Total health care expenditures in the U.S. are approaching $3 trillion per year, comprising 18% of GDP. Per person, the U.S. spends 2.5 times the OECD average for health care, yet the WHO ranks the U.S. health care system 37th in terms of disability-adjusted life expectancy, speed of service, protection of privacy, quality of amenities, and fair financial contribution—tying it with Costa Rica and just ahead of Slovenia and Cuba.

Your institution is probably like most in having a slew of programs in progress: to transition to team-based care, to improve the quality of care, to improve caregiver engagement and patient satisfaction. But how to understand which programs have the greatest value, and how to manage their implementation to assure you realize it?
DAA brings deep experience helping value, create, and validate meaningful change in health care institutions large and small. We’ve been through safe patient mobilization, physician and staff wellness, and creating a NASA-style “mission control center” to name a few.
Whether your institution’s strategic agenda is focused on internal programs or acquisitions (or both!), we can help understand and increase the value of your strategy and show you how to track and validate it to assure it achieves its potential.
