Improve Operational Efficiency and Quality of Care of Your Organization

It’s estimated that up to 80% of healthcare projects fail. Not identifying a project as such, and leaving project management responsibility to project managers alone, is one of the root causes of these failures — regardless of their role, many healthcare professionals manage various projects on a daily basis: From handling documentation and billings to implementing changes to IT systems.

Equipping all healthcare professionals with skills to effectively manage their tasks and optimize processes can improve patient care, cut costs associated with project failures, and increase job satisfaction by giving employees more agency.

Together with American University, OpusVi co-developed the Certificate in Healthcare Project Management to empower any healthcare professional to drive changes in their unit, department, and organization in a rapidly changing industry.
