Situation

A new medical university, research institute, and tertiary hospital needed to move from founder vision to an executable institutional model.

02

Challenge

The assignment required aligning academic medicine, research governance, clinical services, and future operating models into one credible launch blueprint.

03

Action

1

Demand & capacity analysis

Grounded in demographics, epidemiology, new care delivery models, and the UMC's positioning as a referral centre.

2

A new national care delivery concept

Built on a deliberate split between acute care and elective care.

3

A new national elective care concept

Designed from the ground up to serve planned, lower-complexity care at scale.

4

Site selection & capacity maximisation

A two-channel model that maximises designed capacity across elective and acute care.tical transformation programme.

04

Result

The institutional blueprint was approved and the implementation programme was initiated.

01

Fit for future demand, grounded in the demand and capacity analysis.

02

Maximised hospital capacity through the new care concept separating elective and complex-care locations.

03

Maximised use of scarce capacity — workforce and infrastructure — via a highly structured deployment.

04

Process management focused on implementing the new concepts and securing acceptance across clinical staff.

THE MODEL

A two-channel care model

Separating acute & complex care from elective care — so scarce workforce and infrastructure are deployed where they create the most capacity.
