Synopsis

A proven system for measuring the bottom-line valueof any proposed healthcare initiative

Healthcare costs in the United States are soaring out of control, and virtually every forecast predicts no end to this unhealthy trend.

Until now, there has been no way to quantify and prove the value of healthcare projects and programs. Measuring ROI in Healthcare is what the industry--and the nation itself--has been waiting for.

In this groundbreaking book that is sure to heavily impact the healthcare industry, four ROI experts show you how to measure what was previously unmeasurable and place accurate dollar signs on what was formerly impossible to value.

Whatever healthcare improvement projects you plan to introduce--from systemwide medical procedures, technologyimplementations, and systems integration to nurse retention, risk management, and leadership development--Measuring ROI in Healthcare provides the tools you need to prove the worth of your project to decisionmakers.

This step-by-step guide to collecting, analyzing,and reporting data in a consistent manner explains how to:

Align your project’s intended outcomes with organizational needs
Collect and measure project participant feedback
Evaluate the application and implementation of projects
Measure business impact and connect improvement directly to your efforts
Develop monetary values to calculate ROI

As budgets shrink and uncertainty grows, business leaders are demanding higher levels of accountability than ever before. Nowhere is this more apparent than in thehealthcare industry.

Use the proven methods of Measuring ROI in Healthcare to make sure your programs and projects will deliver what they promise and convince any decision maker that the organization's money will be well spent on your efforts.

"Kudos to the authors for providing a logical, systematic project evaluation framework that incorporates both financial and key nonfinancial elements affecting aninvestment decision." -- Hank Walker, Partner, Andrade/Walker Consulting, and former CEO of a large Catholic health system

"Measuring ROI in Healthcare covers the most important ROI concepts to understand and gives leaders the necessary tools to be successful in that effort." -- Chris D. Van Gorder, FACHE, President and CEO, Scripps Health, and former Chairman of American College of Healthcare Executives

"Executives, administrators, healthcare managers, advisors, professionals, and practitioners alike will find both the book and the ROI Methodology informative resourceswhen planning major healthcare projects." -- Dr. Catherine S.
