About
Amid staffing challenges faced throughout the health system in the first half of 2022, Gundersen’s perioperative department further experienced capacity constraints and lacked access to real-time visibility into key data to make actionable decisions. To address these challenges, the organization launched an AI-based solution to provide visible data and tools to right-size block allocation, repurpose unused time, and streamline the scheduling process.

Join Gundersen’s Clinical Operations Director to hear how forming a true partnership with a proven industry technology team to achieve operational excellence through the use of predictive and prescriptive analytics has now empowered leaders to make better informed decisions. Key results include:

● 8% increase in prime time utilization
● 9% increase in staffed room utilization
● 8% increase in block utilization
● 14% increase in prime time robot utilization
● 76% increase in manually released minutes

60-minute webinar
Agenda
  • Describe the specific operational issues that prevent effective surgical block utilization.
  • Identify levers to release open time and improve availability.
  • Understand the impact of visible, accurate, and accessible data on leaders, surgeons, and scheduler functions.
