Leaders in delivering high-quality, specialized care while training healthcare professionals and advancing research. Balancing these missions creates unique challenges and opportunities.
AMCs are critical to the US healthcare system. They care for vulnerable populations, provide tertiary/quaternary services, and advance health and healthcare through discovery and by training the nation’s future healthcare workforce. Accomplishing their multiple missions requires creativity, integration of academic and clinical entities, thoughtful stewardship, and a diversity of people and expertise.
During this time of continuous change in healthcare and higher education, AMCs are poised to pursue new opportunities and solidify their place as leading anchor institutions in their communities.
ECG understands the nuanced AMC environment and offers insights grounded in a national perspective. Working with AMCs for nearly 50 years has given us a profound appreciation for the context in which stakeholders operate and the unique pressures they face at each level of the organization: department, institute, entity, enterprise. Drawing on this expertise, we craft and implement innovative solutions that advance the AMC mission.
After a massive effort to integrate 18 clinics into a new health system—including the standardization of front-end workflows to support the migration of all clinics onto one EHR platform—ambulatory leadership at the University of Kansas Health System (UKHS) wanted to assess the state of clinic operations and improve performance. As a world-class academic medical center and destination for complex care and diagnosis, it is a priority of UKHS that patients seeking care at its facilities have timely and convenient access to healthcare services. As such, leadership sought to deploy a deliberate performance improvement (PI) effort to make enhancements to patient access, satisfaction, and clinic throughput. To maintain balance, UKHS also wanted to simultaneously determine ways to improve the satisfaction of its providers and staff providing the care.
ECG partnered with the leadership of the University of Kansas Hospital and the University of Kansas Physicians to design and implement a new structure to manage and grow ambulatory operations in advance of a major integration initiative.
