This group's goal is to maximise the utility and timeliness of peer, patient cost and revenue comparisons in the pursuit of efficiency, and safe, high quality patient care. Activity Based Funding will continue as the primary Commonwealth Hospital funding mechanism for at least the next three years. More Health Services are looking for cost and revenue improvement opportunities across all programs. The Health Roundtable provides the most timely, in depth cost and revenue analyses, and peer comparisons in Australia.

Join the Financial Performance Improvement Group for 2017 and we will collect, analyse and report costs and revenues for 2016/17 across the continuum of care – Emergency, Acute Inpatients, Mental Health, Sub-acute and Ambulatory services. We will benchmark your costs and NWAU revenues with your peers and highlight significant savings opportunities. We will highlight the huge cost impost of poor patient care and sub-optimum safety and quality. We will show your profit and loss for each of these streams using your own NWAU units. See how much you are making or losing for each episode, clinical service, clinical department, service stream or your entire health service. New group members are also invited to attend the March 2017 meeting in Melbourne to review the 2015/16 reports and benchmarking.
