In collaboration with First Health Advisory , Healthlink Advisors put together a perspective piece, Strategic ESG Investments Offer Long-Term Benefits for Health Systems. This article highlights the many financial and non-financial benefits healthcare entities gain when investing in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives. It’s undeniable that healthcare entities have a large impact on the communities they exist in. In order to make that impact positive both for the healthcare entity and for their local community, they must have a strategic ESG plan. The article outlines the components an Enterprise Health System ESG plan typically includes and why cyber governance is an important aspect of this plan.
