The COVID-2019 crisis is very different than the 2008 recession from a fundraising perspective. 2008 was about collapsing financial markets--so a global pandemic is a very different psychological situation. Read more about health's moment in the spotlight. https://t.co/HQyouw7eNT

Nonprofit hospitals provide considerable service. Yet, the debate continues about the merit of providing nonprofit status...as evidenced by a new NYT editorial. This means health organizations must vigorously explain and provide context around our significant community benefit.
Harvard Business Review: "How can the United States rein in the costs of caring for the sickest 5% of patients, whose treatment consumes half of all health care spending?" We must prioritize a laser-like focus on the discrete and complex populations that heavily consume care.
Health organizations must grapple with identifying focus areas to affect meaningful change in addressing social needs. There are opportunities to harness the power of community partnership to understand the unique challenges of communities, neighborhoods and populations. #SDOH
What values, beliefs and behaviors are part of your organization's rituals and default settings? Culture has significant implications for how we advance our work; so, while culture may sometimes seem amorphous, it's essential to proactively address it.

Building focused, accountable & visionary hospital governing boards is a challenge in today’s turbulent health care environment as boards face difficult choices with burdensome governmental regulation, inadequate reimbursement, increasing competition & shifting community needs.
A nonprofit board is legally and ethically charged to act in the best interest of the nonprofit to advance its mission. This includes being a steward of not only financial assets but also intangible assets such as reputation, relationship with the community and more. #governance
The health care governance lift is increasing in a complex environment shaped by rising consumer expectations and entrance of nontraditional providers, and health care organization leaders must be agile and thoughtful to navigate this new terrain well.
Health care must look beyond our industry to find connections between ideas and unanticipated insights that can be our "aha" moments to spur transformation. We have much to learn from leaders in other industries. #healthcare#innovation
“Health systems need to start understanding and relating to individuals as people rather than as patients. This requires reframing how customers are approached...and...more granular understanding of what they care about, how they behave and the factors that motivate them.” KPMG
Hospitals are vital community anchor institutions, but many new opportunities in health care won't be tethered to a place. Health systems have intellectual capital, scale and access to populations that position them to advance creative solutions to complex programs. #healthcare
