“The biggest problem I see today in anesthesia is a supply/demand problem,” Dr. Hayes said in a news release. “The supply is low, and the demand is high. This leads to burnout among providers. Also there is a perception that existing national providers are taking advantage of anesthesia providers, i.e. long hours and low compensation.”

Dr. Hayes said he hopes to use his background in engineering and mathematics to make anesthesia scheduling more efficient.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
