2/2 Introduction to Resource Management in Health Organizations and Nonprofits

Wednesday, February 2nd, 2022, 12:00 – 1:30 PM ET

Description:

This webinar will examine the various aspects of resource management in health care, health organizations and nonprofits. Resource management is the evidence-based process by which health care organizations effectively distribute human, capital, supply and data resources in a manner that assures operational and financial stability for the organization and quality care for individuals.

Traditionally in health and social service organizations, resource management and fiscal and budgeting responsibilities have been the purview of the chief financial officer, accountants, and budget analysts. However, today, front-line managers are being called upon to integrate fiscal planning and resource management into their clinical and operational responsibilities.

This program is intended for public health leaders who have limited knowledge, skills and experience with resource and financial management and or those wish to review and/or refresh their knowledge of fiscal principles.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the major resources in health care requiring a management approach
  • Identify strategies and tools to monitor resource utilization
  • Explain possible performance deviations through a variance analysis process
  • Identify strategies for performance improvement in the resource management process
