Register now for HFMA webinar Wednesday 24th April 12pm, a fireside chat between Dr David Tralaggan and Peter Joyce previous CFO from Alfred Health in Victoria. for a discussion on the importance of quality clinical documentation, especially Peter's view from his previous role at Alfred Health. Quality clinical documentation is indeed crucial for healthcare organizations, as it not only ensures accurate coding and billing but also supports patient care continuity, research, and regulatory compliance. Peter's experience at Alfred Health likely provides valuable insights into how effective clinical documentation practices can impact various aspects of healthcare operations, including financial management, risk mitigation, and overall patient outcomes. Fireside chats like these can offer practical strategies, case studies, and best practices that can be applied in healthcare settings to improve documentation quality and optimize revenue cycles.

We all know the 6 effective components of quality in healthcare: safety, effectiveness, patient-centeredness, timeliness, efficiency, and equity. Recently, I came across a quick 2-minute video about the Triple Aim that adds another layer to how healthcare is viewed on a macro level—impacting hospital systems and even government policies. This framework brings a dynamic perspective, showcasing how achieving better care, improved population health, and reduced costs can influence the challenges faced by smaller systems and the advantages of being part of a larger network. It’s a fascinating addition to the conversation on quality in healthcare. https://lnkd.in/gY6Rdm4F

GREAT event!!! I'm excited to present; hope to see you there! Texas Association of Healthcare Facilities Management (TAHFM) CCI American Society for Health Care Engineering (ASHE) NFPA BASIC INFORMATION: Are you tired of the typical code compliance presentation?  We are too. Compliance with codes and standards is a necessary topic for the Health Care conferences, but that topic can be boring if the presenter is unable to capture the audience’s attention.  with an edgy title of WHAT THE FINDING!?!?, this common code compliance topic quickly gets one’s attention and sets itself apart.  In this interactive discussion, the presenters will go over real findings from recent accreditation surveys that came to us as fire protection engineering consultants. The topics include inconspicuous code sections and new interpretations that brought unexpected citations, and as a result, real frustrations. The current accreditation survey practice uses a “see it – cite it” methodology, and in that moment of frustration, a health care professional has the option to accept the observation as a finding or challenge it. Health care professionals need to respond with professionalism. Our review of the observations will allow the audience to ponder whether they agree, and while utilizing comical tips and tricks for managing one’s code rage, will navigate the audience through those real case studies. Then the presentation will engage the audience to drill down into those observations and draw conclusions on whether the observations are supported by the applicable codes and standards.  Every accreditation survey cycle brings new code interpretations and hot button citations. Through WHAT THE FINDING!?!? health care professionals get their dose of codes and standards in a lighthearted, fun, and engaging way. Health care professionals having responsibilities in Administration, Assessing Risk, Compliance, Healthcare Project Management, and Maintenance & Operations all need exposure to the industry’s latest greatest survey trends. WHAT THE FINDING!?!? delivers it in a fresh and fun way!  

To my cohorts in healthcare, I recommend TAHFM.
