Labor Management Expert Services

Industry-expert insight and guidance to optimize your labor management program
Type: Professional Service ID: 3784 Revised:  2021-Jul-23

Health Catalyst’s Labor Management Expert Services facilitate a strategic and data-driven approach to understanding and improving healthcare labor costs, provider productivity, process efficiency, and workforce planning. Services can be tailored to organization needs and may include assessment and opportunity analysis, strategy deployment, expanded education services, or focused labor management consulting.

The problem

Labor costs are the single largest expense item for most hospitals, often exceeding 60% of net patient revenue. Organizations need to manage their labor spend to keep pace with revenues—but without a holistic view and a strategic approach, many leaders struggle to make changes that accommodate the complexity of healthcare and work to the benefit of staff and patients.

Our approach

With deep experience in healthcare labor, analytics, governance, and process improvement, our team partners with you to devise and implement strategies, structures, and practices for short-and long-term labor management success.

Central to our approach is a focus on identifying the data and metrics you need to understand your system’s labor needs, resources, costs, and efficiency. With decades of experience in healthcare finance and operations, our consultants deliver guidance to assemble and interpret timely and holistic views of labor utilization and productivity—revealing trends, variances, and drivers that help you manage labor more proactively and strategically.

Benefits and components
