Mr. Mira shared three reasons anesthesia providers have influence:

1. Anesthesia generates more useful, accessible data about ORs and delivery suites than other departments.

2. Anesthesia providers play a pivotal role in ensuring a safe, comfortable surgical and obstetric experience.

3. Anesthesia providers have a keen eye for operational inefficiencies and potential solutions.
