Webinar: Workplace Violence + $61k Turnover Costs: 1 Strategy to Tackle Both, December 11

Violence against healthcare workers has reached a crisis point and hospitals are paying the price. With workplace violence costing billions and turnover averaging $61,110 per departure, the stakes are too high to treat safety and retention as separate challenges.

Forward-thinking systems are reframing visitor management as a strategic platform, one that reduces violence, builds staff trust and supports broader workforce stability.

In this session, learn how leading hospitals are achieving up to a 64% drop in violent incidents and an 81% reduction in staff reported stress by addressing root causes at the front door.

Key Takeaways:

  • How visitor management influences workforce wellbeing and organizational risk,
  • Scenarios and metrics that resonate with executive stakeholders, and
  • A blueprint for aligning safety strategy with retention goals.

MRHA Webinar: Ending the Transfer of Dialysis Patients, December 4

MRHA Webinar: Ending the Transfer of Dialysis Patients, December 4

Rural hospitals often face no choice but to transfer dialysis patients out of their communities due to a lack of nephrologists or dialysis infrastructure, costing the U.S. healthcare system an estimated $3 billion annually and shifting ongoing care (and revenue) away from local facilities.

This session will feature the Chief Nursing Officer of a critical access hospital who implemented a tele-nephrology program with a team that had no prior dialysis experience. Within the first year4, the hospital successfully cared for over 100 chronic kidney disease patients locally, patients who would have previously been transferred elsewhere.

Learn how this innovative approach not only kept care close to home but also improved hospital finances and community trust.

Whitepaper: The State of the Healthcare Consumer Experience

Eight five percent of healthcare consumers consider perceived safety when choosing a provider – and this assessment starts online, not at the front desk. Outdated listings, unclear communication and disjointed workflows can erode trust before a visit even begins.

Press Ganey’s recent Healthcare Consumer Experience report reveals how safety, digital transparency and social capital drive trust, loyalty and long-term growth. Based on insights from over 6.5 million patient encounters and a national survey, the report offers a strategic roadmap for executives.

Learnings include:

  • Why patient perceptions of safety directly impact likelihood to recommend (LTR),
  • How shared purpose among care teams builds loyalty from within, and
  • Where digital friction undermines trust and how to fix it.

Webinar: Capacity in Crisis: Navigating the One Big Beautiful Bill Era with Data-Driven Agility, December 3

In the One Big Beautiful Bill era, capacity is no longer an operational detail – it’s a financial imperative.

Hospitals that can’t quickly adjust capacity, shorten stays or match resources to fluctuating demand face real financial threats, including margin erosion and potential consolidation. At the same time, insurance coverage loss is driving more patients to emergency departments and safety-net providers, escalating wait times and boarding challenges.

In this session, leaders from University Hospitals, Sutter Health and Scripps Health share how their systems are leveraging real-time data and operational visibility to make faster decisions, reduce lengths of stay and respond more effectively to daily demand shifts.

Key takeaways:

  • Understand the risks of falling behind – from financial strain to competitive pressure and rising demand.
  • Use data to drive smarter decisions on throughput, scheduling, and staffing.
  • Apply tech and operational discipline to keep care accessible, efficient, and resilient.

NRHA Webinar: The ABCs of Rural Wound Care Success: Keeping Patients Local, Improving Outcomes, and Strengthening Margins, December 11

Chronic wounds quietly drain hospital resources, especially in rural communities where distance and staffing make consistent care a challenge. But when one Critical Access Hospital reframed wound care not only as a clinical priority but also as a financial and marketing strategy, the results spoke for themselves: a 92.2% healing rate and a median of 28 days to heal.

In this presentation, Will Evans, RN, an operations leader supporting more than 35 hospital wound programs across the Midwest, and Diane Weiss, RCMS, CPC, CPB, CH

RI, a national expert in revenue integrity and documentation, share what worked, what didn’t, and how those lessons can strengthen care delivery and margins in your own hospital.

Through the ABCs of Rural Wound Care – Advanced Care, Billing and Community Buy-In – attendees will:

  • Identify the key elements that bring wound care services to the next level in a rural setting.
  • Understand how wound-specific billing and documentation improve both reimbursement and compliance.
  • Explore practical ways to build community awareness and staff engagement to support long-term growth.
