About
There is not a one-size-fits-all approach for effectively managing blocks. Each health system has its own unique structure, goals, and changing circumstances. Dynamic block management supports hospitals in unlocking their OR capacity and evolves with an organization: if they are recovering from a surgical backlog, or deciding to shift their block ownership model, or undergoing a reorganization to expand specific service lines.

In this webinar, we will review case studies and consider best practices from leading hospitals to understand how each has applied dynamic block management in their own journey to maximize OR scheduling efficiency and drive strategic growth.
