2.1 WHAT?
Based on our study, the DEMC Specialist Hospital has a few problems that
should be improvise in their hospital. The first problem is most of the people
perception this DEMC is closely linked to government institution hospitals. As we
know, this hospital began with the name “Primary Maternity and Medical Centre”
(PMMC) in the year 1997, the hospital has commenced inpatient services. For the
year 2000, the hospital has re-branding of PMMC to “Darul Ehsan Medical Centre”
(DEMC). When the hospital was relocated to Section 14 Shah Alam, it is officially re-
branded as “DEMC Specialist Hospital”, Shah Alam in 2010. From this timeline, it
can be seen Darul Ehsan Medical Center, which consists of the name state of
Selangor Darul Ehsan. However, that related “Darul Ehsan” name, DEMC name
7
cannot be expanded to other state because of its name. Mostly, DEMC Specialist
Hospital is focus-oriented at Shah Alam and Klang Valley only. Therefore, the
company decided to rebrand the company name from the Darul Ehsan Medical
Centre to Avisena Specialist Hospital, which is the meaning of ‘AVISENA’ is from
“Ibnu Sina”, a Persian polymath who was one of the most significant physicians,
astronomers, thinkers and writers of the Islamic Golden Age. This rebranding
exercise is one part of how to improve their services. They are changing its
corporate colours, as well as improving their core culture that is long instilled in all
staff.
Next, the process of hospital workflow that tend to be problematic or irritating
for patients, especially admission processes and patient flow. From admission
processes, we can see when in admitting patients, the back-office workflow
admission process often has to go from desk to desk, which means long waiting time
and more hassles for patients. Meanwhile, at the patient flow, delays in patient flow
are not uncommon in hospitals. While bed availability and system capacity can
determine patient flow, delays are often caused by process issues. These process
issues may include inappropriate ward placement, delayed diagnosis decision, lack
of consensus between an emergency department (ED) and ward on appropriate
inpatient admission, lack of bed availability due to delayed discharge of inpatients
and many more. These delays not only make patients feel frustrated, but also it
contributes to inefficiencies and waiting time. As waiting time increases, patient
satisfaction will drop significantly.
Other than that, the transformational changes can be seen when they are
acquiring new technologies, automation admission and recruiting additional
specialists to boost their standing and offering more sub-specialty treatment. By
acquiring the new technologies, their business can be more smoothly operate than
before.

Designed with women and children in mind, the hospital has created a special
room for it is paediatric patients’ mothers called the Anjung Bonda. It is an exclusive
room for mothers to rest and recuperate. Unlike labour rooms in other hospitals, at
Avisena Women’s and Children’s Specialist Hospital, the labour rooms are also
designed to create a calm, soothing, homely ambiance for its soon to be mothers. To
educate and alleviate anxiety for children who have to undergo radiology
procedures, a dummy CT-Scan machine called kitten scanner is set up. It even has
a rooftop playground and playrooms with play therapists at each paediatric ward. On
the 11th floor, Sutera Lounge, a waiting area is accessible for its premium patients
and visitors. Avisena Women’s and Children’s Specialist Hospital has a total of 16
suites and executive rooms that comes with a butler service.

3.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
3.1 State your views / opinion of the current process (within the scope of
the areas discussed in part 2 above)
Healthcare is a big topic which presents even bigger challenges for healthcare
leaders. The following section will focus on three impacted areas starting with
marketing followed by product or service and lastly is financial problems.
Based on our study, the DEMC Specialist Hospital have a few problems that
should be improvise in their hospital. The marketing problem is that most people
perception this DEMC is closely linked to government institution hospitals. As we
know, this hospital began with name “Primary Maternity and Medical Centre”
(PMMC) in year 1997, the hospital has commenced inpatient services. On the year
2000, the rebranding of PMMC became “Darul Ehsan Medical Centre” (DEMC).
When the hospital was relocated to section 14 Shah Alam, it is officially re-branded
as “DEMC Specialist Hospital”, Shah Alam on 2010. From this timeline, it can be
seen Darul Ehsan Medical Center which consists of the name state of Selangor
Darul Ehsan. However, that related “Darul Ehsan” name, DEMC name can’t be
expanded to other state because of its name. Mostly DEMC Specialist Hospital focus
oriented Shah Alam and Klang Valley only.
The second problem is the hospital workflow processes that tend to be
problematic or irritating for patients especially admission processes & patient flow.
From admission processes, we can see when in admitting patients, the back-office
workflow admission process often has to go from desk to desk, which means longer
wait time and more hassles for patients. Meanwhile at the patient flow, Delays in
patient flow aren’t uncommon in hospitals. While bed availability and system capacity
can determine patient flow, delays are often caused by process issues. These
process issues may include inappropriate ward placement, delayed diagnosis
decision, lack of consensus between emergency department (ED) and ward on
appropriate inpatient admission, lack of bed availability due to delayed discharge of
inpatients etc. These delays not only make patients feel frustrated, but also
contribute to inefficiencies and wait times. As wait time increases, patient satisfaction
will drop.

Next, there are growing financial pressures for many of the healthcare
organizations to collect cash for services rendered due to increasing amount of
deductibles and increased co-pays that burden patients with additional expense.
AVISENA also facing the same issue in managing the cash collection for the service
that already been given to the patient. The management should look down this
matter urgently on their current workflow & standard of procedure (SOP) as the
figure will rise time by time if there is no action taken from now onwards. Each year,
the outstanding amount not collected among corporate client or insurance company
also increase. As the one of the income of the company comes from this resource,
there will be small impact in terms of the company financial performance if it’s not
been handling well.
Based on table as per below, the outstanding amount not collected from the
previous accounting year by the debtor of the corporate client or third party
administrator also contribute to the low amount of revenue generated from the
service given to the patient. Current practice in handling those debtor account should
be reviewed again & handle well. The respective department should take an urgent
action to monitor this issue carefully with the involvement of the decision maker of
the company. Some debtors such as corporate clients & insurance companies, they
take the time to proceed the payment due to many redundant issues. Even though
there is an agreement sign by both parties, from my view it is not fully monitored by
the hospital and followed by the partners. In the end there is no action taken to settle
the outstanding issue carefully.

3.2 Give at least two (2) recommendations on how the organization can
further improve (within the scope of the areas discussed in part 2 above)
