1 Need to roll out operational cost reductions?
2 VHA has the right tools. As competition increases for reimbursement dollars, health care providers are more pressured than ever to reduce costs while improving clinical outcomes. Selective outsourcing of operational services can help reduce costs and improve operational efficiencies resulting in better clinical outcomes, improved patient satisfaction and enhanced employee satisfaction. Outsourcing can also help health care providers focus staff resources on core competencies like patient care. u Operational support solutions VHA and Novation offer members outsourcing of operational services including food and nutrition, patient transport, housekeeping, laundry and linen services, pharmaceutical and hazardous waste management, document management including scanning, print shop and mailroom services, document shredding, and health care marketing services. Additionally, VHA and Novation offer members assistance with capital equipment planning, budgeting, purchasing, installing, maintaining and disposing as well as financial advisory services, real estate advisory services and master facility planning.

13 Do your staffing needs require emergency care?
14 VHA can help STAT. As competition increases for reimbursement dollars, health care providers are more pressured than ever to reduce costs while improving clinical outcomes and HCAHPS. Proper staffing at all levels in the organization is a critical component of improving overall performance including clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction and employee satisfaction. However, management of staffing can be a challenge, and many health care organizations contract with multiple staffing agencies which prevents them from achieving best pricing. VHA and Novation offer members a variety of staffing and human resource solutions on contract. From physician staffing, nurse staffing, allied health staffing and pharmacy staffing to IT staffing, administrative staffing and executive-level recruitment, members have access to industry-leading staffing and services companies, including the three largest in the industry. Additionally, VHA and Novation offer time and attendance software and relocation and storage services which assist human resource professionals with recruiting top talent and managing day-to-day operations and reporting. u Labor management solutions Accounting and financial staffing Spherion Staffing, LLC The Mergis Group Administrative and clerical staffing Spherion Staffing, LLC Today s Office Allied staffing Club Staffing Cross Country Staffing Resources on Call Billing and collections staffing Spherion Staffing, LLC (SVC974) (SVC974) (SVC974) (SVC974) (SVC942) (SVC1005) (SVC942) (SVC974) IT staffing services Parker Healthcare IT Spherion Staffing, LLC (SVC974) Technisource (SVC974) Learning management systems Mzinga (U0923) PerforMax3, Inc.

15 With one radiologist, I couldn t keep up with a robust schedule. By having an efficient locums radiologist who reads exams in a timely, quality manner, patients didn t have to wait as long for appointments and results, and we were able to increase our patient numbers to where we wanted them to be. And with exam results in the system sooner, we can bill for them sooner as well.
