Rhonda Matney

In accordance with assigned responsibility from the C-Suite, I work as an onsite/remote Interim Director/Manager/Consultant within the Quality, Compliance, Risk, Privacy, Clinical Improvement, Health Information Management, Medical Staff Department/Office, Utilization Review, and/or Case Management fields. Federal and State and regional laws vary as to the regulations required to manage each of these areas of expertise. My job is to discover and design a Plan process to assure that the applicable laws are literally applied to the affected professional discipline for which I am hired to manage. I educate and impart this information to the leadership and members of management and clinicians, along with the staff that I manage. My authority comes directly from the C-Suite who empowers me and to make my work effective with their facility members. After performing a gap analysis of the work process and final product in each department, I utilize Hugh Greeley's and W. Edward Deming's Quality principles and approaches to arrive at a personalized Action Plan for each client. I take this Plan to the leadership for approval prior to the start of implementation. I do not know everything. I learn everyday in each facility that I serve which I apply in creation of The Plan. I have alot of fun! And, I attempt to spread the thrill of discovery, education, and ultimate improvement to each member of the facility's team.
