Building Patient Loyalty and Maximizing Financial Performance in a Competitive Market
Kyle Wilcox, VP of Finance and Business Development, Grinnell Regional Medical Center Margene Holak, Consultant, Craneware Program Description: In today’s healthcare environment, patients increasingly act like consumers, “shopping” for providers based on perceived quality and cost just as they do with any other commodity. This shift has increased motivation for hospitals and health systems to adopt a consumerism-approach to attract and retain patients. In this session, presenters will share how Grinnell Regional Medical Center implemented technology to completely review all charges – enabling the organization to build a competitive pricing strategy. Two years after implementing an automated chargemaster solution, Grinnell Regional Medical saw significant financial gains, including a 25% yield on price increases. Attendees will learn how to leverage chargemaster data to create a comprehensive, competitive market-based pricing strategy that can generate significant financial returns and increase patient loyalty.
