EAST NORRITON, PA (March 27, 2006) -- ActiveStrategy, Inc. (www.activestrategy.com), the leading provider of complete Enterprise Strategy Execution solutions, announced that TriHealth, a nationally-recognized healthcare system based in Cincinnati, has selected ActiveStrategy to help develop an aligned framework of Balanced Scorecards, which will then be deployed and automated using ActiveStrategy Enterprise software.

“TriHealth was formed by joining two major hospitals and more than 50 outpatient locations. Though the new organization has excelled in the ten years since this relationship began, the organization is now focusing on transforming from a hospital system to a health system, which will help them better meet the needs of the various customers and communities they serve. ActiveStrategy is excited to be able to help TriHealth execute this strategic goal,” explained Jack Steele, Chairman and CEO of ActiveStrategy.

At the heart of the strategic transformation will be the organization’s Balanced Scorecard framework. This framework, which ActiveStrategy will be helping to develop, will consist of multiple layers of “cascaded” Balanced Scorecards, which will ultimately align the entire organization to the key top-level strategic objectives and performance measures. It will also assist TriHealth in reporting its quality measures in a more easy to understand format, an issue most hospitals and health systems are currently facing.

Kathye Habig, Director of Performance Improvement for TriHealth, will serve as the project architect to ensure a smooth implementation and organizational adoption of the new processes.

TriHealth is a community partnership of Bethesda and Good Samaritan Hospitals, with more than 8,000 employees. TriHealth has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Most Integrated Healthcare Systems eight times in the last nine years by Verispan, an independent healthcare management firm. Additionally, TriHealth was recognized for two consecutive years as among the 100 Best Companies for Working Mothers by Working Mother Magazine. The system was also named one of the Top 100 “Most Wired” Hospitals in the country based on the annual Survey and Benchmarking Study conducted by Hospitals and Health Networks, a publication of the American Hospital Association.
