What You Should Know: 

– Banner Health, a leading non-profit health system, has chosen the Qventus Perioperative Solution to streamline surgical scheduling and improve operating room (OR) utilization.

– This technology has resulted in significant benefits, including increased access to ORs, strategic growth in case volume, and actionable real-time insights – all while maintaining high-quality patient care.

Double-Digit ROI Leads to Enterprise-Wide Implementation

The initial success of the Qventus solution, including a double-digit return on investment (ROI), has prompted Banner Health to expand its use across the entire organization. This demonstrates the positive impact Qventus has had on Banner’s surgical efficiency and overall financial performance.

Real-Time Visibility and Scheduling Optimization

Qventus provides surgical teams with real-time access to OR schedules through a bi-directional integration with Banner’s Epic Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. This comprehensive view allows for scheduling procedures in time slots that might otherwise go unused, maximizing OR utilization.

Data-Driven Insights for Strategic Decision Making

The Qventus solution leverages predictive analytics and a vast dataset, including exclusive external market data, to generate actionable insights. This information empowers Banner’s leadership team to make strategic decisions that improve OR utilization and ultimately allow them to care for more patients.

AI-Powered Efficiency and Streamlined Workflows

By combining artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, personalization, and automation, Qventus reduces the burden on staff by eliminating manual scheduling tasks.  The system’s recommendations are automatically aligned with Banner’s strategic objectives, ensuring efficient workflows and optimized resource allocation.

Improved Patient Care and Strategic Growth

The Qventus Perioperative Solution has empowered Banner Health to achieve several key objectives:

  • Increased OR Access: More patients have access to vital surgical procedures due to improved scheduling efficiency.
  • Enhanced Patient Care: Streamlined workflows free up staff resources to focus on delivering high-quality patient care.
  • Strategic Growth: Banner is able to strategically expand its surgical case volume with data-driven insights.
  • Financial Optimization: The double-digit ROI demonstrates the solution’s positive impact on Banner’s bottom line.

“Surgical demand is on the rise,” said Dr. Nirav Patel, Medical Director, Surgical and Procedural Services, Banner Health. “Qventus automations helped us identify where OR time was going unused, freeing up those spaces for patients who need it. Their technology has improved our efficiencies, allowing us to predict and meet the evolving needs of our patients seeking timely, compassionate care.”
