Dr. Goldberger shared the following tip:

“There is often a ‘knee-jerk’ response of opening up all supplies ahead of a case. But even the basic supplies used in a procedure can differ depending on the case’s particulars. Whenever possible, try opening supplies only when they’re needed. Enlisting cooperating of your surgeons and clinical staff could really minimize your expenses.”
