Hyacinth Health Consulting helps clients who purchase health services or deliver health care drive quality from the use of data and the delivery of data-driven health care services.
So much of what is done in health care today is simply transactional, meaning you simply check boxes to ensure you have taken particular actions. While of course transactional models are also concerned about outcomes the outcomes are often short-lived and unsustainable. The health care industry is attempting to move from fee-for-service to fee-for-value but unfortunately the mindset is stuck in the transactional mode. Our goal is to change this mindset and move towards true value.
How do we move towards true value? We help organizations understand what this means in their own environment and for their own populations. We help organizations focus on doing the right thing and creating programs that build relationships designed to SUSTAIN value. We then help organizations with continuous monitoring processes to ensure the focus on value is sustained.
OUR TEAM
We bring a unique perspective as a result of our experience. We have three primary goals guided by our commitment to the health of populations. The first is to help our clients understand the impact of data on the delivery of and receipt of health care services. The second is to leverage that data to focus on what is unique and different for each client. The third is to imbue passion and meaning in the delivery of health care services, understanding that if we do this right sustained changes and desired outcomes will be realized.
