What Is a Hospital Near-Death Experience?
Can a hospital have a near-death experience? If so, what would that look like?
For Haywood Regional Medical Center, “near-death” took the form of involuntary termination from Medicare. This traumatic event caused the hospital to lose physicians, morale, and its previously good reputation, not to mention significant amounts of money. But, with quick corrective action and strong leadership, the medical center regained its Medicare certification and received a second chance to thrive.
“Hospital Near-Death Experience: How Medicare Termination Can Push Your Hospital to the Brink of Closing,” the new whitepaper from Compass Clinical Consulting, tells the story of Haywood Regional Medical Center, examining some of the factors that brought this hospital to the brink of collapse and the swift, strategic action that brought it back to life.
