Clinical Optimization

Fulfilling the promised value of the EMR

Impact Advisors’ clinical optimization experts will enable your teams to provide better care for more patients in less time, at lower cost and with less variation, resulting in increased revenue for your organization.

Challenges

Healthcare organizations that invested heavily in electronic medical record (EMR) systems are now realizing technology alone may not meaningfully improve their ability to care for or manage patients and, conversely, can contribute significantly to provider dissatisfaction. Recent staffing and supply shortages, among other familiar challenges, only compound the issue.

Poor patient satisfaction HCAHPS
Low CMS Quality Star Ratings
Shrinking margins
High Length of Stay
High Cost per Case and Medicare spend per beneficiary

Poor financial performance with ACOs, Risk, or CINs
High medical necessity denials, high observation discharges, low case mix index
Labor management – shortages, retention, turnover, competitive pay landscape, remote workforce, physician partnership, alignment
