OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE BY RETHINKING HOSPITAL HR FOR AMBULATORY VENTURES

Most health systems have top-notch human resources professionals with experience across the complexities of hospital recruiting, hiring, employee relations, and benefits. But as hospitals move more services to outpatient settings, new HR strategies are needed to support ambulatory ventures. Hospital executives thinking about converting a hospital outpatient department (HOPD) to a stand-alone ambulatory surgery center (ASC) or forming a joint venture ASC with area physicians need an HR solution that matches the speed, efficiency, and specialization that are central to the ASC business model. In many cases, the best solution is an outsourced HR resource.
