In my chosen healthcare, the major issue with performance is the issue of adequate fund allocation and the lack of infrastructural capacities to cope with the current situation of the pandemic and even the post-pandemic times. This gap has damaged the flow of a quality care from the health institution over the years and now, the gap needs to be filled with preparedness to manage the future waves of the pandemic (Mitra, Mishra & Kumar, 2018). Moreover the internal coordination among the staff and the data management system is not at par with the global standards and consequently, a collective consequence is often seen detrimental to the concerns of the patients. Moreover, a proper channels of coordination among the insurance companies, the government, the executive wing of the democracy, and the internal management of the healthcare often lacks a synergy that has caused the patients and the staff of the setting to pay badly. Hence, the Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) is required to match up and expedite the system and its functioning in an advanced manner. If the plan will be successful, the financial implication will be the enhanced capital expenditure of the setting that will bolster future scope of improvement in the organization and further there will be chances for future infrastructural upgradation and more employment generation. Revenues will generated in more amount than the present condition along with the streamlining of the sustainable development plan by optimizing the internal and external performance characteristics and the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).Â
The PIP will be deeply dependent upon the use of a smart and optimized data entry, tabulation, and management tool along with a robust and resilient database server that is quickly accessible even after an unforeseen failure or workplace data-breach issue. Data related to the internal an external functioning of the organization, records of the patients, and the nuances of the financial information are very crucial in this aspect as there are immense chances of a very comprehensive and proper audit that will further help in enhancing the organizationâs success.
The organizational process performances will maintain a robust and resilient quantitative and qualitative performance understanding of the setting. Projects, quantitative performance indicators, baselines, performance data, business models, and the support from the implementation of the high maturity areas will collectively construct the outcome of the PIP.Â
Analysis of the Interdepartmental Communication that Is Necessary for the Continued Engagement in the Proposed Initiative
Â
Interdepartmental communication is the most vital area of a healthcare setting that majorly decides the shape of the healthcareâs success in terms of facilitating the patients, a quality care. Files from one department to the other, communication with the staff of the relevant departments, carrying their messages, and the engagement process with the patientsâ families require a relentless and tireless efforts by the entire team of the healthcare irrespective of their departments. Hence, a cordial, efficient, succinct, comprehensive, and utilization of both of the verbal and the non-verbal means of communication are being suggested for the continued engagement in the proposed initiative.Â
