamental elements required for long-term, sustainable growth.

The company's lending-as-a-service platform empowers these financial institutions to collaborate with healthcare providers, offering patient financing services. Through Epic River's patient lending technology, community financial institutions can generate high-quality loans, reduce medical bill non-payment risk faced by healthcare providers and provide cost-effective payment solutions to patients in need.
“We are incredibly honored to receive the Alignment Award from TrueSpace,” said Grobaski. “Working with their team has deeply strengthened our business strategies and helped us recognize how we could synchronize our organizational focus with our objectives of sustaining local banking institutions and supporting communities across the country. Aligning our activities with our overarching mission has enabled us to effectively grow the business and better position community banks to serve their local healthcare markets.”
