Surveillance Business Case: Meet Reimbursement and Reporting Needs

Vladimir Tikhtman MHSA, Clinical Solution Advisor, Truven Health Analytics. In today’s healthcare environment, the need for new reporting and documentation capabilities is growing, including data retrieval from multiple sources, the ability to read non-discrete fields, and the electronic aggregation of data. This need stems from an increasing pressure to improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and maximize CMS reimbursements as a part of quality initiatives like value-based purchasing and the readmission reduction program. Vladimir demonstrates the business impact of these imperatives using a financial modeling tool developed by an independent fiscal health team and explains how you can scale your investments to stay in good financial health as you work toward achieving quality improvement goals and regulatory compliance.
