According to the report, the perioperative environment accounts for an average of 70 percent of hospital revenue, 60 percent of hospital margin and more than 50 percent of medical errors.
According to SIS, hospitals are increasingly adopting perioperative IT to reduce costs, improve care and maximize margins where possible to fund less profitable programs. Healthcare leaders communicated in the survey that systems that deliver additional operational and clinical efficiencies are increasingly expected in the perioperative setting.
