Health care leaders face challenging decisions about where to focus resources and prioritize investments to drive sustainable growth. These decisions often get delayed as executives address post-pandemic challenges and put out operational fires to keep up with daily business, care delivery, workforce shortages and other issues. 

To break out of this cycle, health systems need to evolve past stabilization and survival mode to reinvention and growth mode. For financial leaders, this means gaining more awareness about clinical operations and a greater understanding of care delivery priorities. While C-suite and organizational leaders face many obstacles to transformation, three internal pressures stand out. 

• Lack of financial visibility across the entire organization. 

• Lack of technical infrastructure. 

• Inability to deliver clinical care programs that meet community needs. 

Join us as we explore these issues with health system leaders who are successfully reinventing their care delivery methods as they continue to build a more sustainable operating model. Gain insights into greater visibility of cost structures, essential ways to involve clinicians in decision-making processes and effective management of the push-pull between cost pressures and workforce challenges. 

Attendees Will Learn:

• Explore approaches to involve clinical leaders in reinventing new care models. 

• Learn about investment approaches that provide system-wide financial visibility and that can help organizations self-fund new applications and growth aspirations
