Committee reports highlight quality update and proposed budget assumptions
Summary
Board committee reports covered a quality presentation—described as central to the system's mission—and a purchasing and fiscal update that introduced a proposed budget built on assumptions about volume, inflation and investments in people and technology.
The chair summarized several committee meetings and said the board reviewed the annual operating agreement with the University of Miami and heard a quality presentation led by Isis Zambrana and Dr. Gayam Agami. "It was interesting to hear her say 'quality isn't another initiative. It's how Jackson fulfills its mission,'" the chair said, reporting that more than 550 leaders have been trained as part of the quality effort.
The chair also reported on purchasing and facilities and delivered a fiscal update. She said Suzelle walked the committee through the proposed budget assumptions, citing expected patient volumes, inflationary impacts and planned investments in staff, technology and infrastructure. No specific dollar figures were provided in the discussion recorded in the transcript.
