1. Anonymous: You should consider opening another operating room when you hit 65 percent utilization of a current room. We have found it hard to fill more time than 65 percent of the schedule because no one wants the other hours.
2. Anonymous: When you are at 85 percent full on your schedule, and have run out of open block time, it is time to look at an additional room and additional equipment.
The additional equipment and staff should be justified with revenue in that room to be re-cooped within a year’s time or less.
