AMBULATORY STRATEGIC PLANNING
When Partners
provides strategic and market planning services to its clients, there
are typically three assessments that are concurrently conducted:
-
A general
review of the market to include:
4
Demographics
4
Payer Mix
4
Breadth and
volume of health services yielded by the market
4
Competition
4
Identification
of new market/service opportunities-
Interviews
with physician leadership, key management, and support staff. -
A detailed
review of financial and operating performance with a comparison to
industry benchmarks/"best practices."
The strategic
planning engagement then begins with the presentation of our findings
from the above assessments. Subsequently, a full day session is
scheduled with physician leaders and management to review the
organization’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in
order to develop alternative, viable strategic, and market positioning
scenarios with specific business strategies identified for each.
Follow-up business plan development services to memorialize the planning
effort are also available as needed to aid implementation of the plan.
