Healthcare Facilities and Non-Clinical Cost Optimization

Many industries manage their facilities and related expenses better than healthcare. Facilities and Non-Clinical Operations (FANCO) represent about 25% of a health system's expense. Frequently, there are 5-20% annual savings opportunities.

Common domains to consider are:

• Maintenance, Repair, and Operations
• Medical Equipment Management
• Regulatory compliance
• Utility Services
• Hospitality Services
• Business Support (professional services, document management, etc.)
• Equipment and Capital Planning
• Real Estate & Facilities Management
• Revenue Cycle Management
• Banking and Merchant Services
• Insurance
• Utility Bill Administration
• HR Services (employee benefits, training, etc.)
• IT Services
• Warehouse and Distribution Services
• Performance Reporting

A few sample questions to ask of current state:

• Can I see the spend for type of expense and compare across facilities?
• Is the payment of our utility bills automated? Have we taken steps to lower the energy consumption to lower cost?
• Are we getting the best price for MRO equipment (GPO or clearinghouse used for best prices for items such as service contracts, ladders, paint, air filters, etc.)?
• Have I leveraged AI to ensure accurate bill pay (duplicates, excess/erroneous, etc.)? Getting all available incentives through bill pay process? Is it automated??
