Program Assessments

Independent visibility into your oncology service line. Practice measured against national guidance, one standard at every site, reported to executive leadership.

One standard across sites
Findings ranked by exposure
Board ready reporting
Why assess

Independent visibility above the department

Clinical risk

Confirm that what is planned is what is delivered, and that the checks meant to catch an error are performed and recorded, before an event puts the organization in front of a regulator or a plaintiff.

Regulatory exposure

Enter accreditation surveys and state inspections having already found and closed the gaps, rather than learning about them from a surveyor with a finding in hand.

Margin protection

Understand where the service line leaks, from documentation that does not support the claim through to capacity that goes unused, and what each leak is worth annually.

Evidence for the board

Give your quality committee, your payers, and your board independent third party evidence that the program performs to national standards, in a form they can review and minute.

Assessment areas

One framework, applied wherever you need it

Scope is set with your leadership before work begins: a single department, a cancer center, or an entire service line across a network.

Quality and safety

Quality and Safety Program

Confirming the program holds up under independent review

Review of how quality and safety are structured, documented, and sustained in the department, and whether the program would withstand external scrutiny.

Learn more
  • Quality assurance structure and documentation practice
  • Policies, procedures, and standard work
  • Equipment and technology oversight
  • Accreditation and regulatory readiness
  • Consistency of practice from site to site
Operations

Clinical Operations

Finding where the process breaks and where patients wait

Review of how care actually moves through the department, from referral or consult through completion, including the handoffs and checks the process depends on.

Learn more
  • Patient flow and time from referral to treatment
  • Handoffs and communication across roles
  • Verification and second check practice
  • Capacity, utilization, and throughput
  • Incident reporting and corrective action follow through
Workforce

Staffing and Coverage

Testing whether the department is staffed for the volume it carries

Review of how the department is staffed and supervised, and what happens to continuity when a key person leaves, retires, or is absent.

Learn more
  • Staffing model against current and projected volume
  • Coverage continuity, vacancy, and absence risk
  • Credentialing, supervision, and scope of practice
  • Onboarding, training, and competency records
  • Dependence on individuals rather than on process
Revenue integrity

Documentation and Revenue Integrity

Confirming the record supports what is billed

Review of whether clinical documentation supports the services delivered and billed, carried out with the TNM revenue integrity team.

Learn more
  • Documentation support for services delivered
  • Charge capture and coding accuracy
  • Denial patterns and their root causes
  • Payer and regulatory documentation requirements
  • Reporting and governance cadence
How an assessment works

A defined sequence, with a date attached to every step

The same six steps and the same scoring for every department and every size of organization, so one site is comparable to another and this year to last.

STEP 01

Scope and data request

We agree in writing on which sites, machines, techniques, and case volumes are in scope, then send a structured data request so each location knows exactly what to produce and by when.

STEP 02

Remote review

Plans, records, policies, and documentation are reviewed through a secure channel before anyone arrives on site, which keeps onsite time short.

STEP 03

Onsite review

Onsite work is scoped to what the review requires, and is carried out alongside your staff during normal operation rather than disrupting it.

STEP 04

Findings and ranking

Every finding is classified by clinical risk, compliance exposure, and effort to correct, which gives leadership a defensible basis for sequencing spend and attention.

STEP 05

Report and readout

You receive a written report, a readout for the executive sponsor, and a working session with the clinical teams, so leadership and the departments are working from the same document.

STEP 06

Follow up review

At an agreed interval, TNM re-reviews the open findings and confirms which corrective actions actually closed.

Deliverables

What you receive

  • A written assessment report with findings organized by area
  • Findings stated against the published guidance they reference
  • Findings ranked by patient safety risk, compliance exposure, and effort to correct
  • A corrective action plan with named owners and target dates
  • Policy and procedure templates for the gaps identified
  • An executive summary written for leadership and board review
  • A follow up review at an agreed interval to confirm closure
  • Site by site comparison across a network, and year over year trending on a recurring schedule

Independence

No equipment or software to sell, so no finding is shaped by a product line. Findings go to your leadership as written, and any work TNM could perform is disclosed in the report and may be sourced anywhere.

Confidentiality

Findings belong to the organization that commissioned them and are never shared with an accrediting body, regulator, payer, or used in marketing. A business associate agreement precedes any patient data.

Engagement options

Three ways to engage

Single assessment

One area, one site

A defined review of a single area, commonly commissioned before a program launch, ahead of an accreditation survey, or following a change in leadership. Fixed scope, fixed deliverable, fixed fee.

Program assessment

Multiple areas, one report

Several assessments run together and reported as one document, so leadership sees how a physics gap, a workflow gap, and a documentation gap compound into a single operational and financial problem.

Enterprise program

Every site, one standard

A recurring assessment calendar across the network under one scoring standard, with a named TNM lead, site by site comparison, year over year trending, and standing reporting into your quality committee and board.
