Community Partnerships: Strengthen Relations
Harnett Health: Our Story
• Harnett Health is Harnett County; we are your friends and neighbors
• Strategic expansion; new footprints• Significant charity care commitment; our heritage• Increasing visibility wherever we can be• Huge local asset for a rural county• Building healthier communities• Local primary and secondary care access• Everyone needs a family doctor
Harnett Health: Our Challenges
• Need for greater transparency• Increasing cost of operation while maintaining
affordable cost of care and value• Greater access means greater capital investment• Understanding community needs• Unique and complex business model– competition drives cost up, not down– normal consumer psychology doesn’t apply– consumer prices not set by the hospital or the market– payment made by third parties, insurance or government – no one turned away; community “safety net”
• Preventive care vs. illness care• Preserving not-for-profit status
– margin reinvested, not directed to shareholders– no huge reserves, only what’s needed
• Political realities– continuing reimbursement cuts, federal and state– threatened loss of tax exemption– lack of Medicaid expansion– vulnerability of Certificate of Need– inadequate support for mental health care– perception of large, untapped cash reserves
Harnett Health: Our Challenges
• Focus on population health, healthier communities– means assuming financial risk, risk for health status
• Much greater transparency, community engagement– if Harnett Health assumes risk for diseases caused by social
issues, then we have to engage with the community on those issues
• Success is prevention/chronic care support• Achieving lower costs, higher quality, greater access,
better efficiency• New partnerships/collaboration will be necessary• Strengthen Campbell partnership
Harnett Health: Our Future
Harnett Health: Our Future
• Succeeding under reimbursement changes from the old fee-for-service model to pay-for-performance
• Adapting more of the traditional “public health practices” to health system design – large scale health intervention strategies– social psychology of health and health behaviors– predictive health analytics, large data sets– population health surveillance, assessment, evaluation
• Population Health Officer as senior-level executive?• “We want a health system that keeps people out of
the hospital” (D. Berwick, 2013).
