As an executive, you’re constantly finding the best way to balance quality of care and your hospital’s bottom line. Outsourcing services is a common strategy employed by hospitals to better manage this balancing act. Any hospital executive who’s already outsourced understands the sense of relief that takes over after finding a reliable and professional partner.
If you’re currently looking outside for kidney dialysis services, you’re in good company. Currently, kidney dialysis is one of the most commonly outsourced services with 31% of facilities looking externally for solutions. Some of the primary reasons hospitals work with dialysis partners include:
- Simplifying the process
- Decreasing overall cost
- Accessing higher-quality talent
- Reducing the need for internal changes
Here, we’ll explain how Dialysis Systems Management (DSM) delivers on every one of these advantages and why we’re an exceptional partner in dialysis servies.
Greater Flexibility
As hospitals grow larger, flexibility becomes a highly sought after yet rare commodity. This is one of the greatest advantages to working with DSM. We’re the perfect size to offer dynamic services that can be personalized to fit the specific needs of your hospital as well as its physicians and patients. We don’t apply a one-size-fits-all approach like some of our larger competitors. Instead, you can expect to have an active role in important operations and in collaboration with our multi-disciplinary team. DSM is dedicated to making partnerships work for hospitals, not just ourselves.
Lower Cost of Care
At DSM, we understand that hospitals have to think about the overal costs of the care they offer. After all, the quality of care you offer in the future is dependent on your ability to continue operating a successful business. That’s why we make an effort to offer premium care at rates that can help reduce your current expenses. Still, we recognize that even more effective savings happen as changes occur to the manner in which care is offered to patients. We work with hospitals to transition patients to an outpatient setting more efficiently while also making suggestions for more affordable alternatives regarding inpatient renal care.
Top-Level, Local Talent
At DSM, we understand that the efficacy of kidney dialysis relies heavily on the quality of nurses and technicians administering these services. That’s why we only work with highly-talented, local professionals. This proximity and consistency allows for staff members to develop stronger relationships with the physicians and hospital team which results in improved collaboration and longer-term positions. As experts in the field, we haven’t ever had to rely on staffing agencies to source our talent. With a lower overhead structure, DSM is able to provide sufficient resources to the training and development of staff members. This translates into a lower turnover rate and increased employee satisfaction. Our unparalled services have garnered DSM positive recongition from numerous hospital and regulatory surveys.
Unrivated Quality and Safety
The safety of our patients is our number one priority, and we know it’s yours too. To offer this assurance, DSM is consistently involved with the hospital committees of our clients as they pertain to infection prevention, staff training , quality assurance, and more. All of our staff members are trained in best practices and high standards of care. Patients can rest assured any questions will be answered by our educated staff.
