Risk management is integral to healthcare as it can be the difference between life and death. A majority of healthcare providers seek health care-specific risk management services to help mitigate administrative, clinical, and financial losses as these services keep patient safety at the fore. A centralized reporting system helps them protect patient information, further reducing patient risks and the costs involved while improving process efficiency.
While healthcare risk management is primarily focused on patient safety, its scope has grown to extend far beyond prevention of medical errors. Healthcare providers today need to plan for catastrophes as part of their risk management planning. With disease outbreaks common in healthcare, having a plan in place will help resolve any issues more quickly while ensuring patient safety.
