Clinical Resource Management

Improving clinical, operational and financial efficacy along the care continuum is a challenge many organizations are not equipped to tackle alone but is a required step that must be taken to be successful in the future.

Inpatient and Outpatient Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI)

Integration Planning & Management

Taking into consideration company culture and values, we help develop impactful, measured plans to integrate the operations of disparate organizations into a cohesive “system”, which we have found to be the common difference between a successful M&A transaction and a failed one.

Performance Improvement

With most community hospitals surviving on razor-thin margins, Executives must be hyper-responsive to changes in performance. We help develop data-based improvement plans and, with management, organize sequentially prioritized action plans that target energy where it matters most so as to optimize the speed and durability of results.

Revenue Cycle Improvement

With most healthcare organizations having razor thin margins, a small disruption to your revenue cycle can be catastrophic. We help organizations: 1) manage accounts receivable, 2) reduce denials, 3) increase point of service collections and other key revenue cycle metrics.

The result is a healthy revenue cycle that supports a strong performing organization and enhances overall patient experience.

Ensuring you are right sized to meet the demands of your patient’s while also maintaining efficient processes, will set you apart from your competition. Our experts help your organization determine the right complement of staff, outline processes to utilize them at their top of their skillset, while also balancing cost.
