The vision of the Cost & Resource Planning Committee is to benchmark total community health care costs, demographically adjusted by age, race, gender, and income; and within specific disease states by provider type/site of service. The benchmarking of total community health care costs is to analyze both unit cost and utilization.
The outcome options the Cost & Resource Planning Committee include:
- To evaluate the status of the measurable health outcomes, objectives, and goals established in the GFHC’s 2007-2012 Goal Framework, including the measurable health outcomes for each GFHC Committee and Task Force, as determined through the self-assessment process. The status of these measureable health outcomes will be regularly reported to the GFHC Board of Directors & Executive Committee.
- To benchmark and continuously monitor total community healthcare costs (including unit cost, utilization, morbidity & mortality, chronic disease, and preventative care measures) for Genesee County, demographically adjusted overall (age, race, gender, and income); and within specific disease categories by provider type/site of service. In doing so, the Committee will implement and continue to refine a community-wide balanced scorecard process for health care costs, quality, and outcomes in Genesee County in-conjunction with the Data Review Subcommittee.
- To serve as the monitoring body for all GFHC committee and task force activities.
- To direct the Data Review Subcommittee’s data collection efforts.
- To direct, assess, and strategically plan for regional health information exchange (HIE) efforts & opportunities.
- To serve as the City of Flint Mayor’s Local Auto Task Force Health Care Impact Subcommittee.
- To develop and implement an action plan to address Genesee County's Health Rankings as outlined in the "County Health Rankings" study of 2010 by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute.
- Monitor and oversee completion of the Greater Flint Health Coalition's Community Data Scorecard to serve as the Community Health Needs Assessment for Genesee County and its local hospitals.
