Leverages data to generate accurate demand forecasts by department.
Converts patient demand into staffing needs using length of stay ratios.
Connects operations, HR, and finance in one model for seamless planning.
Healthcare organizations face the complex challenge of balancing patient demand with appropriate staffing levels while managing labor costs effectively. This three-part demonstration showcases how Anaplan enables a seamless closed-loop workforce planning process connecting operations, HR, and finance teams.
Operations teams start by forecasting patient volumes using statistical models and historical data, then convert those forecasts into nursing FTE requirements based on length of stay and nurse-to-patient ratios. HR teams receive real-time headcount requests, review skill set coverage, and create requisitions that flow directly to finance for approval. Finance teams then evaluate labor costs at granular levels while comparing budget against actuals.
By working in a single connected model, all teams operate from one source of truth, ensuring accurate, confident decision-making.
