Enhancing Quality to Attract Top Talent and Boost Revenue
A large medical center was grappling with multiple anesthesia staffing and quality issues, leading to high turnover, poor leadership, and dissatisfaction among the anesthesia team. The center had 47 physicians, seven of whom were locums (temporary employees), and 23 certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs). With inadequate compensation, an excessive focus on physicians, and strained relationships with hospital administration, surgeons, and nursing staff, the medical center struggled to attract and retain new residents.
Frustrated by the center’s lack of direction and insufficient management, the leadership team sought a fresh perspective and quality expertise in revenue cycle and practice management. They turned to MediDecoder for a consulting project.
