Hospital Improvement Plan. 9.7.1 Development of an Improvement Plan. If, as part of a Performance Improvement Process, the Funder requires the Hospital to develop an Improvement Plan, the process for the development and management of the Improvement Plan is as follows: The Hospital will submit the Improvement Plan to the Funder within 30 Days of receiving the Funder’s request. In the Improvement Plan, the Hospital will identify remedial actions and milestones for monitoring performance improvement and the date by which the Hospital expects to meet its obligations. Within 15 business Days of its receipt of the Improvement Plan, the Funder will advise the Hospital which, if any, remedial actions the Hospital should implement immediately. If the Funder is unable to approve the Improvement Plan as presented by the Hospital, subsequent approvals will be provided as the Improvement Plan is revised to the satisfaction of the Funder. The Hospital will implement all aspects of the Improvement Plan for which it has received written approval from the Funder, upon receipt of such approval. The Hospital will report quarterly on progress under the Improvement Plan, unless the Funder advises the Hospital to report on a more frequent basis. If Hospital performance under the Improvement Plan does not improve by the timelines in the Improvement Plan, the Funder may agree to revisions to the Improvement Plan. The Funder may require, and the Hospital will permit and assist the Funder in conducting, a Review of the Hospital to assist the Funder in its consideration and approval of the Improvement Plan. The Hospital will pay the costs of this Review.
