OpFlow’s comprehensive process ensures engagement of all teams within surgical services, from sterile processing to the OR.
Our virtual assessment process involves a data import from the hospital to determine reduction potentials with a unique ROI model. Cases and trays are targeted for on-site data collection, audit, and validation processes. Proposed streamlined configurations are validated through a series of service line and surgeon reviews, utilizing supporting empiric data and analytics.
OpFlow supports efforts in converting the approved trays, and finally transitions into sustainment to ensure the trays remain optimized over time.
Implementation
Majority of the product suite does not require IT integration or support.
Product can be tailored according to need, with pricing scheduled on an as-needed basis.
OpFlow staff available for product training or to run integration process.
Minimal time to value for hospital, with an estimated 4–5x ROI.
Careful use of multi-step audit to ensure all team members are comfortable with change, and sign-off by key service line team members.
Time to Value
Minimal time to value for the hospital and estimated 4–5x ROI.
The hospital can get a return on investment and value within 3 months through instrument tray rationalization, with full rationalization occurring between 12–36 months.
As additional OpFlow phases are activated, value is maintained via a robust sustainment module.
Sustainment
Avoids prior-state regression.
Lean-management and continuous improvement to retain product optimization for:
– Instrument trays
– Preference cards
– Disposable supplies
Dynamic ability to on-board new surgeons and update procedures, techniques, and preferences.
Sustainment process that maintains value for the hospital at minimal expense.
