Starting and Managing a Diagnostic Imaging Capital Asset Management Program

Overview

Designing, implementing, and managing a Diagnostic Imaging Capital Asset Management program can be extremely difficult. This is primarily due to the complexity of the program and the cooperation necessary from the various departments involved. As a result, many managed care facilities, hospital groups, and service management groups are leaning toward contracted capital asset programs due to time restraints in reducing costs rather than allowing their capital asset program to evolve.

However, hospitals that have implemented fine-tuned Capital Asset Management programs are reaping the fruits of their efforts and are in position or implementing capitated healthcare programs.

This course is designed to provide hospital management, OEM managers, and maintenance providers with the in-depth knowledge necessary to start and manage a diagnostic imaging capital asset management program. It is recommended that the lead people involved in starting and implementing this program attend the same course.

This seminar is specifically designed for:

• Radiology Administrators
