Managing with precision. A budgetary decision support model.
In this era of intense competition for restrained healthcare resources, a sound financial system can provide the foundation for evaluating care requirements while balancing allocation and deployment of resources. The authors describe one nursing division's comprehensive budgetary decision support model. This model has enabled achievement of rigorous budgetary goals while maintaining high standards of quality. The budgetary decision support model was internally created; however, it is applicable and easily adaptable to any healthcare organization.
