Maximising capacity and margins for private hospitals

Release hospital capacity
Release capacity to enable more availability for high risk treatment within the hospital setting, letting private hospital activity grow without a bricks-and-mortar expansion.
Studies consistently show average length-of-stay reductions of 1–4 days and no increase in adverse events. (aha.orgbmjopen.bmj.com)
Lower the cost of care, improve payment metrics
Treating patients at home reduces the full-episode cost curve. Home-hospital pilots routinely show cost reductions of 25-35 % because hotels, food service, security and some on-ward nursing shifts disappear when the bed disappears. commonwealthfund.org
Fewer readmissions and penalties
Remote monitoring to detect and manage symptoms early to prevent deterioration and hospital admissions, meaning readmission rates typically drop 20-25 %, improving quality KPIs. aha.org
