Cejka Search Healthcare Perspectives, a groundbreaking study of 1,621 practicing physicians and healthcare administrators, identifies the top healthcare delivery priorities among both groups -- how they differ and the greatest opportunities for alignment, collaboration and engagement related to the new requirements of American healthcare. The findings provide insight on attracting, engaging and retaining high-performing healthcare leadership teams in today’s transformative healthcare market.
As reform moves toward value over volume and healthcare leaders take on increasingly complex payment and reimbursement plans, they struggle to align the physicians within their organizations to their system’s financial and quality goals, while balancing the ever increasing demands and stresses on physicians and their patient care teams. Physicians and advanced practice providers are crucial to every performance, quality, safety, care utilization and patient satisfaction goals. These factors significantly affect an organization's financial viability, which is why providers' compensation must be aligned with them.

For a non-profit enterprise seeking to design effective investment portfolios for its asset pools, understanding the role of each of those asset pools is a crucial first step. The organization's goals and exposures can impact all parts of its portfolio construction process, from initial broad decisions on risk tolerance to more targeted decisions on asset-class exposures and investment vehicle preferences.
Given that each non-profit hospital and health system has its own unique situation, this Russell Viewpoint offers a framework for evaluating asset-allocation decisions. We highlight the need to consider and discuss the following:
Multiple roles of each asset pool within the enterprise
Market environments in which the stability of the individual pools would become most important
Any income statement implications of portfolio decisions

An innovative staffing and scheduling methodology is emerging in healthcare, and reinventing how hospitals and health systems leverage their most valuable resource – their employees – to achieve better outcomes. These outcomes include more satisfied employees, reduced labor costs and, ultimately, improved quality of care and patient satisfaction.
This new approach, called Collaborative Staffing, reimagines traditional staffing practices and offers new solutions to long-standing problems. The Collaborative Staffing model is being leveraged by many leading healthcare organizations to drive down labor costs and optimize staffing processes. These organizations are able to save money through smarter staff utilization, as opposed to workforce reductions. And with a focus on employee empowerment, organizations are seeing this positively impact turnover, recruitment, and staff engagement, which ultimately contributes to improved patient outcomes and quality.
Download the Whitepaper to understand the research demonstrating how Collaborative Staffing improves the efficacy, efficiency, and organizational outcomes associated with staff management. The analysis aims to detail the power of this staffing and scheduling paradigm, and exemplify how it benefits financial health, staff, and patients for hospitals using this model.
