A 'magic equation' to unlock OR revenue

As hospitals and health systems face continuing financial difficulties and resource constraints, they must improve their capacity management and bolster their workforce to manage costs without compromising the quality of care or patient access.

The OR is a powerful place to begin this journey. ORs can generate up to 70% of a hospital's revenue and up to 40% of its expenses. The potential to drive further revenue in the OR through increased case volume, while optimizing resources and staff, is enormous.

This whitepaper offers healthcare leaders a roadmap to identify inefficiencies in the OR and beyond, and address them using a "magic equation" of AI-powered automation, workflow integration, and change management. The roadmap also includes case studies from Baptist Health (Jacksonville, FL)) and The University of Kansas Health System in Kansas City.

Key learnings:

• Best practices for using AI-powered automation, workflow integration, and change management, especially in the OR
• 10 ways to identify OR inefficiencies
• Real-world results:
• Baptist Health scheduled an average of 4 additional cases per day per hospital
• The University of Kansas Health System increased OR volume by 8%, despite a 7% decrease in available capacity
