“Knowing it is time to reshape your current reality is the first step to transformation. When we contacted V2V, our goal was to innovate our clinic network from all aspects; integration, structure, financial controls and leadership. Michelle and her team at V2V helped us develop a well-defined plan. In transformational management one hears Quality times Acceptance equals Results (Q*A = R). Along with the quality of recommendations, V2V worked diligently to garner both input and acceptance from providers and staff. This is what I believe will ensure long-term, sustainable success for our clinics in a very uncertain time..”

“When I started in our hospitalist program, it was previously marked by significant volatility and turnover. Our vacancy rate had been over 30% in our larger hospitals, with little success in attracting and retaining physicians. In fact, in the year prior we interviewed 59 candidates and only signed four. V2V helped us revise our physician compensation plan and incentivize quality outcomes. Afterward, we signed 37 doctors in less than a year! I highly recommend V2V for all things physician compensation.”

“As our organization grew we have struggled with developing a governance structure to meet those challenges. Our larger size and lack of experience required guidance and a new framework to enable us to make decisions to advance the organization. V2V came to us highly recommended, and their breadth of experience, and guidance has helped us to make those steps necessary to become a more disciplined, structured organization. This framework has helped to take advantage of new opportunities and the navigate the challenges that those opportunities bring. Any organization that finds itself changing rapidly, and struggling with its structure and processes, would be wise to seek our V2V and begin to understand what a mature institution can and should look like.”

“Irv Barnett began advising our practice after a series of challenging management failures that threatened our ability, as a practice, to move forward. That was in 1996. Today we have tripled in size, now serving eight hospitals with multiple specialties caring for patients in the ICU. With the ongoing advice and mentoring provided by Irv over the past 20 years, the plans we deployed have, literally, transformed our culture and made us successful at the business of healthcare.”

“We approached V2V because we wanted to ensure our community has the health care resources we need now and well into the future. V2V educated us on the role we envisioned on behalf of Lopez Island and helped us establish our core purpose and they guided us as we transformed our idea into the formation of Lopez Island Hospital District. Today, our organizational identity is rooted in our initial vision and will also be sustainable for future generations. ”
