SI has helped Flagler Hospital and the First Coast Health Alliance develop and deploy a private health information exchange (HIE) for the ACO. SI performed an assessment and prioritization of community-based physician practices and identified process changes required to ensure high quality of data within the HIE. SI is currently managing analysis, design, and clinical deployment to the practices, and helping communication and change management. SI’s support has been instrumental in helping Flagler, FCHA, and the HIE vendor (dbMotion/Allscripts) to identify and resolve issues in a timely fashion.

While the U.S. healthcare market is attractive to Israeli start-ups, it’s difficult to avoid costly missteps while navigating the complex environment. A partner such as SI can leverage experience and long-standing relationships to help Israeli health tech companies succeed here in the U.S.  Al and I share the same desire to help accelerate one of Israel’s most precious exports and it’s exciting to see how he is bringing this to fruition.

Strategic Interests is a tremendous asset for our healthcare community.  They are a trusted adviser to our region’s physicians and community organizations; trust that was earned through their demonstrated ability to collaborate and innovate to improve outcomes.  They help effectively adopt and implement technology available today including the process to review, evaluate, and select new solutions to solve problems or address opportunities.  SI also supports strategic initiatives by envisioning innovative ways to care for patients or run a practice.  They excel at linking practices and organizations to solve problems beyond the reach of a single entity.  SI consultants care for this community and contribute their time, resources, and ideas to make it better.

As the CEO of the Greater Rochester Jewish Community Center, I have had the great pleasure of working hand in hand with Strategic Interests to move our agency in an exciting new direction. Critical to our mission is ensuring the health and wellness of our diverse membership.  Two years ago, we formed a task force that set out to identify, develop and implement the next generation of wellness care. Strategic Interests played a leadership role throughout this process. Having an extensive understanding of the health and wellness landscape, Strategic Interests proposed an innovative model to form a strategic partnership between a top tier fitness center and major integrated health system.  They benchmarked best practices from across the country, visiting several such partnerships to understand the pros and cons. They developed a strategic plan for our center to partner with a health system, and then met with the two leading health systems in Rochester to determine who would be the better fit.

Strategic Interests helped the JCC partnership with Rochester Regional Health including an on-site health clinic, medical staffing to provide assessments to our membership, and creative joint programming to address all sorts of health and wellness needs across life stages. While we are just at the tip of the iceberg of this relationship, we could not have navigated this process without the strategic thinking, creativity, and leadership of Strategic Interests.
