"Meeting Community Needs and Your Business Objectives"
The decision to select an outside company, to outsource a specific project or to contract for management services, may depend on several factors, both internal and external to the organization. This is particularly true now when the national economy is causing hospitals and other healthcare providers to more carefully monitor their allocation of resources, and to quantify the return on their investment.
"Meeting Community Needs and Your Business Objectives"
The decision to select an outside company, to outsource a specific project or to contract for management services, may depend on several factors, both internal and external to the organization. This is particularly true now when the national economy is causing hospitals and other healthcare providers to more carefully monitor their allocation of resources, and to quantify the return on their investment.

Here are four questions that we suggest you consider:

  1. Does a specific behavioral health issue or program require intensive review?
  2. Are specialty resources and experience available in-house?
  3. Could available in-house resources better address other priorities?
  4. Would an objective, outside perspective provide a broader set of options?

 

The CawleyJohnson Group offers a flexible approach in responding to the unique needs of hospitals and other healthcare facilities who currently provide behavioral health services, but who may be seeking to improve clinical, operational, or financial performance. We also work with providers who may be considering the development of a behavioral health program.
 

The consistent provision of quality, financially responsible behavioral health services continues to challenge even the best hospitals and healthcare systems. Some of the more frequent issues include:
 


  • Do you have a clear vision and plan for your behavioral health service?
     
  • Are you satisfied with the financial results?
     
  • Are you managing labor productivity and staffing appropriately?
     
  • Do you have confidence in the administrative and clinical program team, including the psychiatrist(s)?
     
  • Does the service meet Joint Commission, CMS and State accreditation standards?
     
  • Does the service meet internal quality assurance and risk management protocols?
     
  • Are you able to track referral data in a precise and productive manner?
     


If you answered "no" to one or more of these key questions,
we may be able to help.
