Case Study: Boston Children’s Health Physicians achieves simpler staffing budgets and faster reporting with Centage

Simplifying Complex Staffing Budgets for Boston Children’s Health Physicians

Boston Children’s Health Physicians, a healthcare organization managing budgets across nearly 70 cost centers, was struggling with fragile Excel workbooks and manual processes that made staffing and multi-division budgeting slow, error-prone, and hard to trust. Their lean finance team needed a better way to handle complex staffing models, rolling reports, and assumptions across locations, and turned to Centage for support.

Centage implemented driver-based staffing models, centralized forecasting, and consolidated reporting to replace linked spreadsheets and automate calculations such as revenue assumptions. The result was more reliable budgeting, real-time visibility for leadership, and hours saved each week by reducing manual fixes and spreadsheet breakage.
