This new strategic plan is a bold roadmap for the next decade for the Lowcountry’s largest healthcare system for adults. It marks a significant milestone since the Medical Society of South Carolina and Bon Secours Mercy Health announced its joint venture to share ownership of Roper St. Francis Healthcare in late 2019.
Roper St. Francis Healthcare is built on five key initiatives:
- Optimize the footprint: Roper St. Francis Healthcare is expanding access to quality care by building new facilities and improving existing ones. Learn more.
- Modernize technology: Roper St. Francis Healthcare implemented a new electronic medical record, Epic, which will enable patients and medical providers to more easily access records.
- Address the clinical needs of the future: Based on patient needs, Roper St. Francis Healthcare is intentionally expanding key health care service lines such as cancer care and orthopaedics.
- Improve sustainability: Roper St. Francis Healthcare is intentionally expanding finances, talent management and processes to improve operational efficiency, which are the nuts and bolts that make it possible to serve the community.
- Expand population management: Roper St. Francis Healthcare is improving the healthcare experience and reduce costs for employers and large populations of patients, such as those who qualify for Medicare.
To accomplish this plan, we are focusing on three key drivers: investing in our teammates, cultivating a culture of engagement and advocating for our interests.
The 2030 strategic plan is bold, ambitious and, together, it’s possible. It gives Roper St. Francis Healthcare a path forward to better serve our community’s health needs with the compassion and excellence that’s defined our care for the last 170 years.
