Noblis' Center for Health Innovation

Falls Church, VA, December 1, 2007 Noblis President and CEO Amr ElSawy announced today that the healthcare services area of Noblis would now be called Noblis' Center for Health Innovation. "I believe the concept of a Center for Health Innovation more clearly demonstrates the breadth and depth of the professional and innovative services we bring to the current health care marketplace," states Mr. ElSawy. "We provide our public and private health care customers new and innovative strategies and partnerships requiring substantial organizational commitment to change. Hospitals and health care organizations are increasingly seeking outside guidance to help them improve the quality and efficacy of care; anticipate local and regional market trends; align physicians with their hospitals to achieve a superior market position; modernize their facilities; develop creative staff retention initiatives; or harness information technology that will enable them to meet their strategic goals. Noblis' Center for Health Innovation is singularly focused on these complex issues."
Alan Dowling, Ph.D. and Executive Director, explains why the Center for Health Innovation is different from its competitors. "Through our advisory services coupled with our applied research and breakthrough technology applications we offer truly objective, impartial, independent counsel and guidance. Because Noblis is a nonprofit, fully independent organization, we have no commercial interests to advance, no vendor alliances to protect, and no stockholders to satisfy our only objective is to help our customers achieve their objectives."
Noblis' public and private healthcare client base is large and continues to grow. "We provide professional services for one-third of all acute care hospitals in the country with over 300 beds. We attribute this success to a reflection of our business ethics and operating with a different kind of bottom line doing what's right and doing what works for our clients," stresses Pamela Walker, corporate vice president. "This is an exciting step for our organization and plays upon our continuing commitment of offering world class services to our customers."
Noblis' Center for Health Innovation is a mission area within Noblis, providing professional services in the health care arena, including: Strategy & Planning, Facility Planning, Performance Innovation, Information Management & Systems, Research & Evaluation, Acquisition Support, Post-Acute Services.
