Product stickers on scrubs. Barcode scanners that only work some of the time. Manual entry into Epic after the case is over. This is what our team has seen spending time inside dozens of health systems across the US and Canada. A patchwork of workarounds to document what was actually used in the OR and other high cost areas. That patchwork is trying to solve a massive problem. Supply chain is the largest cost category for most health systems after labor, and the OR is often the biggest driver within it. But the data coming out of it is still incomplete or unreliable. And without that, you can’t manage cost, performance, or outcomes. Lisa Israelovitch joined Karen Jagoda on the Empowered Patient Podcast to talk about what it takes to fix this problem in a way that sticks: designing solutions that work inside the clinical workflow, not around it, and the results that follow. Clinicians stay focused on the patient and room, leaders can finally trust the data. 🎧 Listen here: https://lnkd.in/eJrZeVuD #HealthcareSupplyChain #PerioperativeLeadership #ComputerVision #AssistIQ
