In this episode of the MGMA Ask an Advisor Podcast, hosts Daniel Williams and Christy Good dive into the importance of network utilization KPIs and how they can be leveraged to enhance patient satisfaction and operational efficiency. They discuss the critical metrics to track, the benefits of monitoring network utilization, and strategies for implementing cost-effective solutions, even for smaller practices.

Key Points:

  1. Understanding Network Utilization KPIs: Appointment wait times, referral patterns, resource allocation, and care coordination are key metrics that directly impact patient satisfaction.
  2. Identifying the Right Metrics: Practices should focus on KPIs that directly influence patient experience, such as appointment availability, referral completion rates, and post-discharge follow-ups.
  3. Benefits of Monitoring Network Utilization: Tracking appointment availability and wait times can improve access to care, while monitoring referral patterns and care transitions can enhance care coordination and reduce fragmented care.
  4. Using Data to Personalize Care Plans: Analyzing patient utilization history and treatment outcomes can inform more tailored care plans, leading to improved satisfaction and reduced complications.
  5. Strategies to Reduce Hospital Readmissions: Timely follow-up appointments and additional post-discharge support for high-risk patients can significantly lower readmission rates.
  6. Challenges and Solutions: Lack of integration between systems and concerns about data security and patient privacy are common challenges, but can be addressed through robust encryption, access controls, and leveraging MGMA's benchmark tools and resources.

Resources:

  • MGMA DataDive: A comprehensive benchmarking tool that provides detailed metrics on network utilization, enabling practices to compare their performance against industry standards.
