Report Captures Vision for Advancing
Healthcare Transformation, Creating Resilience, and Building
Interoperability
Huron Consulting Group (NASDAQ: HURN), a leading provider of
business consulting services, today released its annual Healthcare
CEO Forum Report. The report provides insights from CEOs of leading
multi-hospital systems, academic medical centers, and community
hospitals, who attended Huron’s annual CEO Forum to discuss the
strategies needed to succeed in the rapidly changing healthcare
environment.
“In the near-term, CEOs will need to focus on achieving clinical
and operational efficiency as healthcare systems work to optimize
cost and quality,” said Gordon Mountford, executive vice president,
Huron Healthcare. “At this year’s Forum, leaders shared their
insights and efforts to continue delivering the highest-quality,
safest, most affordable care to their communities, knowing that the
path forward will include new obstacles to overcome and new
opportunities.”
The report, “Leadership for the Future: Meeting the Challenges
of Change,” features perspectives from more than 15 senior
executives. The CEO Forum attendees focused on three success
factors –Advancing Transformation, Creating Resilience and Building
Interoperability– which shaped the presentations and panel
discussions.
- Advancing Transformation:
The transition to value-based payments is moving more slowly than
previously expected, CEOs agreed. At the same time, many
organizations are preparing to adapt to new business models by
building capabilities that deliver benefits under both
fee-for-service and value-based payment.
- Creating Resilience:
Fostering resilience among physicians is a top priority for
healthcare executives. High levels of burnout among physicians as
well as managers — due mainly to the pace and scope of change in
the industry — have heightened this concern.
- Building
Interoperability: Big data, analytics, electronic health
records, patient portals, and other IT advances are vital to
long-term success for providers, and building interoperability
among systems is critical to help realize the elusive ROI on IT
investments. The industry continues to analyze and understand the
costs, benefits, and importance of interoperability among key IT
systems.
