Rich Manners
Rich has worked in the HR field for more than 20 years and has held various leadership positions for companies providing HR solutions. Rich is the former president of LTC Business Solutions, a provider of management support to nursing homes. Throughout the ‘90s, he served as Senior Vice President of Staffing Concepts, where he also sat on the executive board and helped increase annual sales to more than $400 million prior to selling his share of the company.

During this time he also served as president and partner of USNow, a managed limited benefit plan provider, but sold his interest in April 2008 to focus on the growth of MBO. Since that time there has been positive growth in MBO.

Deborah
For more than 25 years, Deborah served as Human Resources Manager for a number of small businesses which employed fewer than five individuals. This experience, combined with a degree in Medical Technology, has given her a solid understanding of the inner workings of professional medical offices and benefit providers, as well as the unique needs of small businesses.

In her previous positions, Deborah’s involvement in Human Resources predisposed her to receive countless calls from PPO reps.  After having been in their shoes, she appreciates how important MBO is in helping small business associates realize the value of working with PPOs and how MBO can assist in making the relationship seamless.

At MyBackOffice, Deborah provides billing and customer service support. Having once filled that role of the clients she now serves at MBO, Deborah wants small businesses to understand that there are HR solutions that can help small businesses expand their access to benefits and relieve the time burdens associated with program administration.
