The management service company's expectation of the customer

Article Abstract:

A mutually beneficial relationship between the hospital and the management service company can be achieved by maintaining constant communication. In order to come up with an effective program, the management service company needs to know the hospital's primary objectives. The hospital, in turn, is expected to give a feedback as to how the program is faring. In addition, the hospital should explain management decisions to employees and express its support for the management service company. The two parties should also conduct regular assessments of the hospital management company's performance.

Developing a quality improvement program in materiel management

Article Abstract:

The implementation of a quality improvement program (QIP) in a hospital's materiel management department contributes to improved quality of patient care. Management commitment to quality is the foremost requirement of an effective QIP. The hospital administration should provide monetary or nonmonetary incentives to deserving employees if quality improvement goals are met. Devising a system of quality measurement is also valuable in monitoring quality improvement efforts.
