Advocate Health System Clinical, Support, and Business Services Overview The following narrative overviews support the diagram entitled Advocate Health Care Process Map on the page that follows.
Advocate Health System Clinical Services The clinical services offered by the hospitals in Advocate Health Care share three common clinical processes. The process begins when the patient is admitted or accesses the hospital clinical services. The patient then enters the diagnosis/treat phase. In this phase there are several clinical and ancillary or diagnostic services. Some of these services vary by hospital but all hospitals offer the services shown on the process map. Once the patient completes the diagnostic and treat phase, they are discharged or transitioned. The discharge/transition process is addressed throughout the entire patient stay. If transitioned, patients may transition to home or another facility.
Advocate Health System Support Services The Advocate support services provide service and material support to the clinical services and the organization as a whole. The support services processes that occur either at the system or site level include fiscal, ancillary, general, human resources, clinical transformation and contracted services. The contracted services vary by site.
Advocate Health System Management The Advocate Health Care Board of Directors oversees the business management functions of the Advocate System. There is two way communication and interaction between the Board and Advocate system senior leadership and the site Governing Councils. The system ISO 9001 Quality Management Review Committee interacts and is accountable to these two groups. The Medical Executive Committees at each hospital report to the site Governing Councils.
