Who We Are

CSuite Solutions has put together a team of highly competent and experienced C-Level executives with a diverse set of skills to serve as Trusted Advisors to their peers in the healthcare industry. They have all previously served in the positions they are consulting with themselves, so they are well aware of the daily challenges faced by executives looking to grow their organizations and improve efficiencies.

CSuite Solutions was founded by Stephen Mason, Managing Partner; and Stewart Schaffer, Managing Partner. Combined, they bring nearly 50 years of experience in the healthcare marketplace to the table.

Mason served in key leadership roles in large US healthcare systems for the past 24 years. He recently served as CEO of BayCare Health System in Tampa, Fla. with 14 hospitals, 26,000 employees and more than $3 billion in revenue. Prior to BayCare, he was the COO of Texas Health Resources, an Arlington-based system with 13 hospitals, 17,000 employees and $2.3 billion of revenue.

“My focus at CSuite Solutions is to help our client’s succeed by delivering the highest level of customer experience, one standard of care across the enterprise, top decile quality and business performance, and sustainable business models and financial performance,” said Mason. “I am convinced we can help every healthcare organization transform themselves from a volume-based business model to one that is completely value-based, allowing them to better compete in today’s environment.”

Schaffer has been a senior strategy and business development executive in the healthcare, retail and hospitality industries for more than 25 years. He previously served as Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer at BayCare Health System where, during his tenure, he led an organization-wide direct- to-consumer marketing and business development strategy. His work led to a 20% increase in net revenue of $500 million, leading to increasing the system’s net margin from 5% to 7%. He previously held senior marketing and business development positions at International Paper Company, American Express and Club Corporation of America.

“I will be leading our direct-to- consumer and retail strategy advisory services, whose principal goal is to drive patient and member growth as well as retention,” Schaffer explained. “I have the benefit of having worked with some of the largest healthcare systems and consumer brands in the U.S., and I plan to bring that experience to work for our clients. I will use a wide range of internal and external data, along with a platform of analytical services to create a customized program for each of our clients. Our goal is to help C-Level executives make the best decisions possible for their organizations, and we have assembled a fantastic team, along with our range of first-rate tools, to help them achieve that.”
