267: Care variation reduction: A $100B opportunity
Description
Health systems know they need to pull out all the stops when it comes to improving operational efficiency, given their financial climate. That doesn’t necessarily mean they need entirely new strategies — but they do need to make the most of the tried-and-true tactics.
Care variation reduction (CVR) has been part of the operational excellence playbook for years. The opportunity for efficiency and cost savings through CVR is massive—about $100B nationally — but the vast majority of health systems have not been able to unlock its full potential.
This week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board provider operations expert Isis Monteiro to break down what’s getting in the way of realizing that $100B, and how leaders can start to move the needle.
