The Prodacapo Healthcare Solutions:
Cost and Profitability Analysis
Prodacapo enables you to achieve sustainable cost-reductions by understanding the cost per service and patient level costing, as well as the root causes of those costs. Our activity based costing solution enables you to reduce costs and improve resource allocation.
Prodacapo ABM is an activity-based solution that can be used to identify costing that is rooted in the organization and to view costs in a way you have never seen them before.
Typically, healthcare providers identify their costs solely by department. However, patients utilize multiple departments during their treatments. Prodacapo assists your organization to track the cost per patient across the various activities performed in each department. Prodacapo enables service line managers to optimize the patient care process. In addtion, you can use the activity costs to calculate the cost per patient, diagnosis or procedures.
The data can provide the insight to understand why the costs vary for patients with the same diagnosis or procedure. Once know this, you can act proactively to identify opportunities for cost reductions by reducing NVA (non value added) activities and provide the same level of service at a lower cost.
The ABM data can also be utilized to support negotiations with payers to obtain more accurate rates for specific procedures or diagnosis and to understand the trade offs during the negotiation process.
Budgeting, Planning and Simulation
Using Prodacapo you will be able to plan and budget faster and more accurately as the Prodacapo budgeting and planning solution establishes the actual cause-effect relationship between resource consumption and delivered services and treatments.
You can also analyze the impact of a range of scenarios, including changes in volume, services or prices.
Realistic planning requires a bridge between Finance and Operations, regardless of whether the objective is to simulate resource requirements or financial projections.
Balanced Scorecard and Initiatives
A scorecard is used to achive results by communicating on all levels. Prodacapo helps you to develop your scorecard further. By implementing the Prodacapo Balanced Scorecard you can easily measure, follow-up and analyze whether your orginazation is moving into the right direction, or not, and to act accordingly.
While measurement values represent what has already happened, initiatives are established to influence the future. Prodacapo gathers the initiatives and provides ongoing reports, which are linked to measures or critical success factors in the scorecard.
Prodacapo Balanced Scorecard is more than a measurement tool - it's a management toool.
Lean - improve, measure and evaluate the patient care pathway
Prodacapo offers a solution that supports the Lean philosophy (how to manage resources in the long term). The purpose of Lean is to eliminate all factors in the process flow that do not create value for your partients and partners.
Prodacapo enables you to increase the workflow, the quality and the patient focus by defining, measuring, analyzing, improving and controlling all aspects of the processes.
Measuring processes provides a basis for continuous improvement and benchmarking.
