Deep respect to Nicole Roberson and her fearless leader, Dr. Gay Landstrom. They demonstrated the courage (and stamina) necessary to create "a better way" to manage contingent labor ... Building FirstChoice, a home-grown and highly effective in-house program leveraging our powerful enabling software. Proving that health-systems truly can takeback control of their staffing. Achieving sustainable ratios of perm, float and external agency personnel - and build happier workforces - while positively/materially impacting their systems' bottom-line.
Congrats to Nicole Roberson, MHA, CCWP and Trinity Health FirstChoice on the well-deserved recognition contributing to substantial increases in financial performance across the system. Always refreshing to see innovative workforce practices recognized on this forum! https://lnkd.in/gSv7KJTz

If you’re a Pacific Blue Cross plan member, you can vote right now to elect their new board members. And this time around, it’s especially important. There are three great candidates running — Jaime Matten, Dr. Chuanyi (Johnny) Nie, and Dr. Patricia Gerber (you can find out about them at https://lnkd.in/gGhUNH2W). We’re proud to support them, because we know their top priority is you and the benefits and programs you rely on. But another candidate is running: Dr. Brian Day. He’s been working for years to dismantle public health care and establish for-profit two-tier health care in BC. His vision for PBC includes getting into the business of owning and operating private hospitals. He’s running to make Pacific Blue Cross part of his own agenda of privatizing health care. Let’s elect people who have the best interests of Pacific Blue Cross plan members at heart. You can vote online at pbc.simplyvoting.com. • You will need your Policy Number and ID Number, which you can find on your PBC ID card. • If you are on an FNHA plan: in the policy number field, enter 40000. Enter your Status Card number in the ID Number field. Let’s make sure that PBC’s Board of Directors remains committed to putting people ahead of profit.

Now it is preparing to acquire nine Illinois hospitals from St. Louis-based Ascension in what would be the largest acquisition in the health system's 23 year history. Amazing what Dr Reddy and Prime Healthcare have accomplished. 5. Median hospital labor expenses up 5.2% Laura Dyrda. Median hospital labor expenses grew 5.2% year over year in June, according to Strata's Monthly Healthcare Industry Financial Benchmarks report. 6.

This is the kind of political grandstanding I find despicable. 9.

Don Stiffler, CCA Chief Revenue and Growth Officer will be speaking at the upcoming spring Becker’s Payer Issues Roundtable in April. Ahead of the conference, Don shared more about how CCA is making changes to simplify members’ experiences and improve equity. “Over the past two years I have helped lead our organization – specifically our products – to become more responsive to the unique needs of our members. Tailoring product design to address SDOH needs, including food and housing insecurity, and access to transportation; leaning into the unique needs of dual-eligible members with chronic conditions; and launching innovative programs to address non-traditional social needs like loneliness or legal assistance,” he says.

Why Kaiser Permanente Failed to Expand in the Past... Is This Time with Geisinger Different? With the 2023 Kaiser Acquisition of the Geisinger Health System in Pennsylvania and It's New Risant Health Organization Set to Acquire More Hospitals... It Begs the Question: "If Kaiser is So #Great, Why Is It Not in More Places in America Already?" Kaiser Tried--and Failed--to Expand to #Texas, #NorthCarolina, #NewYork and #NewEngland in the 1980s and 1990s. Kaiser Was Unsuccessful Because: 1) Kaiser did not have the local, large #CriticalMass of members from a #Union or #Government Employees that is necessary to fund the doctors, clinics and hospitals in the early days of operations. 2) The local #doctor and #hospital communities were adversarial to the vertically integrated, #HMO model of care. That was 30 years ago. Will Kaiser be more successful today? #Watch More #Healthcare Finance Videos on AHealthcareZ YouTube Channel.

Honored to connect with hospital leadership, thought leaders, and innovators who tirelessly support healthcare professionals and their teams at Minnesota Hospital Association’s leadership conference. At Associated Healthcare Credit Union, our legacy spans 71 years of partnering with hospitals, systems, and other heathcare employers to enhance the financial well-being of their team members. We understand their vital role and are committed to supporting them. In just two days, I've gained an even deeper understanding of the challenges hospitals face and the need for our complimentary financial well-being resources to lift financial stress from healthcare heroes. I am also inspired by the hospitals commitment to supporting all team members. Whether it’s through exploring AI to allow clinicians to focus on patients, or ways to share appreciation, it’s heartwarming to see the empathy and commitment hospitals have for their employees. The timing of this conference is outstanding, especially since my role with AHCU expanded earlier this month. Please let me know if you know of a healthcare employer interested in learning more. It's both a professional and personal mission to help employers provide free benefits to improve productivity, show appreciation, and increase the financial well-being of healthcare professionals and their families. Let's ensure the financial wellbeing of those who care for us all. Please share your thoughts on how we can help hospitals and their teams. It takes a village! To get us started, consider thanking a hospital leader for their dedication. They have a lot on their plates. Appreciation goes a long way. #Healthcare #FinancialWellbeing #Hospitals

Thrilled to share that we are presenting at this year's Reimagining Primary Care Forum on April 23 in Cambridge, MA. We're seeing behavioral health needs higher than ever before. And that burden? It is felt first in primary care. That gets at the very reason we need to "reimagine" primary care - and it is what behavioral health integration is designed to solve. Join us* as we unpack that and explore how the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) bridges the gap between data and action. ➡ https://lnkd.in/eJgGTaDQ #ReimaginingPrimaryCare #RPCForum #PrimaryCare #CoCM *Register using code "Mirah10" for 10% off.
