In July we talked about upgrading your F9 version. We are mentioning it again because after December 31st of this year, the special upgrade pricing will no longer be available. Right now you can upgrade a single F9 license to Version 5 for $550. (Regular price: $1,100) If you purchased CYMA from us, you also […]
Through the years, we have had several iterations of the CEO program. All good. However, profitability is MVI’s core competence and it is a topic we can teach well. Profitability is essential to organizational sustainability and capacity. This is a completely new 2-day program designed to create a crystal clear roadmap of what is specifically […]
Nothing brings out the best in people like budget season. And most Multi-View clients know that we council against budgets altogether in favor of Models. But we know the realities that boards impose. Sometimes you just need a precise static budget—and you need it fast. We can take the sting out of budgeting. That’s what […]
Best Practices are essential to be competitive. It doesn’t matter if they are “home grown” or come from elsewhere. You need a continual stream of them coming into your hospice as you evolve it. Entities that don’t want to change and adopt Best Practices get smashed in the long haul. Hospices that are always looking […]
It seems that someone is always trying to sell something. I grow weary of it…unless it is something I need. May God strike down MVI if we ever sell something to a hospice that is not needed! HOWEVER, as a leader, whether a CEO, CFO, Clinical Leader or any other asset manager, you are constantly […]
If your fiscal year ends on December 31, 2013, you will submit one more cost report in the old format. After that, you will most likely submit the “sequel” – a much more detailed and demanding version. To-date, this is a proposal…a proposal that we feel will become reality. However, fear not. MVI has been […]
Are you an outlier? Though this term can carry a negative connotation in the reimbursement and regulatory worlds, here we are viewing it positively. It is an interesting topic to contemplate. Secretly, most individuals seek differentiation and want to be recognized, at least according to Maslow and his Hierarchy of Needs. Or we could cite […]
I did not write the CFO Bible. My opinion is not significant…except for the fact that I have been a CFO, and have trained and witnessed more than a thousand CFOs at this point in my career. What should be important to you and your respective hospices is how competent you are as a CFO. […]
Those who adapt survive. For years Andrew’s Hospice CFO training course has contained the following exam question: “When Medicare cuts hospice rates, what three things will happen?” Hospice visionaries and pioneers are not surprised by cuts to Medicare reimbursements. Nor are they alarmed. Good hospices will adjust their models and continue to provide stellar care […]
If a hospice has moved from the paradigm of being “a provider of care” to that of being “a teaching organization” first and foremost, then teaching clinicians “how to teach” during the visit would be a topic that would receive tremendous intention. It should not be assumed that clinicians inherently have these skills. These teaching […]
