State Government Initiatives Influencing Hospitals

Legislation, government agencies, healthcare think tanks, payers, websites, and advocacy groups are all introducing new ways to measure health services. These organizations have their ideas about how to drive increased efficiency and improved productivity in your hospital.

Pressure to respond to initiatives results in the need for better information.

What state initiatives are currently underway?

Select your state   

  • Is your state mandating new quality reporting?
  • Are you confronting Medicaid mandates or a new Medicaid payment methodology?
  • Is a commercial payer in your market changing your reimbursement methodology for your inpatient or outpatient services?
  • Do you see pay-for-performance (P4P) and transparency initiatives such as readmission reporting and potentially preventable complication identification on the horizon?
