AbstractFor hospitals to survive the challenges of their turbulent environment, they must build stronger links between their planning and budgeting processes. Hospitals have traditionally experienced a gap between their long-range plans and short-range budgets. This article examines the scope, nature, and causes of this gap; clarifies the need to bridge this gap; and then discusses three major initiatives (missing links) to bridge the gap. Implications of these missing links for the hospital's board, physicians, managers, and systems are also described.
