Umphysicians In Health Care

Improved Essays
In my view, UMPhysicians’ ability to compete on analytics is fairly high among academic healthcare systems. Our ability is directly fed by our position held on these matters – to win out by employing analytics toward an end or two – patient satisfaction, provider satisfaction. Even though our analytical products/tools have been licensed and purchased at rather “vanilla” levels (as described by our COO of Revenue Cycle and others involved in their purchase) our data analysts themselves compensate for any deficiency in a full-or-prime product’s preformatted “bells and whistles” with their own knowledge of formula, expressions, SQL and the like. Our “direct competition” is spread throughout the country and is graded by an external analyst group, …show more content…
Not only do we wish to feed our research and educational departments with revenue to enable them the implementation of their research and education for treatments and cures of diseases, we wish to make money from their ambitions to provide appropriate funding to our medical school itself. Innovation in the medical sciences is our key distinction; and, innovation can only present itself with appropriate funding. UMPhysicians’ commitment to health – where general or specific health concerns are defined and addressed – drives our ambition not only on the senior-level, but on the whole. UMPhysicians is by no means held to the limit of being a Stage 1, 2, or 3 organization. We, as a whole, simply realize the importance of analytics as a means by which to achieve our own commercial value (and/or have the means by which to imprint our own brand upon the public) more so than Stage 1-3 organizations do, at least in being driven to implement such a strategy. We’ve an understanding of and desire for data accuracy, distinction, and internal improvement – while implementing strategy, while redefining strategy therefrom – that, by our current design, distinguishes us from organizations …show more content…
Questions of ourselves and the value that we provide to our patients/clients against others has given us more insight on our own market value than has any other question upon ourselves. We know our own goals, which by public perspective certainly extend beyond simple care – preventive or conditional – but to overall personal health. Our patients’ outcomes matter more to us (our socially representative actors) than profit proper – our mission. Hidden, perhaps by our own marketing outline, is our desire and need to subsist financially as a healthcare provider group who collects upon services rendered. Our external competitive value has been defined by our internal values, which have been offered to our community by our very own nature – innovation and understaning… My company, UMPhysicians, can compete externally on analytics more so in no other way than to simply pay attention to its surroundings and internal nature for recognition in innovation and exploration as a founder in such areas as it professes to pioneer. May characteristics be damned, UMPhysicians must carry herself forward with the understanding by others that our methodology, as driven by analytical confirmation, is the most modern and best approach to modern

    These essentials focus on clinical scholarship, informational technology utilization, interprofessional collaboration, and population health management (American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), 2006). Through application of these essentials, teamwork, collaboration, integration of systems and technology applications can be combined with the organizational goals, patient outcomes, reduction of waste, and quality improvements that are fiscally responsible (Aroh, Colella, Douglas, & Eddings, 2015). By utilizing the educational essentials in every aspect of the healthcare setting, the DNP can recognize what while quality comes as a cost, the return can be beneficial over the course of time, which may lead to bigger returns in VBP (Waxman,…

    As medical debt rises and the demand for healthcare reform increases, it has become imperative now more than ever to learn about the factors that affect the healthcare industry. The application of business to the healthcare industry enables healthcare professionals to carry a broader viewpoint on the mechanics and functioning of the healthcare industry. Rather than just using my core science classes and internships to develop my point of view and learn about the healthcare industry, through the certificate program, I aim to broaden my scope of study and learn about the systems that affect the structure and functions of healthcare. Interning at private and public practices, learning about insurance billing systems, I saw how the U.S healthcare…

    Values of the organization along with its mission and beliefs are also key to stakeholder and business success. Indicators such as quality access, innovation and prevention are all prime factors for a health care business to be successful (Wicks & Keevil, 2014). With this change in business sense, viewing health care as a basic right where medicine is not bought and sold like previous pay for service models, but rather a mutual understanding where stakeholders involved understand it is not just what is due to them, but also what their responsibilities are to other stakeholders as well (Wicks & Keevil,…

    There is an article written titled “Why is the laboratory an afterthought for managed care organization?” In this article the author Forsman discusses how the market has played a major impact in healthcare and its delivery and that though these changes have occurred or may continue to change, the laboratory should not look at these changes in a negative light. Forsman goes on to breakdown statically the role of the laboratory by explaining how the laboratory only makes up 5% of the hospital’s budget. This particular number is why the laboratory is not looked at as a priority because the laboratory is just a small piece of a larger picture. However, 60-70% of all critical decision-making such as admittance, discharge and medication is based solely off the laboratory results (Forsman…

    There are several business principles related to patient and system costs in health care that are needed to maintain safe, quality, patient-centered care that is fiscally sound. For this discussion, I will put myself in the shoes of a nurse manager, director of nursing, Chief Nursing Officer, or business owner and consider three of the principles from the Greg Fisher Power Point (2008). The principles I will examine are: 1) decide what makes you different; 2) manage employees; and 3) set goals. The reason why I selected these three business principles is that they appear to me to be a good place to start the groundwork for any business model, including the field of health care.…

    Executive Summary The premise of this analytical assessment was to evaluate how Pfizer uses analytics as it relates to decision making. The assessment focuses on the organization as a whole, with interviews from two colleagues in two different business units: Development Operations (GIP) and the Business Analytics & Insight (GEP). Overall, it is evident that Pfizer, as a consequence of being a heavily regulated pharmaceutical industry, must use scientific data to ensure that the products we make are safe and effective. My assessment concluded that, as expected, there are many moving parts to getting a product out in the market and that Pfizer is using analytics as a competitive advantage. The assessment also concluded that there is room for…

    In her article, “Science Isn’t Broken,” Christie Aschwanden- a science and health journalist and recipient of a Santa Fe Institute Journalism Fellowship in Complexity Science- discusses the consequences resulting from the recent lack of peer-review, the portrayal of the scientific community due to these effects, and the true nature of research. According to Aschwanden (2015), one of the prominent contributors to the public’s lack of confidence in science is statistical manipulation and biases. This relates to O’Neil’s Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy.
