LeanTaaS Launches iQueue for Surgical Clinics, Delivering the Industry’s First End‑to‑End Surgical Coordination Platform

Unveiled live at Transform, LeanTaaS’ hospital operations summit, the new product embeds key case building, managing, and scheduling capabilities integrated with clinic EHRs to drive better patient access, more surgeries, and smarter operations.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — June 10, 2025 — LeanTaaS, Inc., the market leader in AI‑powered, cloud‑based capacity management, staffing, and patient‑flow software for healthcare, today unveiled iQueue for Surgical Clinics, the industry’s first end-to-end surgical coordination platform from the clinic’s front door to the hospital’s operating rooms (ORs). Announced live at Transform Hospital Operations Summit before 5,000+ healthcare decision makers, this milestone marks a pivotal moment for LeanTaaS. Already optimizing 4 million surgeries annually across the U.S., the company is now bringing its proven OR-optimization science upstream to surgical clinics — transforming operational efficiency at the start of the surgical journey. 

Every year surgical clinics lose up to 35% of potential cases due to breakdowns in surgical coordination, prior authorization, and patient readiness — costing clinics, hospitals, and ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs) millions in revenue and eroding patient experience. Burnt out surgical staff are overwhelmed juggling onerous authorizations, chasing labs and clearances, and optimizing higher complexity patients. Additionally, over half of orthopedic and other surgical-subspecialty physicians are still in private practice, and when surgeons work outside the system, even modest workflow friction can leak top-margin surgeries to competing sites. With iQueue for Surgical Clinics coordinating end-to-end patient management from the surgical clinic all the way to the OR in real-time, it creates a seamless workflow for surgical cases to enter the system — cleanly, quickly, and efficiently. 

Early adopters across the country report:

  • 10% total case growth, recovering up to 72% of previously lost surgeries
  • $300K in additional revenue per surgeon per year
  • 250+ uncompensated surgeon hours reclaimed annually
  • 75 % reduction in administrative burden, including reducing coding errors

“Surgical clinics are the entry point for many patients to the surgical workflow and represent the financial and operational front door to the OR,” said Rami Karjian, Head of Operating Rooms Business at LeanTaaS. “With iQueue for Surgical Clinics, health systems can now simplify the end-to-end workflow at the point of care. By eliminating the ‘black-box’ inefficiencies that plague case coordination, iQueue for Surgical Clinics drives better patient access, more surgeries, and smarter operations — benefiting patients, surgeons, and the bottom line.” 

Seamlessly integrated with iQueue for Operating Rooms, the solution creates healthcare’s first end-to-end surgical coordination platform that effortlessly manages a patient’s journey through to surgery while matching supply with demand. Its four AI‑powered modules — intelligent case‑building (including AI to support case coding), real‑time readiness tracking, proactive patient outreach, and pipeline analytics — run within a single EHR‑embedded workflow, providing real‑time visibility, automating hand‑offs, and surfacing bottlenecks before they disrupt the schedule. Built‑in intelligence flags missing consents, authorizations, and inpatient-only procedures well before the case hits the OR roster — reducing denials, write-offs, and last‑minute cancellations. In addition, engagement tools include automated SMS texts and emails to providers.

Chapter 1: The Looming Challenge

If you work in the healthcare industry, or even if you’re just an interested observer, you don’t need a book to tell you that the financial pressure is on as never before. A perfect storm of circumstances is swirling together, one that will make survivability, not to mention profitability, a greater challenge for healthcare companies than we’ve seen in the modern era.

As with banks, retailers, and airlines, which had to rapidly enhance their brick-and-mortar footprints with robust online business models—it is the early movers eager to gain new efficiencies that will thrive and gain market share. The slow-to-move and the inefficient will end up being consolidated into larger health systems seeking to expand their geographical footprints.

The pressures on healthcare

Let’s look at just a few of the looming challenges healthcare must meet head-on.

An aging population

By the year 2030, the number of adults sixty-five years of age or older will exceed the number of children eighteen years or younger in the United States. We are living longer than our parents did. Positive news for sure, but problematic for several reasons.

The older we get, the more medical help we need. Older people have more chronic diseases. By 2025, nearly 50 percent of the population will suffer from one or more chronic diseases that will require ongoing medical intervention. This combination of an aging population and an increase in chronic diseases will create a ballooning demand for healthcare services.
