Today, 3D modeling and printing technology can make a dramatic impact — even shortening some operations by 30-90 minutes. Looking ahead, that reduction will only grow as the technology is further integrated and becomes more advanced.
When demand fluctuates, even slightly, the margin for error becomes clear – highlighting the urgent need for greater efficiency to meet rising procedural demand.
We have the opportunity to design systems that give people greater capacity for the work where human presence matters most: listening, understanding, reassuring, deciding, and caring.
The question is where will healthcare see the greatest value? Here are five use cases that define the greatest ROI for leveraging agentic AI for clinical supply chain operations.
The future of surgery will be shaped less by what our tools can do than by how well our systems help humans think when it matters most. The question is no longer whether the OR will evolve. It’s who will lead the transition
Apella raised an $80 million Series B funding round to expand its AI-powered platform designed to help hospitals optimize their operating rooms. The startup’s tool promises to boost surgical volume, reduce clinician burnout and improve patient access without adding new staff or facilities.
A future where ambient technology is integrated across all hospital spaces — patient rooms, ORs, even waiting areas — will revolutionize decision-making to improve care.
We are taking a look at how health insurers are using AI, defining success, and managing cybersecurity risks. Give us your opinions by completing our brief, anonymous survey.
Corvus, a Chicago-based startup aiming to simplify the surgical referrals process, announced its launch. The company’s AI platform helps healthcare teams manage inbound surgical referrals more efficiently, ensuring patients are routed to the right treatment while also optimizing operating room utilization.
As operating environments become more complex, every element and system must be reliable, safe, and compliant with the web of regulations. Testing is the antidote to address these issues, however, this presents a significant testing burden. Here are some key challenges.
Contrary to fears of clinician replacement, AI’s near-term potential lies in complementing human expertise, particularly by handling behind-the-scenes tasks that improve efficiency and precision. Here’s where we might see the most impact.
Caresyntax closed a $180 million Series C extension round, bringing its Series C fundraising total to $310 million. The company sells AI-based precision surgery technology that unifies operating room data on a single platform.
Healthcare decision-makers, especially at pharmaceutical companies, must prioritize patient input. Data collected from social media listening is a significant step in the right direction.
The integration of AI and human skills is poised to revolutionize surgical practices.
Banner Health is deploying Qventus’ perioperative technology across the entire organization following the success of an initial pilot. The software integrates with EHRs and uses machine learning to automate operating room scheduling processes and maximize surgical caseloads.
After adopting Qventus’ perioperative solution, Allina Health has seen significant gains in surgical case volume and operating room efficiency in just a few months of using the software. The health system's vice president of surgical services and orthopedics recommended that other health systems adopt automation technology. He said the ROI was clear, but the health system declined to provide actual dollar figures.
As hospitals continue to battle healthcare’s workforce shortage and high levels of staff turnover, capacity is a significant pain point. When it comes to technology to help optimize capacity management, hospital leaders want solutions that can automatically identify and prioritize patients who are ready for discharge using real-time data, according to a new report.
Manual processes and inadequate analytics frequently prevent hospitals from achieving OR revenue and utilization goals. By using automation, behavioral science, and comprehensive real-world data, hospitals can unleash the full potential of their OR enterprises and supercharge perioperative growth.
