Effective health care organizations recognize the importance of monitoring the implementation of a strategy as well as ongoing operations.

What steps would need to be followed to set up a good strategy monitoring and adjustment program in this scenario?
Prepare a list of approximately eight financial and nonfinancial metrics that you would propose for monitoring in the hypothetical scenario you have developed. Include the sources you would use to gather the necessary data.
Think of an example of something that might be discovered during the strategic monitoring program you are proposing. What adjustments might be made in response?
