Learn more about our Resource Management Solutions for Operational Excellence
Welcome to the forefront of operational excellence in healthcare. At Care Logistics, we recognize that resource management isn't merely a buzzword; it's a driving force behind a hospital's efficiency, quality of care, and financial prosperity. Your health system’s operational solutions (or lack thereof) directly impact how resources are managed across every level.
Making Informed Decisions for Your System
A lack of holistic understanding can be blamed for the majority of resource waste within health systems. In order to allocate and utilize resources effectively, your system needs to cultivate informed awareness. This level of awareness requires an understanding that spans through the past, present, and future data of the organization. The understanding must also encompass every level of the organization from the patient, to clinicians, to executives, and everything in between.
Our innovative solutions are purposefully engineered to transform how you manage resources, leading to improved efficiency across the entire system. We do so by facilitating informed awareness. Our solutions deliver retrospective analysis, real-time insights, and predictive forecasting that collectively drive informed decisions from your health system’s leaders. We go beyond data aggregation – our platform delivers prescriptive insights, empowering healthcare leaders to resolve operational inefficiencies confidently. These insights enable you to more accurately allocate resources in the present and better strategize your resource optimization moving forward.
Elevating Patient Experience, Staff Satisfaction, and Access to Care Through Resource Management
Picture a health system where patients receive prompt, high-quality care, staff members are empowered and fulfilled in their roles, and your hospital operates at optimal capacity. This is the reality our solutions can create. We understand that resource management isn't confined to dollars and cents; it profoundly impacts patient experience, staff experience, and your hospital's ability to serve the community.
Effective resource management begins with proper patient statusing. Identifying patients who are incorrectly assigned observation status and seamlessly progressing them to appropriate admission or discharge decisions can prevent tying up valuable inpatient resources. These resources are too often incorrectly diverted to observation patients, at the expense of both the patient and the system. Our solutions help your organization status patients more accurately, potentially leading to a revenue improvement of up to $4,000 per case for each patient who is correctly admitted as an inpatient rather than discharged in an outpatient status and a cost reduction of $500 per avoidable day. Correct patient statusing also safeguards against additional lost reimbursement due to medical necessity denials from insurance companies.
Better Match Resources to Patients with Proactive Patient Statusing
Empower Your Staff to Excel
Your hospital staff's potential is a powerful asset that can drive your institution's success. Our operational solutions help optimize the utilization of staff resources, ensuring that each team member operates at the peak of their capabilities. By leveraging advanced tools, we automate tasks, minimize unnecessary workload, and enhance patient care. When operations are optimized, your staff can operate at the top of their license, ensuring that patients are getting the right care from the right clinical staff. This boosts workforce productivity, resulting in enhanced patient experiences, increased revenue, and heightened job satisfaction among staff. Because you’re utilizing your staff more effectively, you can even reduce the need to bring on additional staff.
Many leaders may assume that an additional platform would slow down their staff and create additional work, but not in this case. Our solutions do just the opposite by seamlessly integrating with your existing IT investments to optimize the entire system, without the extra workload of double documentation.
Diagnostic stewardship is pivotal when it comes to resource management. The goal is to maximize the use of diagnostic resources while minimizing waste. Inappropriate or unnecessary testing not only affects budgets but also disrupts patient experiences. Our operational solutions empower hospitals to identify and curb overutilization, ensuring cost-effective, high-quality care. This approach doesn't just save costs; it streamlines diagnostic queues, enhances patient experience, and delivers an average increase of 13.9% in outpatient diagnostic volume.
Improve Diagnostic Stewardship
Optimizing Patient Progression for Better Resource Utilization
When patient progression is delayed and a patient remains in the hospital beyond their intended discharge date. This results in the allocation of precious healthcare resources, including nurses and inpatient beds, to individuals who no longer require that level of care. Moreover, there is the added concern that reimbursement may not be received for these extended hospital stays. Our role is to assist by identifying and eliminating obstacles that impede patient progress. This proactive approach enhances the likelihood of patients being discharged on-time, thereby releasing these valuable resources for the benefit of other patients who genuinely require them.
Patient progression shouldn't be hindered by bottlenecks and inefficiencies. Our solutions are designed to ensure that patients progress seamlessly through the care continuum. By addressing delays and inefficiencies, we help hospitals reduce costs, streamline patient flow, and improve resource management. With cutting-edge technology facilitating communication, friction-free patient journeys, and timely interventions, hospitals can expect shorter stays, reduced resource wastage, and enhanced profitability.
Combining Existing EHR Technology and Operational Solutions
Your EHR investment is invaluable for clinical documentation, but our solutions can supercharge its potential. By connecting your EHR to our operational solutions, you'll transform your EHR data into actionable insights, which drive better resource management and financial returns. Enhanced visibility, recommended actions, and heightened connectivity are the pillars of this integration, paving the way for superior care and financial efficiency.
Making the Most Out Of Scarce Resources
Effective resource management is the cornerstone of a thriving hospital system. Our operational solutions empower hospitals to embrace innovation while also decreasing costs. Whether it's improving patient progression, staff utilization, or diagnostic stewardship, we enable hospitals to make the most of their existing resources, resulting in significantly increased capacity and sustained financial growth.
