A framework for service distribution

Weigh different service characteristics to find the right distribution

Healthcare leaders need to make service distribution decisions to optimize growth, quality, and cost goals. However, those goals often conflict. For example, centralizing a service at one or a few sites increases site volumes and specialization, contributing to higher quality. But dispersing a service enables convenient access, contributing to growth. When considering whether to centralize or disperse, system leaders need to balance goals against one another.
