Thousands of companies in Europe need to complete energy efficiency audits of their operations by December 5, 2015. The requirements are not only applicable to major industrial operations, but also to the commercial and service sector.
European Directive 2012/27/EC (Article 8.4) requires companies to carry about energy audits by independent qualified experts. However, large companies which implement a certified energy or environmental management system are exempt from the energy audit obligation. Member States were left to determine who is a large company and who is exempt.
During this webinar, we will explore:
What is an energy efficiency audit?
Where does this requirement come from?
Which companies are impacted by this requirement?
By when do the audits need to be completed?
What should be in the corporate-wide audit report?
To whom do the results of the audits need to be provided?
How did the different Member States implement the requirements?
How do you meet these requirements?
What do you do with the results?

Current Expense Management Trends and T&E Spending BenchmarksAshley Emery
Faced with rising costs and added responsibility for the bottom line, accounting professionals today are increasingly turning to software automation to streamline processes and better control spending across a number of important functions. Chief among these are travel and entertainment (T&E) expense reporting and reimbursement. Now, a new survey of more than 600 CFOs, controllers, and accounting professionals identifies the top T&E trends and approaches to expense management for today's small, mid-sized, and enterprise businesses. Mark Brousseau, of Brousseau & Asociates, and Jennifer Steinke, of Dycom Industries, Inc., will discuss what companies are doing to overcome their T&E expense challenges, as well as how you can leverage findings from the survey to improve expense reporting at your company.

Tackling the Challenge of Effective Patient Engagement: How Health Catalyst i...Health Catalyst
Effective population health management within a provider organization is an interesting combination of technology, change management, and modified financial incentives. Turns out, managing a team member population to the same goals requires a similar set of tools and effort. It is possible to improve team member clinical outcomes (both individually and as a population) while driving down both corporate and personal health costs.
Join Jeff as he draws parallels between managing these surprisingly similar groups, using tools and principles that guide our thinking across both our client patient populations and our corporate team member populations, and suggests strategies for corporations to improve outcomes for their most important asset – their people.
Wednesday, June 8
1-2PM EST
Attendees will learn:
Parallels between patient and employee populations, and how one group informs the other for success.
Effective strategies Health Catalyst employs for both populations.
The “gamification” of wellness programs, and how this will drive future patient engagement and care management.

Why Healthcare Costing Matters to Enable Strategy and Financial PerformanceHealth Catalyst
According to Moody’s Investment Service Analysis, not-for-profit hospital margins are at an all-time low of 1.6% while the American Hospital Association has found that 30% of all hospitals have negative margins. Financial pressures are continuing to increase in an environment of rising costs, lower payments, an aging population, higher patient responsibility and changing consumer demands. Now more than ever healthcare providers need to have an accurate picture of their costing information to enable precise, strategic decisions that will improve financial performance.
Activity-based costing has the power to do just that. In this webinar Steve Vance, SVP, Professional Services, Health Catalyst explores different costing methodologies and discusses why activity-based costing is the preferable method to manage margins because it directly ties services to their costs. Many healthcare organizations base their costs on generalized drivers such as relative value units (RVUs) through their chargemaster rather than on specific activities associated with their services, leading to inaccurate assumptions and poor decisions.
View this webinar to learn:
- Why activity-based costing should be your core tool for improving financial performance.
- The differences and implications between costing methodologies.
- How to leverage data from an Electronic Data Warehouse (EDW) and automate processes while improving accuracy.
- Ways that you can make strategic decisions using clinical and operational data when tied to costing data.
- Activity-based costing use cases such as contract negotiations, pricing decisions, population health management (PHM), and process improvement efforts
We hope that you will view the webinar and learn from the depth and breadth of Steve’s extensive financial experience.
The healthcare transformation from fee for service to fee for outcomes just got an adrenaline shot in the arm April 27th when the Department of Health and Human Services surprised many in the market by announcing a Quality Payment Program, a proposed set of new rules to take effect in 2019 based on key provisions of the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA).

4. The South African picture
• There are over 55 million people living in South Africa
– Only 8.8 million people are registered on a medical
scheme
– 16% of the population
