Delivering care outside the hospital offers providers an exceptional opportunity to improve patient outcomes and enhance the patient experience. Hospitals that expand into home healthcare, for example, can reach more patients with better care while tapping into a profitable new revenue stream.
The need to revolutionize the delivery of patient care has never been greater than it is right now. To remain profitable and relevant, healthcare providers have no choice but to rapidly evolve. The urgency to evolve is in large part due to growing populations with increasing needs and a greater expense to care for them.
There are two critical objectives that every healthcare organization must meet to be successful. The primary objective, of course, is to create exceptional patient experiences and the other is to attract new patients. Both objectives contribute to the larger mission of keeping people healthy.
