NCHE Event Highlights

Kevin M. Bonds, FACHE, LTC, MS, Deputy Commander for Administration, Rader U.S. Army Health Clinic and NCHE Program Chair presenting our speaker Melissa  L. Smith, VP of Revenue Cycle, Stafford Hospital.

Melissa presented on a leaders perspective, strategic activities and lessons learned from Leading in a Start-Up Hospital Environment.  New hospitals don’t spring up all that often-especially here on the east coast, where real estate is limited!  Forget a moment the need for space and funding.  Melissa in her presentation discussed the preparation and planning that must occur before a patient ever steps in the facility.

Working with the community
Building a team of physicians
Staffing every department
Selecting the best technologies
Ensuring staff are comfortable with the policies and procedures in place
Dry runs to validate every step in the process

In the picture, Melissa was presented with the book titled "Coming of Age, The 75-Year History of the American College of Healthcare Executives" in recognition and as a thank you for her outstanding presentation at the sold out March 09, 2010 NCHE dinner meeting
