There are few jobs tougher than that of a compliance officer, quality director or policy and procedure coordinator, especially in today’s rapidly-changing healthcare landscape. Your responsibilities may seem straightforward—staying ahead of regulatory changes, thoroughly and accurately updating policies, meeting laws and regulations at all times, and adhering to strict approvals and timelines. But, peeling back the curtain reveals a harsh reality—for many healthcare policy and procedure experts, there are just too many documents to manage and there is not enough time to do it effectively.
For years, hospital leadership has struggled with updating and maintaining policies and procedures. Enormous volumes of paper documents were stuffed into many binders scattered throughout the hospital. This system made it nearly impossible for staff members to have access to the most current version of policies and procedures; it was difficult to make critical changes quickly and to educate staff on those changes.
To make matters worse, creating new policies from scratch is labor and resource intensive for most healthcare organizations. Developing policies and procedures requires in-depth research, knowledge of regulations, hospital-wide coordination and hours that no one has in today’s healthcare environment. Moreover, policies need to be continually updated to meet new/changing regulations and best practices. So, your staff ends up overwhelmed, pushing your organization’s compliance out of reach.
So, what are compliance officers, quality directors and policy and procedure coordinators to do?
