Cardiovascular programs face immense pressure to deliver superior clinical outcomes in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible. Cardiovascular leaders and hospital executives alike focus on structural heart and cardiac surgery, two marquee, fast growing areas of the cardiovascular service line, to drive a positive impact on the organizational bottom line. However, the highly complex nature of these programs, coupled with expensive therapies and the potential for significant clinical complications, can erode their profitability. To effectively combat these challenges, organizations must be equipped with data intelligence capabilities to rapidly surface opportunities for improvement and measure the value generated from targeted performance improvement initiatives.
This session shared experiences and best practices from Rutgers-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School to achieve significant clinical, operational, and financial gains for their structural heart and cardiac surgery programs by using Biome Analytics’ innovative technology and performance management solutions.
