While workforce safety, capacity constraints, AI strategy and equitable care delivery remain top priorities across healthcare, some organizations are moving faster than others. Their advantage isn’t unlimited resources or ideal conditions, it’s a disciplined approach to execution, grounded in cross-functional alignment, targeted technology investments and a willingness to innovate within existing constraints.
Below are five resources from Becker’s Healthcare featuring perspectives from leaders at Catholic Health, University Health, Lee Health and more on what’s moving the needle.
1. Workplace safety strategies 3 health systems are prioritizing now
Workplace safety has moved from a compliance issue to a strategic imperative affecting retention, patient experience and operational continuity. In this session, leaders from three health systems detail the safety strategies they’re prioritizing today, from systemwide governance to frontline response and prevention.
A valuable watch for CHROs, nursing leaders and operations executives building safer environments for both staff and patients.
2. How University Health and Lee Health are creating capacity without adding beds
Hospitals are facing the same equation from every direction — rising expenses, climbing patient demand and a shrinking workforce. The traditional response of adding beds, staff or new towers is no longer economically feasible for most systems. This whitepaper, drawing from executive sessions at the Transform Hospital Operations Summit at Becker’s 16th Annual Meeting, explores how an AI-enabled “central nervous system” for hospital operations is helping leaders unlock capacity that already exists within their walls. Inside, San Antonio-based University Health details a 46.1% reduction in average ED boarding time and Fort Myers, Fla.-based Lee Health shares how it achieved an 8.8x return on investment in OR access.
Essential reading for COOs, CMOs and operations executives looking to expand capacity without expanding the building.
3. How Catholic Health is redefining value through high reliability and enterprise alignment
Value-based care often gets framed as a payment model, but the systems making progress treat it as an operating discipline. In this webinar, Catholic Health leaders share how they’re redefining value through high reliability and enterprise alignment by connecting clinical quality, operational consistency and financial performance into a single, coordinated approach.
Recommended for CMOs, COOs and quality leaders looking to translate value-based ambitions into measurable operational change.
4. From AI strategy to enterprise impact: A CFO and CIO conversation
AI strategies often live in slide decks while enterprise impact stays elusive. This webinar brings the CFO and CIO perspectives into the same conversation examining how health systems are aligning financial and technology leadership to move from AI ambition to AI execution and what it takes to translate strategy into measurable results across the enterprise.
Worth watching for CFOs, CIOs and senior leaders responsible for making AI investments pay off.
5. Integrating PrEP into primary care: A system-level approach to HIV prevention, outcomes and equity
HIV prevention has long sat at the intersection of clinical practice, public health and equity but most health systems still struggle to operationalize PrEP at scale. This webinar examines what a system-level approach to PrEP integration in primary care actually looks like, with a focus on outcomes, access and reducing disparities across patient populations.
Particularly relevant for primary care leaders, clinical executives and population health teams focused on closing prevention gaps.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
