Getting a handle on DNFB strategies for boosting performance.
Keeping tabs on DNFB requires a commitment from multiple departments, including clinical documentation, health information management, utilization management, and patient financial services. Monitoring DNFB performance daily, weekly, and monthly can help an organization quickly resolve short-term problems and also identify and respond to more systemic issues. By leveraging historical and comparison data, including performance information from peer organizations, hospitals and health systems can set more realistic targets and further highlight improvement opportunities.
