Case Study: Banner Health Achieves 7x ROI with Qventus Surgical Scheduling Optimization

Banner Health boosts OR utilization 6.3% with Qventus

Banner Health, a regional integrated delivery network in Arizona, faced challenges in maximizing its operating room (OR) utilization to meet growing patient demand. Manual scheduling processes and significant amounts of unused, unreleased block time made it difficult to find available OR time. They sought a technology solution from Qventus that could integrate with their Cerner EHR to solve these issues.

Qventus deployed its AI-powered Perioperative Solution to automate the surgical scheduling process. The solution used machine learning to identify and release unused block time and proactively fill open slots with the best-fit cases. This implementation resulted in a 7x ROI for Banner Health, releasing 369 hours of block time monthly, increasing primetime utilization by 6.3%, and adding 13 robotic cases per month.
