Serving healthcare providers, I can't help but think beyond the day-to-day blocking and tackling of revenue cycle management that we do for our clients. Particularly on the issue of how to make healthcare assets more productive. Shout out to Terry ShireyI who has done some work on energy infrastructure in healthcare. He and his colleague Michael Tym, CFA got me thinking about energy infrastructure as an overlooked balance sheet liability. Especially for hospitals. Borrowing from the folks in commercial real estate, I'm wondering if the Energy-as-a-Service model might offer an opportunity to convert an liability into an asset. This is mostly true for non-profit health systems through renewable energy tax credits . In their case, the health system can retain asset ownership while passing operational and performance risks to an EaaS partner. Things that make you say hmmmmm. #rcm #eaas #healthcarefinance #energy #realestate #healthsystem #kaufmanhall

Harvard Business School has a special place in Carrum Health's history since Professor Robert Huckman wrote the seminal case on bundled payments, making Carrum a subject of the case-study. https://lnkd.in/gx4Nvuas Since 2017, that case has been pivotal in educating students about the benefits of bundled payments and getting them ready for the value-based care transition we are going through in our healthcare system. Looking forward to the conference and discussing trends in the VBC transition.

Throughout my career, I’ve been privileged to build and execute growth strategies that drive measurable success for organizations. A well-crafted growth strategy shapes how businesses scale, innovate and thrive in competitive markets. Since joining Altus Community Healthcare, I’ve devoted much of my time to refining and executing our growth strategy. It’s not just about increasing revenue – it’s about creating a sustainable path to long-term success while adapting to evolving market dynamics. Ultimately, our patients benefit. By identifying new opportunities to differentiate and innovate, we’re further improving their healing journey and strengthening our purpose as a healthcare provider. Developing a successful growth strategy requires great teamwork, long hours of research, and careful thought. But when you see the difference it makes – for the organization and the people we serve – it’s more than worth it. I’m excited to continue this journey with my incredible team and look forward to exploring new ways to drive meaningful change. #GrowthStrategy #Leadership https://altushc.com/

The digital health rhetoric these days seems to be quite polarizing. While acknowledging the pivotal role of technology in enhancing health, we are still in the early innings for healthcare tech as it relates to the transformative impact many had expected to come to fruition. I sat down with my long-time friend and colleague, Mona Siddiqui, MD, MPH, MSE, leader Highmark Health to put together our thoughts on how to truly create scale in healthcare through technology. The TL/DR: 💻 1. Scalability requires greater connectivity, diving into the integration of technology in clinical settings. 💵 2. Payer reimbursement models need to catch up to the changing care delivery landscape 🧠 3. There is real potential for AI and machine learning but it doesn't replace care 💢 4. The future of digital health scalability relies on a multifaceted approach. Highlights include some of the key players leading the way like 7wireVentures portfolio companies NOCD, Jasper Health, GroundGame.Health, as well as Waymark, Author Health, and more. Read more of our thoughts in our latest MedCity piece below! https://lnkd.in/gYSvdPgC
