Academic medical centers, particularly in urban environments, can struggle to balance the demand for operating room time between their main medical center and satellite locations. The University of Utah Health (UoU Health), a regional academic health care system comprising five hospitals and 11 neighborhood health centers, had to accommodate a quickly growing population in metro areas as well as a post-COVID surgical case backlog. To do so by allowing for more same-day, outpatient procedures, UoU Health invested in ambulatory surgical care (ASC) locations.
In this session, join the UoU Health’s Senior Business Operations Director and Manager of Business Operations to learn how their collaborative incentive program motivated surgeons to release more time and operate more efficiently at two new ambulatory surgical center locations that opened with minimal engagement and surgeon interest. With the support of LeanTaaS’ AI-powered iQueue for Operating Rooms solution to promote surgeon incentives, provide easy tools to release time, and show utilization data, the UoU Health grew utilization at the ASC locations, and thus opened higher surgical capacity, within months.
Hear how UoU Health began building their collaborative incentive program by assessing the landscape of their new locations, identified key stakeholders to participate in their utilization programs, and determined the most useful metrics to measure their success.
