DHF has a track record in turning around underperforming healthcare businesses based on an approach developed by Tom Mann. This requires specialist skills and methods that blend hard-nosed private sector business expertise with an intimate understanding of the issues and constraints of the healthcare market.

As CEO of the UK operations of a major health care business, Tom Mann achieved substantial improvements to both revenue, profits and operational performance. His approach combined increasing government contracts and a strong focus on critical areas for improvement. Although Tom is an advocate of evidenced based management, motivation of key staff and reward for performance were also critical in achieving the improvements.

Recently, DHF consultants were engaged to recover the financial health of a private group of hospitals: they had been unable to convert their increasing revenue from NHS Choose and Book into profit. Within six months, Tom and his team turned round a loss-making enterprise to become one with positive profit margins, which have grown for almost two years now. The key to this success was a tight focus on detailed costings and processes, combining clinical excellence with improvements in the use of consumables, prostheses, procedure selection and staffing levels.
