St. Joseph Health System
Health care reform is driving transformational changes in how the industry delivers and measures performance throughout the value stream. For premier providers of patient care like St. Joseph Heritage Healthcare (SJHH), an ambulatory ministry of the Saint Joseph Health System in California, this translates to an increase in overall workloads and a major shift in payment and service models towards ambulatory instead of acute care. To offset the resulting revenue impact, the support organizations inside health care provider organizations will have to remain nimble, more efficient and increase productivity.
