Strapped for money and time, many rural hospitals could be tempted by temporary fixes to their financial struggles. Strategic planning helps develop a broader, long-range blueprint for survival. Its steps include making financial evaluations of services; undertaking market and patient origin studies; assessing competitors; involving community leaders; and defining possibilities for joint projects and facility mergers.

Administrators can use such techniques as product line management, flexible budgeting, and portfolio management to incorporate strategic and financial planning into daily operations.
