The Single Metric to Measure Health System Growth Success

Health system executives frequently struggle with how to summarize the success (or lack thereof) of their health systems overall performance and lack a defined metric to align organizational goals around. HSG developed Patient Share of Care in collaboration with Academic and Community Hospitals to create a single metric measuring the health system’s acquisition of patient lives and retention of those patients within their network of Inpatient, Outpatient and Ambulatory care.  This webinar will cover an overview of Patient Share of Care, as well as explore alternatives for how it is calculated and utilized by health systems of varying sizes and geographies.


 

Patient Rights- Part One

Abuse, Restraints and Seclusion

Hospitals must comply with the conditions of participation of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. According to CMS and accrediting organizations such as Det Norske Veritas and The Joint Commission, the patient rights and responsibilities condition of participation consistently ranks among the top condition-level deficiencies cited. Within that condition, most noncompliance issues arise from the regulations governing abuse, restraints and seclusion.
