The white paper begins with a summary of recent trends affecting healthcare delivery and hospitals. They include the following:
- The “pay for performance” environment
- Staff shortages, including a discussion of the aging workforce
- The economic downturn
- Healthcare reform
The paper also notes some performance challenges hospitals face as a result of these trends, including inefficiencies in OR scheduling and patient throughput as well as increased surgical demands and staff shortages.
Effective anesthesia management with a focus on clinical quality excellence can help hospitals meet these demands, according to the white paper. These benefits are highlighted through a discussion of the goals of anesthesia management, including dedicated leadership to OR efficiency through anesthesia services and defined performance improvement methodology.
