Changing patient expectations and emerging cost-efficient care initiatives are driving a trend toward “convenience care” in a rapidly evolving, competitive environment. Health plans and governmental payers are seeking lower acuity and lower cost sites of care, while patients are demanding services that fit their lifestyles. This trend is leading to new services, and as they gain traction in a value-based care marketplace, the impact on hospital financial managers is notable. New referral patterns lead to new revenue streams and new cost categories, which demand new capital planning approaches to ensure a flexible delivery system going forward. Explore these trends and their implications so you’re prepared to respond.
