No healthcare organization can operate effectively and efficiently without access to resources – the people and things that make healthcare happen. All resources impact compliance, reimbursement, cost of care, and patient outcomes; however, data related to their utilization and productivity are often tracked in separate systems—the result: a fragmented look at an organization’s productivity, capacity, and throughput.   

The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated how detrimental fragmented visibility can be for an organization. The level of care patients receive is directly impacted by the understanding of resource availability, including care professionals, beds, ventilators, and other critical resources. The pandemic has proven that organizations need a clear view of the productivity and availability of resources, especially when standard processes and procedures are upended.    

The importance of proper resource management will not go away when the pandemic ends. Insightful monitoring of patient care needs, labor costs, equipment, and location-allocation allows healthcare organizations to run efficiently.    

In this informative and engaging presentation, attendees will learn why productivity and utilization data can unlock the data needed to efficiently and effectively deliver care. Participants will walk away with new strategies and insights that will help them implement resource management best practices to build or adapt strategies that help their organizations thrive.
