American Healthcare Solutions' Articles
The consultants and National Advisory Board continually publish both regional and national industry articles. Below are a variety of past and present articles in the following topics:
- Governance Education and Advisory Services
- Hospital & Health Systems Policy and Management
- Supply Chain Management
The challenges facing the healthcare industry today have made the governance process more important than at any other time in history. Most hospital board members are superb and dedicated community servants who do so for the benefit of their community without compensation or personal benefit. This article covers three board requirements that can facilitate or disable an organization: careful selection, avoiding conflicts of interest, and treating the hospital CEO as a partner. If these three principles were adhered to, we would probably not have fifty percent of all U.S. hospitals losing money and the hospital industry would not be suffering a quality and safety crisis of epic proportions.
