Helicon Consulting approaches planning for specific product
areas with an eye toward national healthcare trends and benchmarks, but also with an understanding that each hospital is unique
and defined by its specific patient mix, provider mix, corporate culture, and payer panel. With this in mind, we approach
the project with a willingness to "ask hard questions" and "challenge the status quo" while listening attentively to the staff
regarding operations and the facility attributes needed to continue to make their organization distinct. Service or department
planning varies by clinical area, although each plan includes clearly defining or redefining the scope of clinical service
and identifying an optimum operational model within the process of determining the facility and location requirements.
