Moneyball in Healthcare – Actionable Insight, Transparency, and Clarity

Simply stated, assets are both part of the problem and the solution in healthcare today. On one side, they provide a tremendous amount of clinical value and service revenue for health systems; however, on the other, they also consume an enormous amount of capital and operating expenses.

What is the utilization rate of our assets?
What is the capacity and where does it exist?
How do I better understand our cost structure?
How do I find ways to manage the cost structure and better align it with productive outputto produce improved asset and system margins?
