Value is a key focus in healthcare. Patients seek more value in the care they receive, providers in the care they deliver, and organizations from their vendors and partners.
At its core, value in healthcare is a blend of cost and outcomes. In workforce management, value is achieved through sustainable strategies that improve access to care while supporting financial goals. As the shift toward value-based care intensifies, organizations are increasingly focused on aligning quality outcomes with cost-effective solutions.
At Venn, sustainability and value are part of the core mission. Venn has a unique perspective on workforce management bringing a new level of customization and partnership to deliver the results healthcare administrators seek.
Flexibility
Healthcare is constantly evolving. Processes and workflows that were effective just a few years ago may now fall short, causing inefficiencies and diminishing financial returns. To keep pace with these ongoing changes, organizations must remain flexible and adaptable. Venn offers flexible, tailored strategies through a customized panel of suppliers, with options to integrate existing partners. Beyond implementation, Venn continuously evaluates outcomes and adapts to evolving needs.
Enriched Data
To build a sustainable workforce strategy, we need a strong command of data to drive long-term efficiency and resilience. Understanding the metrics on staffing, scheduling and workflows allows for better reporting and greater insight into efficiency. Technology plays an important role in reporting. Venn’s innovative workflows and custom-built technology enable comprehensive data collection that is pulled into reporting, bringing more advanced analysis and informed, agile decision making. With better data, we can better plan for the future and deliver results for patients and communities for years to come.
Optimized Processes
Data leads to new efficiencies and optimized processes that can have a lasting impact on a healthcare organization. Managing locum tenens and contingent staffing through a single platform reduces the time spent searching for talent, freeing up clinicians and leadership to work on tasks directly related to patient care. Additionally, new systems and processes can boost the sustainability and efficiency of an organization’s staffing model.
- Advanced Scheduling—Venn provides innovative scheduling processes and technology. Venn can consolidate availability across staff and vendor providers, broadcast open shifts with full-time, contingent and float pool staff to let them book shifts directly, create staffing models by location, schedule across multiple locations with ease, and share and publish schedules.
- Float Pool Management—Float pools play a vital role in ensuring consistent scheduling. Through Venn’s technology solution, Kimedics, Venn can help manage privileges, broadcast jobs and shifts to clinicians via a mobile app, schedule clinicians easily across privileged locations and track utilization.
By adding flexibility and enhanced data analysis to workforce management, we can optimize processes, creating a sustainable model that brings better value to internal and external stakeholders.
