Healthcare is becoming more diversified and complex every day. With existing players acquiring new skills and new entrants trying to disrupt, health systems need continuous, impartial, and accurate readouts on the market. Our research will help you and your health system leaders:

• Anticipate disruptions and business risks.
• Build consensus for strategy development.
• Understand the demographics of the market you serve to identify potential locations for new services and market existing services more effectively.

It's not sufficient to only observe and understand the market. Health systems need to respond to those signals. With no shortage of choices and risks for expansion, research that weighs the relative tradeoffs and success ingredients is key. Our health system research:

• Takes a structured approach to expansion and divestment decisions.
• Assesses emerging care models and shifting sites-of-service so you can understand how leading systems are positioning themselves as agents of change.
• Identifies opportunities for market share growth.

Poor execution can derail even the most innovative strategies. Since healthcare success is contingent on coordination and cooperation across a wider system of assets and partners, continuous system improvement is crucial. Our research looks at how the wider continuum of care gives members the ability to:

• Benchmark performance against peers or compare facilities across your system — and act on shortfalls with impartial expert guidance.
•  Lead teams toward continuous improvement on evergreen efficiency, sustainability, and systemness aims.
• Recruit, engage, and retain the right staff to advance system priorities.
