Perhaps one of the greatest challenges today is the inability of many stand-alone healthcare facilities to deliver quality healthcare while maintaining a financially viable healthcare organization. As a result, many regional health alliances have been organized to provide a forum for healthcare organizations to explore quality healthcare delivery models, as well as cost saving initiatives This book presents the results of research performed to identify the Critical Success Factors (CSFs) that are necessary for regional health alliances to achieve their organizational mission and vision. In summary, the top five identified CSFs (in order of decreasing importance) are: (1) Alliance Leadership, (2) Membership, (3) Financial Operations, (4) Collaboration and Communication, and (5) Staff Expertise. The survey results provide an increased objectivity to healthcare organizations currently in or planning to develop regional health alliances. These results are beneficial in building the necessary infrastructure to facilitate regional health alliances.
