Webinar: How Ochsner Health is aligning Perioperative Performance, Supply Chain, & Clinical Variation, June 4

The perioperative environment is one of the largest untapped sources of financial and operational improvement in health systems – and most organizations still aren’t capturing it.

Unwarranted clinical variation, misaligned supply chain strategy and siloed decision-making quietly erode margins without triggering obvious alarms. The systems pulling ahead are the ones connecting data, physicians and finance around a shared operational picture.

Ochsner Health is one of them. In this webinar, leaders from Ochsner will share how they’re approaching perioperative optimization through advanced analytics, physician engagement and cross-functional collaboration – and what it takes to translate data into decisions that actually move margins.

You’ll leave with:

  • How to identify the key drivers of perioperative margin leakage in your organization,
  • Strategize to reduce clinical variation through physician alignment and data transparency,
  • How supply chain optimization directly affects financial and clinical performance, and
  • Approaches to building collaboration across medical, operational and finance teams.

Baptist Memorial Health Care is already doing this work. In just two years, the system scaled from 4,000 to more than 50,000 annual reviews, raised its average rating from 4.4 to 4.7 stars and earned Best in Class reputation awards for 400-plus locations. Their experience offers a practical roadmap for health systems ready to take reputation strategy seriously.

Join this conversation to learn what it takes to turn patient feedback into a competitive advantage.

  • How Baptist Memorial Health Care built a systemwide reputation strategy that delivered measurable results,
  • Why reviews and patient sentiment are now critical to visibility in AI-powered search,
  • How to position your organization as the top choice when patients use conversational AI to find care, and
  • Actionable steps to operationalize feedback collection and strengthen patient trust at scale.

Hospitals are under increasing pressure to expand behavioral health access while managing emergency department congestion, inpatient capacity and limited psychiatric coverage.

Many organizations have adopted telepsychiatry to reduce boarding and improve access, yet leaders often struggle to evaluate which partners can meet hospital-level standards for quality, reliability and integration. Without a clear framework, critical gaps in credentialing, response times or workflows can be missed.

This whitepaper offers a practical checklist outlining 20 criteria to guide telepsychiatry partner evaluations. It helps hospital leaders move beyond surface features to assess long-term clinical, operational and financial fit.

Key takeaways include:

  • How virtual behavioral health services can improve access and reduce ED bottlenecks,
  • Quality, credentialing and governance criteria leaders should assess,
  • Operational and technology requi8rements that support timely consults, and
  • Reporting and financial considerations that impact sustainability.

Webinar: Getting Documentation Right the First Time, May 7

Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) teams play a critical role in ensuring diagnoses are accurate, supported, and reflective of the care delivered. But as charts grow more complex and payer scrutiny of retrospective documentation review increases, changes to documentation that happen after the clinical moment are becoming harder to defend – increasing risk of denials, delaying reimbursement, and driving rework for CDI teams and clinicians. The solution: using technology to get documentation right the first time, to get reimbursed the first time.

Join Regard’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. David Kirk, and CDI leaders as they explore what it takes to get documentation right the first time. This session examines how using technology to recommend diagnoses supported by clinically relevant evidence from the chart, during care delivery – reduces avoidable queries, strengthens defensibility, and lets CDI teams focus their expertise where it matters most: clinical validation, quality alignment, and denial prevention.

Webinar: Reimbursement at Risk: Rethinking Water Safety in the OBBBA Era, May 28

April 28, 2026

Webinar: Reimbursement at Risk: Rethinking Water Safety in the OBBBA Era, May 28

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act has enacted more than $1 trillion in Medicaid reductions over the next decade. As reimbursement tightens and patients arrive later with more advanced conditions, the cost of preventable, non-reimbursable infections is climbing.

Waterborne pathogens – including pseudomonas, legionella and mycobacteria – are a significant and often underestimated driver of hospital-acquired infections. Yet many hospitals are still operating under decades-old water quality standards that experts say may no longer reflect the current evidence, tolerating positivity thresholds that growing research suggests are too permissive.

This session cuts through the complexity. Water safety experts walk through the root causes of poor water quality, the shifting standards landscape and what a prospective approach to waterborne pathogen management looks like in practice.

You will learn:

  • How standards for waterborne pathogens are evolving and what that means for your facility,
  • Root causes of poor water quality and their clinical and financial consequences,
  • Methods hospitals are using to move from reactive to prospective water treatment, and
  • How better water management can lower long-term treatment costs and reduce infection risk.
