Small efficiencies in an operating room can add up to substantial time and cost savings, according to an article on the Healthcare Construction + Operations website.
Efficient staffing and block scheduling, the standardization of OR equipment, supply and technology considerations, and layout optimization are three strategies that help improve OR scheduling and operations, the article said.
The more efficient a hospital is with OR time, the less revenue they will lose on costs of labor and facilities.
The most cost-effective staffing solutions are based on predictive analytics, which analyze data in hospital’s high-traffic departments.
