The situation

The critical access system included two hospitals and eight outpatient clinics serving 30,000 patients.

My role, and the people behind the work

I served as Clinic Administrative Director during two periods with the system.

These were system results, delivered with the clinical and administrative teams across the hospitals and outpatient clinics.

What changed

  • Used the Sweet 16 initiative to increase provider capacity.
  • Worked on the system's clinical accounts receivable performance.

The results

  • Provider capacity increased 187.5% in six months.
  • Clinical days in accounts receivable fell 61.4% in four months.
