    This firm represents St. David’s South Austin Medical Center (the “Hospital”) in the above-referenced matter. In your June 29, 2016 letter, you contend that the hospital lien filed in regard to the services your client received at the Hospital’s emergency department (“ED”) on March 17, 2016 was fraudulent because Mr. Smith was never “admitted” to the Hospital. Be advised that the Hospital disagrees with your position, as it is a misapplication of Chapter 55 of the Texas Property Code. Section 55.002(a) states that for a lien to attach, the individual must be “admitted to a hospital.” Importantly, the term “admitted to a hospital” is not limited or restricted in Chapter 55 to any particular type of admission, such as an inpatient admission, ED admission, or an outpatient admission.…

    Your healthcare organization, Harris Memorial Hospital, needs to look at both “hard” and “soft” savings when considering a system’s return on investment. Today’s presentation we will take a deeper look at the soft returns when implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system. It is important to remember that indirect savings are usually applied to processes not easily measured and, thus, quantifying savings can be difficult to see at first. We will look at the three steps in documenting soft returns: (1) identifying a process improvement opportunity, which is improved time/efficiency; (2) create a formula to calculate the benefits; (3) and determine the costs of the process and the net benefits. In order to determine the return benefits from EHR implementation, it is necessary to establish baseline metrics that can be used as a guideline for measuring success after the implementation.…
