Maximize your hospital budget through an innovative physician strategy

On Demand Webinar | Intermediate | Physician Compensation

Maximize your hospital budget through an innovative physician strategy

Description

Physicians are one of the most important partners hospitals have. It is a relationship that truly defines the strength of a provider organization. It is also a business relationship defined by a specific contract or agreement, which can be complex in its structure. This session will examine the financial realities of hospital-physician relationships - during the COVID-19 crisis and beyond-and the strategies that help hospitals keep an eye on the total expenditures of their physician strategy.

Original Live Webinar Date: 10/6/20
After this program, you'll be able to..
  • Gain access to research from HFMA/Ludi that identifies the struggles hospital finance leaders face in paying their doctors and the concerns that keep them up at night.
  • Understand how to optimize your total physician contract spend - a critical financial benchmark that helps guide hospital budgeting and can assist with the CARES Act reporting.
  • Apply lessons learned from Ascension - one of the leading not-for-profit hospitals in America - and its approach to tracking, managing and paying on physician contracts.

Why you should replace adjusted discharges

The use of adjusted discharges as a metric of output to assess facilitywide productivity and efficiency is flawed and leads to invalid conclusions. It does not account for the increasing volume and complexity of outpatient procedures. During this session, Providence St. Joseph Health System will share how it effectively uses equivalent discharges and demonstrate why this metric is better suited to health systems.
