Why Finance?
Margin vs. Mission One of the most important
characteristics of ANY business is its financial performance & condition
Financial Analysis evaluates a business’s financial
performance & condition Does it have the financial capacity to
fulfill its mission? By assessing the financial health of
our hospital we can identify strengths & weaknesses
The principal of Stewardship
The Quality Connection The financial impact of quality on
your hospital Cost of new technology and the
evolving “standard of care” Adverse events Lawsuits, insurance claims and
insurance cost Community image – consumer
assessment Payer impact – Never Events,
credentialing & payment reform Survey agencies Publicly reported quality data
The evolving relationship between quality and cost in
health care
The “Cost of Quality” - 1990 “…costs and quality of care cannot
be separated from each other. Higher quality often requires increased expenditures. When this occurs, decision makers must reconcile the desire for higher quality with the desire for cost control.”
–Kovener & Neuhauser, 1990
The “Cost of Poor Quality” - 2005 Process improvement & resulting
reduction in cost, LEAN, Six Sigma “Although health care differs in many
ways from manufacturing, there are also surprising similarities: Whether building a car or providing health care for a patient, workers must rely on multiple, complex processes to accomplish their tasks and provide value to the customer or patient. Waste – of money, time, supplies or good will – decreases value…”
--Institute for Healthcare Improvement (2005)
The evolving relationship between quality and cost in
health care
The Quality Connection
High Cost does not mean High Quality
“Despite having the most costly health system in the world, the United States consistently underperforms on most dimensions of performance compared with other industrialized countries…”
–Karen Davis, President, Commonwealth Fund

Statistical Reporting
Hospital revenues tend to be volume driven and revenues are well demonstrated with statistics
Statistical reports should compare actual statistics to budget for current period and year-to-date
One should see a reasonable correlation between variances in statistics and corresponding categories of revenue

The Balance Sheet
The Statement of Financial Position or Balance Sheet is a snapshot of the
financial position of the organization at a specific point in time. It can tell us a lot
about the financial health of the business.

patient receivables Inventory Prepaid Expenses
Long Term Property Plant & Equipment – at cost less

CASH – What really keeps the hospital
ticking!
The importance of monitoring cash flows
While Revenues and Expenses offer an excellent assessment of the financial outcome of operations, the bottom line is not directly indicative of real-time financial performance, since most revenues are not collected at the time of service, most expenses are not paid when incurred and non-cash expenses, while important, do not have a direct impact on our financial resources

Accounts Receivable Analysis
Increased Accounts Receivable is a drain on cash flow
Optimizing the “Revenue Cycle” means capturing charges, generating bills and collecting from payers as quickly as possible, so that the resulting cash can be used to fund operations
Accounts cannot be collected until they are billed

Aging of Accounts Receivable Unbilled Accounts Receivable Gross Days A/R Outstanding w/ prior
month comparison Revenue and Revenue Day Equivalent
Days Revenue in Accounts Receivable Outstanding
Total Accounts Receivable / Average Revenue per day
This is a measure of how many days it takes to collect patient accounts, on average
This will vary by payer and type of service Medicare will pay a clean bill in 14 days Private Pay nursing home accounts are
generally paid in advance Self pay bills may take several months
to a year (or more) to be paid off

Ratio Analysis
Ratio Analysis
Ratio analysis is a technique used in both financial statement and operating indicator analyses
It combines values from the financial statements (and elsewhere) to create single numbers that Have easily interpretable financial
significance Facilitate comparisons
Using Ratios
A single ratio value has little meaning One point in time may not be
representative We can’t judge whether it is good or
bad Two techniques are commonly used
Trend – Time series analysis Comparative – Cross Sectional analysis
with comparisons to industry benchmarks and peers
Ratios help to identify Questions to ask Issues to address Problems to solve
They do not necessarily provide Answers Explanations Solutions*That’s the job of management!
Profitability Indicators
Measure the ability to generate the financial return required to replace assets, meet financial obligations, meet increases in service demands, and compensate investors (or in the case of a nonprofit, build reserves for stability & growth Total margin, cash flow margin, return
on equity, operating margin, debt service coverage
Liquidity Indicators
Measure the ability to meet cash obligations in a timely manner Current ratio, Days cash on hand, Days
Revenue in Accounts Receivable, Days in Accounts Payable
Capital Structure Indicators
Measure the extent of debt and equity financing Equity financing, debt service coverage,
long-term debt to capitalization
Sources of Comparative Information

Beyond the numbers…
Understand your Hospital’s Operating environment and its impact on the financial picture External environment – economic,
regulatory, human resource, payers, competition, investment performance, donor support
Internal environment – management control, staff vacancies, case mix, payer mix, physician practice patterns
Environmental Analysis (cont)
Retrospective How do environmental factors help to
explain past financial performance? Proactive
Anticipating change in the environment and its associated impact on future performance
Taking action to minimize negative influences and maximize opportunities presented by positive change
Planning!
The Budget
A budget is an operating plan expressed in dollar amounts that acts as a road map to carry out an organization’s objectives, strategies and assumptions.
Translating operating plans and assumptions into their expected financial results ensures those plans and assumptions are financially realistic
Budget Process
Based on the Strategic Plan Allows adequate time for staff and
board input, review and approval Has some basis in current year’s
results Provides for department level
involvement and accountability

Current Trends in Healthcare Finance &
Reimbursement A growing emphasis on “VALUE” “Value is defined as the relationship
of quality to cost. High quality at inappropriately high cost does not produce value. Likewise, low quality at low cost also does not produce value. Relentlessly driving toward both high quality and low cost is what produces value. Given our current environment, it is critical for healthcare organizations to make achieving value a key strategy.”
--Dick Clarke, HFMA President (2009)
Current Trends in Healthcare Finance &
Reimbursement Consumer Driven Health Care Empowered consumers Widespread availability of
information Third party payer scrutiny – RAC
Audits Never Events
From the OIG Adverse Events Report
Studied representative sample data in one month of 2008 to extrapolate annual estimates
1 in 7 Medicare beneficiaries admitted to a hospital is harmed
Adverse events add $4.4 Billion to government health care cost annually and contribute to the deaths of 180,000 patients each year
Most adverse events are preventable
Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act
(PPACA) Healthcare Reform using
“Healthcare Payment Reform” as incentives
Intended to drive a shift from “fragmented care” to “coordinated care”
Trends in Healthcare Finance & Reimbursement
Payment for Outcomes vs. Services “You may regard as a Utopian dream
my hope to see all our hospitals devoting a reasonable portion of their funds to tracing the results of the treatment of their patients and analyzing these results with a view to improving them. You may prefer to ponder over the voluminous discussions now appearing in our journals and in the lay press about the pros and cons for state medicine and who is to pay the cost of medical care. I read these discussions, but they seem to be futile, until our hospitals begin to trace their results.”
--E. A. Codman, 1935
Trends in Healthcare Finance & Reimbursement
Reduced ability to “cost shift” With health care reform, more people
will have coverage under government programs which traditionally do not cover the full cost of care, due to the expansion of coverage and the aging of the population
Coverage expansion & access to services Shortage of primary care providers Adequate supply of facilities & services
“Changing Economics in an Era of Healthcare Reform”
“As health systems prepare for healthcare reform, they are focusing significant resources on developing accountable care organizations and medical homes and on preparing for bundled payments and population-based reimbursement. However, current economic trends combined with an analysis of the impact of key healthcare reform initiatives will require health systems to take significant cost out of their systems to maintain positive financial performance. Few organizations have the culture or the expertise to implement a cost-reduction effort of this magnitude.”--Nathan S. Kaufman, Managing Director, Kaufman Strategic Advisors, LLC (Journal of Healthcare Management, January/February, 2011)
