PITTSBURGH, October 21, 2019 – YouCompli, developer of a software platform that helps healthcare providers streamline and accelerate their regulatory compliance, has begun serving Baptist Health in Jacksonville. The agreement is YouCompli’s first with a healthcare provider in the Sunshine State. Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville and Baptist Medical Center South, two of Baptist Health’s acute adult hospitals, were recognized this year by U.S. News & World Report among top hospitals nationally for gynecology and diabetes and endocrinology. Wolfson Children’s Hospital, the flagship pediatric acute hospital of Baptist Health, was ranked in June among the 50 Best Children’s Hospitals for pediatric cancer and pediatric neurology & neurosurgery.
“Hospitals and healthcare systems are under increased pressure to reduce costs while providing the highest levels of care,” says Jerry Shafran, CEO and founder of YouCompli. “A significant part of that cost mitigation strategy is complying with an ever-increasing number of federal and state regulations without getting bogged down by them.”
“The more we grow, the more complex and difficult it becomes to stay on top of regulatory compliance,” adds Joni Smith, Chief Compliance Officer, Baptist Health. “We chose YouCompli to help us stay on top of an ever-changing regulatory environment and make our compliance activities more efficient and effective. It has already given us greater peace of mind.”
How YouCompli Works
Using YouCompli software is a straightforward process. After a short implementation process, healthcare providers are notified when a new regulatory requirement is published. The requirements include everything the provider needs, including regulatory tasks, and policies and procedures required to comply.
The software also allows users to assign tasks to responsible parties within the organization and provides users with tools to implement the requirements. Additionally, YouCompli allows top and senior management to maintain real-time visibility of implementation activities and correct any deficiencies before they become serious.
