Healthcare turnaround and transformation with a different mindset.
Public and private healthcare organisations are constantly seeking to deliver more with less. Balancing competing stakeholder interests, funding priorities and delivering sustainable improvements.
As departments, agencies and private healthcare providers strive to increase efficiency and improve patient outcomes, our approach can assist by driving rapid and focused improvement of cultural, financial and operational productivity.
How we can help you
We provide commercially focused and strategic advisory services.
-
We provide clients commercially focused, strategic and financial advisory services, including business plan reviews, where we independently assess the strategic plans and financial outlook of health sector organisations.
-
We assist with diagnosing, planning and implementing end-to-end organisational turnaround or transformation of health organisations and networks. Our team supports healthcare organisations under intense financial, media or political pressure, who need to act quickly to protect their performance and reputation.
-
We can design and implement changes to organisational structure and human resources practice to deliver substantive changes, including modelling clinical and labour framework scenarios aligned to operational needs, funding sources and financial objectives. We also assist with industrial relations challenges.
-
We review and improve processes, policies and procedures and develop detailed ground up budgets and forecasts, design and implement procurement controls to rapidly reduce spending, including support functions such as team structuring, organisational controls and management and risk reporting.
-
We prepare and implement cost reduction strategies and streamline operations. We facilitate performance meetings for clinical and operational departments focused on clear and measurable KPIs and structured reporting.
-
We leverage our extensive experience with complex stakeholder management at all levels (including government, financial, political and media) helping guide organisations through sensitive and high‑risk transformations.
Our experience

Central Adelaide Local Health Network
KordaMentha was engaged to undertake a diagnostic review of South Australia's largest public healthcare network, CALHN, a circa $2 billion organisation with five main hospitals.
The review uncovered a broken organisation facing systemic financial, operational and cultural issues. Forecasts indicated that CALHN would incur a $274 million cash loss in the 12-month outlook period.
In a manner that I have not previously seen implemented as effectively, KordaMentha bring a creative, lateral and pragmatic approach to addressing many of the challenges in public healthcare.
