The Ohio Hospital Association’s Post

Point (of view)–counterpoint (of view): RAND vs. American Hospital Association on #hospitalpricing

Knowledge is power! 🏋🏾♀️ Spent the last two days at the Purchaser Business Group on Health (PBGH) retreat and learned about the Patient Rights Advocate Hospital Price Finder tool, which "aggregated publicly available price transparency data from 6,000 U.S. hospitals to empower all Americans with actual, upfront hospital prices". Already shared with some Covered California team members and brainstorming how to leverage this data transparency to benefit our enrollees! https://lnkd.in/giykekx4

3/4 of hospital board members have no clinical background. Given this lack, how are hospitals supposed to effectively conduct quality- and performance-improvement efforts? Three tips: 1. Hospital and health system board members must do more than just approve budgets. They need to help establish the organization’s goals, make strategic decisions, and oversee performance while building relationships with key stakeholders. 2. Board members need to understand the value inherent in quality and performance improvement endeavors. 3. Board members must thoroughly understand the communities and patients they serve. #HospitalBoard #HealthcareLeadership https://ow.ly/Y08950Q6w41
