Discover how using a modern clinical communication platform can improve patient satisfaction throughout the perioperative process.
A recent study noted that 40 – 50 million surgeries take place in the US yearly. The list of patients needing surgery in the OR is getting longer, which is why First Case On-Time Starts for the first surgery of the day are so critical. The more delayed the first surgery, the greater the backlog throughout the day. This causes frustration among staff and patients, drives unnecessary costs, and can impact patient care. Integrated communication and collaboration in this environment are critical to getting things started off right.
The Operating Room (OR) is a key success metric of any hospital – with the average operating room costing $21 – $133 per minute, it’s imperative to hospital revenue that OR costs are kept low. It’s also one of the most important departments, with OR speed and efficiency critical to serving more patients and improving patient outcomes. TigerConnect can help speed turnover times in the OR– accelerating communication, boosting collaboration, and reducing errors and delays across the surgical team.
