QUADRANTONE BENCHMARK - STEWARDSHIP PATH

Responsible cost and quality progress for every manager


The Stewardship Path
  • This path is for engaging every manager in taking personal responsibility for ensuring effective and efficient use of the institution's resources.
  • Participants may be unfamiliar with performance improvement concepts and need further development.
  • HMC channels these managers' efforts towards idea generation and implementation.


The Stewardship Path includes these components:
Stewardship Path Checklist
The Stewardship Path checklist identifies specific checkpoints for each party involved in the Stewardship Path: Senior Team, department managers, HMC Analysts, and HMC Knowledge Managers. These checkpoints ensure that every step has been taken to maximize results, and that all parties are communicating effectively.
Stewardship Path Cycle
The Stewardship Path cycle shows all particpants in the Path how the process of hospital performance improvement with HMC works. Each stage of the cycle includes particular actions, meetings, brainstorming, hypothesizing, and testing, all of which contribute to the success of the Program.
HMC Performance Improvement Resources
HMC supports your stewardship staff in the caretaking of their areas of responsibility, with our comprehensive industry-leading tools:

  • Manager Evaluation
    HMC evaluates each manager's readiness for change. We help you differentiate between your stewardship managers and managers who are best utilized on performance improvement teams.

  • Benchmarks
    HMC's hospital benchmarking tools give your stewardship managers the information they need:
    • Their functional cost excess
    • The target cost position for their function
    • Where their quality needs improvement

    Read more about:
  • Knowledge Assets
    • HMC Idea TreesTM
      HMC IdeaTreesTM help your managers cut costs and improve performance on a particular topic, so your managers easily move forward in thinking about their cost management issues with relevant ideas and experiences from others.
    • The HMC KnowledgeWebTM
      The HMC KnowledgeWebTM helps your managers improve quality and lower costs. Here your managers can research practices that have worked for other hospitals, learn from their peers how to implement those practices, group problem-solve with managers at other facilities, and participate in webcasts and conference calls.

  • Dashboards
    You monitor your stewardship managers' participation in the KnowledgeWeb in your dashboard, so you can act to keep performance improvement efforts moving.
