Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, hospitals and healthcare systems have endured significant changes, ranging from volume disruption to supply issues, from financial challenges to government subsidies, and from employee burnout to increasing turnover. Impacts from this public health crisis are still causing shockwaves throughout the industry as organizations take action to recover and hospital leaders work to place their facilities on a new path for operational and financial improvement. In various board rooms and on virtual meeting platforms across the country, healthcare executives are now reworking long-range strategic plans, redefining goals, and establishing future targets to promote sustainability.

Before establishing a relationship with ALTIUS, our labor expenses were beyond the benchmarks for similar sized medical systems. ALTIUS provided Radiology with a proven productivity labor management system by working with us, human resources, and finance to carefully evaluate our operational trends. Subsequent to the evaluation, ALTIUS and Radiology created accurate objectives and targets. The operational dashboard and bi-weekly reports created a consistent monitoring management program. Today, the Radiology department has demonstrated a substantial improvement and we value our partnership with ALTIUS.
