The Launch of ZEST BOARD: A New Dashboard for Home Care Management

In an innovative move for the healthcare industry, ZEST Corporation, headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has officially unveiled the launch of the 'Home Care Version ZEST BOARD.' This specialized dashboard aims to streamline the management of home care services by automating business metrics and allowing healthcare providers to make data-driven decisions effortlessly.

Understanding the 'Home Care Version ZEST BOARD'

The ZEST BOARD is designed to transform the management practices of clinics that often rely on intuition and experience. By providing a clear visualization of key performance indicators (KPIs), the ZEST BOARD empowers administrators and managers to leverage quantifiable data for effective operational management. The latest version, focused on home care, integrates insights gathered from physicians to address specific challenges intrinsic to home healthcare management.

Users simply need to input their daily visit schedules into ZEST, after which the system automatically compiles and calculates complex data. This feature ensures that clinic managers and administrative heads have access to the latest business information without additional workload.

Five Key Business Analytics Achieved with ZEST BOARD

ZEST BOARD doesn’t just gather numbers; it is designed to provide in-depth analysis through five critical perspectives that can assist clinic managers materially in enhancing their business operations:

1. Revenue Forecasting

By visualizing data such as patient volume, visit frequency, and breakdowns of reimbursement rates, clinics can quickly ascertain trends in overall revenues. It also provides a detailed breakdown of patient segments contributing to revenue, such as private homes versus facilities, which allows for more accurate revenue predictions.

2. New Patient Acquisition Evaluation

Tracking the number of new patients and referrals allows clinics to measure their success in reaching new clientele. By automatically tracking the time taken from referral to the start of visits, clinics can evaluate their standing in the community and work on fostering effective partnerships.

3. Service Evaluation

The dashboard allows for in-depth analysis of cancellation reasons, determining if they were unavoidable or due to scheduling inflexibility. This visibility helps clinicians ensure that they are providing a patient-friendly service structure while maintaining revenue stability.

4. Risk Assessment

By analyzing patient retention rates, exits, and reasons for contract non-renewals, potential revenue loss can be identified early on. For clinics contracted with RRM, the dashboard offers insights into contract completion with various partner institutions, allowing them to respond appropriately to any issues that arise.

5. Productivity Evaluation

The productivity of all staff, including doctors, nurses, and administrative personnel, can be closely monitored. Understanding individual contributions and team dynamics enables clinics to optimize workforce management, development policies, and enhance overall productivity.

User Testimonials

In a recent testimonial, one user expressed their previous challenges of manually entering data into Excel, which was time-consuming. With the implementation of ZEST BOARD, they can now aggregate data seamlessly by simply inputting their schedules, allowing rapid access to current operational metrics. This transformation has led to improved insights regarding patient volumes and staffing efficiency, greatly aiding in administrative decision-making processes.
