DEMONSTRATION - PHYSICIAN QUALITY
Physician, Quality, & Performance ... Analysis Through a Looking Glass or are you in Wonderland?
With the comprehensive data captured in MEDITECH, Hospitals often wonder how physician, quality, and performance are aligned not only within their own organizations but perhaps across settings of care.
PowerHealth Solutions can help remove the uncertainty of analysis by combining this data in a single location and examining patterns, trends, and opportunities. Hospital users will have a more transparent view of their operations and identify opportunities for performance improvement.
LECTURE - PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT
Is it Art or Science to Establish a Performance Measurement Program?
In today’s healthcare environment, hospitals are continually examining means by which to improve financial, operational and overall business performance. The needs of the various constituents within the hospital differ by discipline, by timeframe, by level of detail, and others to name a few. So as managers and executives strive for better performance, how should analytical teams begin to create a program which becomes integrated within the culture of the organization for sustainability. Is the approach for a successful Performance Measurement Program more the development of a specialized ART? Or is it merely a brass tack approach of applying SCIENCE?
What if the most successful programs are a combination of both? How does your organization define the guidelines and establish metrics for ensuring a higher level of performance?
During this session, attendees will learn: What is a performance measure program? What foundations should be in place before embarking on an established program? How to align performance measurement with Hospital strategy? Key points for ensuring Performance Measurement success and sustainability
By using key data/screens from Meditech showcasing some primary sources of data and walking users through the process of transforming transactional data into valuable actionable information, the speaker will direct attendees towards linking the best of the ART of analysis with the SCIENCE of data availability. This introduction to aligning ART & SCIENCE allows managers and analysts the ability to support executive direction and hospital strategy like never before.
LECTURE - FINANCIAL FOCUS
Move Your Money to the TOP! Without losing focus on your bottom line
By examining expected reimbursement, charges, actual payments, and costs, hospitals can focus on the financial goals of the organization and keep up with the various components of financial stability. Looking at trends, investigate cases or payors or patient types and keeping their performance on top of the list, will help drive better financial results and improve the bottom line.
LECTURE - LINKING CLINICAL & FINANCIAL
Bridging the Gap so that Everybody Wins: Linking Clinical Operations and Financial Impact for Sustained Improvements
True performance management requires examining the hospital’s entire organization. Unfortunately, in many healthcare systems, clinical performance analysis and financial analysis are conducted in isolation which creates a gap between various teams in the hospital.
By looking at clinical operations, including physician trends and utilization patterns, and linking to the financial impact, a bridge can be developed which transcends historical perceptions so that the hospital’s ongoing improvements efforts are more successful.
The relationship between clinical operations and financial impact has never been more important as CMS and many insurance companies are beginning to deny reimbursement for certain events.
We will show you how to look at this comprehensive data with a whole new clarity so that you have a complete transparent view of your business and identify opportunities for true performance improvement.
