Comprehensive performance management in the operating room.
A clearly defined method for measuring and analyzing operating room (OR) processes provides a common language for focusing management's attention on areas of variability that can be eliminated. But hospitals must also assess OR performance against multiple financial aid and clinical quality metrics to achieve continuous improvement in patient outcomes and profitability enterprisewide. This project is a collaborative effort by McKesson Information Solutions and the Healthcare Financial Management Association.
