Integrated Healthcare Strategies uses proven, state-of-the-art governance design, educational programs and tools to help Boards use their time and talents more effectively.

Three key products in our Board Development Services include Board Retreats, Board Effectiveness Reviews and Governance Enhancement Plans.

Boards face both internal challenges and external scrutiny on the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of the execution of their fiduciary duties. Now more than ever, the industry requires excellent governance structures, processes, communications and documentation. Integrated Healthcare Strategies has extensive experience in the assessment of Board performance and in the development of strategies and systems to continuously enhance the governance of complex healthcare and hospital systems.

Advisors in our Governance & Leadership Practice have developed and implemented Governance Enhancement Plans for scores of leading hospitals and health systems. This service includes Board reorganization during and after mergers, Board performance appraisals, streamlining governance models and committee structures, Board education and development plans, and development of useful governance policy and procedure systems. In addition, in this era of increased transparency and accountability, we provide Board members access to sophisticated, web-based information for enhanced 24/7 access to materials needed for high performance Board work.

Integrated Healthcare Strategies can also help your Board assess issues and develop effective recruitment and compensation programs that attract, retain and align skilled directors to successfully govern today's complex healthcare organizations.
