The shift in healthcare costs requires the engagement of patients as financial partners.

CFO Report From his report, Lindemann noted provider based claims were not being filed in a timely fashion due to staff turnover and software/EMR challenges. Billing is now beginning to get caught up and closer to industry targets and standards. Changes to collections have started with the development of a new Financial Assistance policy which will be shared with the public in April. New printer fleet has been installed throughout the organization. Price and service were two key factors for the decision to move to Century Business Products. Lindemann also shared information regarding the LEAN process. A team of hospital representatives went to Avera to learn more about their LEAN process. Some parts of the LEAN principles will be used and implemented within our facility.

STRATEGIC DISCUSSION Hospitalist Program Merkley provided an in-depth presentation covering key information involving a Hospitalist Program. A taskforce was formed last fall which included Avera Clinic providers and hospital representatives to thoroughly research and investigate all aspects of the program. Merkley explained what a hospitalist program is and gave specific facts. Hospitalist care has grown quickly due to changes in how health care is delivered in hospitals and communities. It is estimated that approximately 60% of hospitals have some level of Hospitalist program. Some Hospitalists have advanced training in managing critical care and are typically leaders in patient safety and high quality care. Patient benefits include consistency of care, timely care, improved patient safety and satisfaction. Brookings Health System in conjunction with Avera is strongly considering implementation of a hybrid model involving 4 full-time Hospitalists covering 7am – 7pm Monday through Thursday and 24/7 coverage Friday through Sunday. The program should increase clinic visits and revenue while also enabling the hospital to increase the number of admissions and the raise the level of acuity. Ongoing support and engagement of the clinicians is key to the success of the program. Many factors and logistics of the program still need to be considered. The potential timeline is sometime in 2017 as it will take time to recruit physicians. Based on the information provided, a motion was made by Booher, second by Englund to approve the overall concept of the hybrid model Hospitalist program. Implementation of the program will be scheduled for 2017 but is contingent upon successful recruitment of providers and additional planning of operational objectives for the program. Action: All present voted yes; motion carried.
