Restoring Elective Surgery Caseload Post COVID-19: Use the Right Tools to Accommodate Pent-up Volume
Monday, October 11th, 2021
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM CT (10am Phoenix)
Flexing OR capacity and safely recovering elective surgery backlogs continues to be a priority for hospital leadership during these tumultuous times.
Through a partnership with perioperative leaders and hospital C-suites across the country, LeanTaaS provides hospitals visibility into their backlogs, streamlines the OR scheduling and block management processes, and unlocks OR capacity to accommodate pent-up volume given each hospital’s available resources – rooms, staffing, locations and more.
In this webinar, learn how to:
- Flex/create more open time in ORs, ASCs, and procedure rooms/endoscopy suites
- Effectively communicate OR availability to surgeons offices/clinics, far more efficiently than phone and fax
- “Right-size” blocks in a fair and surgeon-centric manner
Presenters:
Ashley Walsh, MHA – Vice President Client Services iQueue for Operating Rooms & iQueue for Inpatient Beds
Zetong Li, Senior Director – Product Management LeanTaaS
Mandates, boosters and pediatric vaccines: How to successfully manage the next phase of COVID-19 vaccination
Click HERE to Register
If the mood of the initial COVID-19 vaccine rollout felt exuberant, the sentiment heading into fall feels more daunting against the backdrop of the Delta variant and ongoing vaccine hesitancy. Healthcare organizations need to manage those challenges while also figuring out effective ways to administer boosters, navigate vaccine mandates, and provide vaccines to kids 12 and over — and likely kids under 12 soon.
Luckily, we can lean on best practices from this past spring and summer to successfully tackle the tasks ahead. In this webinar, physician leaders and COVID-19 vaccination experts will share lessons from earlier efforts to ensure equitable, timely and efficient vaccine distribution in the coming months.
Key learning points:
- Best practices for adapting to changing guidance and policies
- Actionable strategies for overcoming vaccine hesitancy among healthcare workers, adults and parents
- Methods for incentivizing primary care and pediatric practices to vaccinate against COVID-19, especially in vaccine deserts
Presenters:
Kavita Patel, MD
Fellow and Managing Director in the Center for Health Policy at the Brookings Institution; frequent guest expert on NPR, CBS, NBC, and MSNBC; Primary Care Physician; and former Director of Policy for the Obama Administration
Rebecca Weintraub, MD
Assistant Professor of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Leader of the COVID-19 Vaccine Delivery response at Ariadne Labs, and Physician at Brigham and Women’s Hospital
Hilary Hatch, PhD
Chief Clinical Officer at Phreesia, Instructor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins, and Faculty at the Psychoanalytic Association of NY (PANY) affiliated with NYU Langone Health
