Patient Share of Care: The Single Metric to Measure Health System Growth Success

Health system executives frequently struggle with how to summarize the success (or lack thereof) of their health systems overall performance and lack a defined metric to align organizational goals around. HSG Advisors developed Patient Share of Care in collaboration with Academic and Community Hospitals to create a single metric measuring the health system’s acquisition of patient lives and retention of those patients within their network of Inpatient, Outpatient and Ambulatory care. This webinar will cover an overview of Patient Share of Care, as well as explore alternatives for how it is calculated and utilized by health systems of varying sizes and geographies.

Learning objectives:

  • What is Patient Share of Care and how is it calculated?
  • What alternatives exist for calculating Patient Share of Care?
  • How are health systems utilizing Patient Share of Care as a single metric of success?
