A business case plan (BCP) provides a structured framework for evidence-based, transparent business decisions. It is an essential tool that when written well will provide you with the means to translate the cost and benefits of nursing practice proposals, often related in anecdotal terms, into quantifiable, evidence-based terms outlining return on investment and business advantages of investing in nursing initiatives. The BCP should include an analysis of the problem and associated needs, the proposed solutions with options, goals for success, implementation, and evaluation plans, as well as a risk-adjusted cost-benefit analysis. It contains the necessary information to allow decision makers to make well-informed decisions regarding resource allocation. As clinical experts seeking to compete for finite resources in the health care arena, nursing leadership must bridge the language gap between nursing and business finance. This article outlines the required elements of the BCP to provide you with a practical working definition of each element to support your future initiatives in the business of health care improvement.
商业案例计划 (BCP) 为基于证据、透明的商业决策提供了一个结构化的框架。它是一个必不可少的工具，如果写得好，它将为您提供一种手段，将护理实践提案的成本和收益（通常以轶事的形式提出）转化为可量化的、基于证据的术语，概述投资于护理计划的投资回报和商业优势。BCP 应包括对问题和相关需求的分析、提出的解决方案和选项、成功目标、实施和评估计划，以及风险调整后的成本效益分析。它包含了决策者在资源分配方面做出明智决策所需的信息。作为寻求在医疗保健领域竞争有限资源的临床专家，护理领导层必须弥合护理和商业财务之间的语言鸿沟。本文概述了 BCP 的必备要素，为您提供每个要素的实用工作定义，以支持您在医疗保健改善业务方面的未来计划。
