SUMMARY:Industry Showcase Webinar: $73.8M in Annual Financial Benefits by Redirecting ED Visits - Results of an Economic Study
DESCRIPTION:Are your healthcare facilities grappling with the challenges of overcrowded Emergency Departments (EDs)\, overburdened care providers\, and limited patient access to timely care? These issues impact all stakeholders: patients struggle to access appropriate care\, hospitals face heightened operational demands\, and healthcare systems incur substantial costs due to non-urgent ED visits. \nThis session will showcase the results of a study that was conducted by Analysis Group\, one of the largest international economic consulting firms. The study evaluated the financial impacts of a Healthcare Orchestration Platform\, focusing on direct cost reductions associated with ER visits from a health system perspective. \nYou will gain an understanding of how a healthcare authority\, in collaboration with Petal\, a leading digital company\, successfully streamlined a series of processes aimed at reducing ED overcrowding. This session will highlight three strategic processes: 1) improving care access for unattached patients\, 2) ensuring timely appointments for urgent cases\, and 3) redirecting non-urgent visits away from EDs. These have collectively reduced over 800 ED visits per day – alleviating strain on hospitals\, improving patient flow\, and generating annual financial benefits of $73.8M. \nDiscover how a connected system that centralizes data from nearly 20 IT systems— including provincial authentication systems\, EMRs/EHRs\, and booking portals—can successfully optimize access to primary care and ensure patients receive appropriate care more efficiently. \nThis session will offer a unique opportunity for healthcare leaders to explore how strategic initiatives combined with innovative technology and intelligent processes can reshape care delivery and set new standards for sustainable\, patient-centred healthcare.
