Project
Work
Our methodologies are proven throughout healthcare. Past projects include Operating
Room efficiency, Productivity, Patient Throughput,
Patient Satisfaction, Revenue/Denials Management, and
many
more. All
project proposals outline a clearly defined timeline,
outcomes, and deliverables. We provide a full report
with an executive summary of findings and recommendations.
All reports, data, and other information are presented
to the client via written report, presentation (with
prepared slides for board or other meetings), and on
a CD/DVD for easy long-term storage.
System
Implementations
The
most important work for an implementation project begins before you
ever install the first piece of software. Many facilities forget that
new systems bring new opportunities to ask old questions: Why do we do
things this way? What could we improve? In an ideal world, how would
this process work? Scientifically analyzing and eliminating waste from
your current processes before you tie them to a new system is the only
way to maximize your new investment. We also work with you to
make sure you implement the complete functionality of the system as
needed.
Interim
Support Engagements
Our associates are also available to fill vacant positions on an interim basis.
We can assist you and your staff in filling the role and keeping projects on
time until permanent staff are hired. Consider us for your interim needs in
areas such as Patient Flow,
Patient
Satisfaction, Decision Support,
Financial Analysis,
Productivity,
Revenue/Denials Management, etc.
Training
with Cadence
Do
your managers understand how to use data on a daily
basis? Chances are they don't. Most health
care professionals have little experience when it
comes to using statistics and productivity information.
Cadence Health can help. We have a proven track record
of working with hospital staff to turn meaningless
numbers into useable information for daily management.
Cadence
has a wide range of topics, case studies, and real-life
examples -- all designed to give clinical
and ancillary directors the confidence they need to
manage staff, contain supply expenses, and participate
in the quality and productivity performance improvement
projects demanded by today's competitive health care
needs. We have pre-developed curicuulum or we can customize
to meet your needs. The following is a sampling of
topics:

Statistical
Analysis for Healthcare: Average vs. Median,
percentiles, scatter plots, histograms, basic
