28 Dec With focus on strategic

Case Study-Project

Your work with Intravalley Health has been well received. In fact, you have gained a reputation for insightful analysis. Given this, the board chair has asked you to assist another healthcare organization on whose board he also serves – and where his mother receives her routine care.

Your task is to research and analyze the organization and develop a new organizational strategy for the Arroyo Fresco Community Health Center in Arizona. This strategy will be presented to the Arroyo Fresco board via a written report and a summarizing presentation.

The Report

With focus on strategic planning, patients, other customers and market, your report should be a brief 2 to 3 page paper (excluding title page and reference list), which includes:

Discussion of new strategy, research support for the strategy, knowledge of best practices in reorganization. The strategy should be formulated using strategy development and strategy deployment, patient and healthcare market knowledge, patient relationships and satisfaction, and your research, including an analysis of the results, and should take into account current concerns including health care reform, the political environment in Arizona, the state of the economy, financing, and leadership and management principles learned during this course.

Analysis of a new organizational structure or ownership, if needed, supported by research completed along with examples of the pros and cons.

Specific goals and recommendations for the future, new and unique ideas or research supported rationale for continuing or changing current practices.

Description of how strategy will be executed and measured, including financing, revenue and expense. How will you pay for the changes you recommend? This is a critical part of the exercise.
