📢 Introducing:
The Hospital Performance Playbook
A New Weekly Executive Series from National Daily Hospital News
First Chapter Releases Tomorrow — Saturday November 22nd!
Hospitals across the United States are entering one of the most challenging operating environments in decades. Medicare margins are tightening. CMS payment rules are shifting. Staffing pressures remain constant. And the demand for high-value, high-efficiency care has never been greater.
Leadership teams need more than news updates.
They need a toolkit.
Starting this weekend, National Daily Hospital News will publish a new weekly Saturday series designed uniquely for hospital executives, board members, service line leaders, and healthcare operators:
📘 The Hospital Performance Playbook
Strategies, Case Studies, and Toolkits for Building the #1 Hospital in Your Market
Every week, we will release a new chapter — deeply researched, practical, and ready for immediate use inside your organization.
Each chapter includes:
A short narrative vignette that illustrates the real hospital experience
A clear thesis explaining why this issue matters now
Evidence-based analysis from CMS, MedPAC, JAMA, AHA, and leading research centers
A mid-chapter case study showing “what good looks like”
A step-by-step Leadership Action Plan
Key metrics and dashboard recommendations
A closing reflection to anchor leadership mindset
And a full downloadable Executive Toolbox:
A PowerPoint deck for your team
A Gantt project schedule (6-, 12-, and 18-month versions)
Templates, checklists, and more
These weekly chapters will give hospital leaders structured, actionable, and credible guidance based on the best insights in U.S. healthcare operations.
