Industry Challenge

Leading ORs is demanding, given multiple competing priorities and stakeholders.

  • Established Surgeons with block time are often using only a portion of the time they have reserved, and when they decide to release unused time, it’s often at the last minute.
  • Newer Surgeons are constantly requesting more OR access, and if they cannot be accommodated, will likely take their cases to a competing health system.
  • OR Teams are responsible for filling last-minute releases of OR time and engaging high-priority surgeons to get them the access they need, constantly making phone calls and juggling multiple screens in the EHR.
  • System Leadership is depending on a high functioning and profitable perioperative business to fund necessary investments and hit high priority strategic growth objectives.

It’s time for a new approach.
