Webinar: Beyond Geography: Scalable Care Models for Access, Workforce and Sustainability, April 29

Rural access challenges are no longer defined by distance. They are driven by workforce shortages, capacity constraints and the need to deliver care differently with limited resources. As demand rises, health systems are rethinking traditional models to extend access without new brick-and-mortar expansion.

In this discussion, leaders from Bon Secours Mercy Health, HonorHealth, Sutter Health, university of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and University of Maryland Medical System will share how they are rebalancing where and how care is delivered. Panelists will outline strategies for deploying distributed, community-based, home-based and virtual models that expand clinical capacity, ease clinician strain and improve access – moving beyond pilots to sustainable, scalable impact.

Attendees will learn:

• The top drivers of today’s rural care gap and early warning signs of strain,
• How leading systems are redefining where care happens,
• Ways to extend workforce capacity while protecting quality and retention, and
• The virtual capabilities required to support clinical decision-making and reduce unnecessary transfers.

Webinar: Smarter Spend, Safer Care: Real-world RTLS Strategies for Asset Management, Staff Safety and Compliance, May 6

Hospital executives face mounting pressure to reduce costs while protecting patients, staff and operations across the enterprise.

In this webinar, hospital leaders will learn how health systems are using Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) to address some of healthcare’s most persistent challenges, from excess equipment spend and rental costs to staff risks and compliance gaps.

It will create clarity on which metrics matter most, how to evaluate performance gains and how RTLS data can support smarter capital, clinical and operational strategies.

Key takeaways include:

• How RTLS reduces capital and rental costs through improved asset utilization,
• Ways that staff protection and infant security technologies mitigate risk and liability,
• How environmental monitoring supports compliance and patient safety.

Webinar: How a California Hospital Cleared its Surgical Backlog in 3 Months, May 14

Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center, a 427-bed community medical center, faced a daunting surgical backlog – and then eliminated it entirely in just 90 days.

In this session, perioperative leaders from PVHMC share how their team used data-driven strategies and technology to overcome fragmented scheduling, manual workflows and communication barriers across multiple facilities.

Attendees will learn how the hospital increased case volumes, improved resource utilization and achieved financial ROI within six months while aligning 83 schedulers across sites.

Hear how PVHMC:

• Transformed paper-based scheduling into streamlined, cross-department workflows across the main OR, outpatient pavilion and GI clinics,
• Used proactive block management to release 142 blocks (46,000 minutes) and fill 47% with additional cases,
• Achieved ROI within six months through FTE savings and increased post-implementation case volumes, and
• Achieved 100% scheduler adoption and aligned 83 clinic schedulers into one cohesive team.

Webinar: Escaping Pilot Purgatory: A Framework for Scaling Agentic AI in Healthcare Organizations, April 30

Agentic AI is a board-level priority for most healthcare organizations, but whether you are still identifying where to start or trying to move a stalled pilot forward, the path to measurable results looks the same.

This session introduces a practical three-part framework for moving from concept to enterprise-wide deployment: a strategic blueprint to identify and prioritize the right workflows, an enterprise architecture that builds on technologies you already have, and a continuous optimization loop to protect and grow the investment.

Using real healthcare workflows including claims processing, prior authorization, and fax management, you will see how organizations redesign their operations and the roles within them, rather than simply digitize them.

You will leave with:

• What differentiates agentic AI from traditional and generative AI in healthcare operations,
• How to identify the right workflows for agentic AI and what it takes to move a pilot into full deployment, and
• How leading health systems are redesigning roles with agentic AI, not just processes.

Webinar: Rethinking Revenue Cycle: From Fragmented Workflows to a Unified Operating Model, May 7

Revenue cycle is often managed as a series of discrete functions, but for clinicians and frontline teams its fragmentation creates daily friction that directly impacts patient care. From prior authorization delays that postpone treatments and procedures to downstream coding and billing rework, disconnected workflows introduce complexity, slow decision-making, and pull clinicians away from the work they trained to do.

As AI becomes more deeply embedded in revenue operations, these fragmented approaches are increasingly exposed. Without a system-level view, AI risks amplifying inefficiencies rather than transforming how work gets done.

Join leaders from Singing River Health for a discussion on why AI-enabled revenue operating systems are becoming essential to improve visibility, reduce rework and help teams move from reactive tasks to proactive operations.

You’ll walk away with:

• How fragmented revenue workflows create hidden clinical and operational costs,
• Why a revenue operating system is different from traditional revenue cycle optimization, and
• Common pitfalls when applying AI to fragmented operations and how to avoid them.

Webinar: A Smarter Reporting Approach for Multispecialty Revenue Cycle Performance, April 23

Multispecialty groups need more than dashboards. They need reporting that helps leaders understand what is changing, where risk is building and which actions will improve performance.

This webinar will explore how analytics is becoming a strategic differentiator in multispecialty RCM operations. The session will offer perspectives on how organizations are moving beyond retrospective reporting to real-time intelligence that helps teams anticipate denials, surface underpayment risk and focus on the factors that drive revenue results.

The discussion will also look at how better integration of clinical, financial and payer data can support more confident decision-making at the executive level. For leaders responsible for performance across multispecialty environments, this session offers a practical framework for building reporting that is more usable, more relevant and more closely aligned to business goals.

Learnings include:

• How to prioritize the right RCM metrics for multispecialty groups,
• How to turn reporting into actionable, insight-driven analytics,
• How to uncover leakage, bottlenecks and variation across specialties, and
• How to equip leaders and reams with data they can actually use.
