“As the healthcare industry continues to grapple with lingering effects of the pandemic, it’s no secret that health systems need to do more with less while also prioritizing the valuable time and wellbeing of staff,” said Mohan Giridharadas, LeanTaaS founder and CEO. “We’re looking forward to our June Transform event, as it will focus on critical healthcare issues and how AI can support hardworking hospital leaders. This event will provide all attendees with the resources needed to compete and thrive by using smarter capacity management decisions every single day.”
The past year has been historically disruptive for healthcare, and hospitals and health systems were especially hard hit. Effectively managing schedules and maximizing capacity in the OR, infusion centers, and inpatient bed units has become more important than ever. The industry must embrace predictive analytics tools to help providers manage these critical resources smoothly, efficiently, and according to cutting-edge lean principles.
