Business performance management enhances OR efficiency

Picis Extelligence® OR, part of the CareSuite® family of high-acuity solutions, provides best practice OR analysis. Perioperative service directors and others can view the truth about OR block utilization; case costs and times; the impact of surgeons, services and procedures; and stock items and implants. Dynamic drilling and filtering let OR leadership see what’s going on behind the numbers. Cross-facility analysis is built-in, so users can benchmark and monitor the business performance of different sites. It is easy to identify good practice and areas of potential improvement through the richness of the Picis OR Manager data.

OR executives can drill through the data to determine trends, monitor key performance indicators and evaluate everything from physician performance to OR suite utilization. Users can stop speculating and defend decisions with confidence and real numbers. Extelligence OR drives process improvements and enables organizations to transform the business of high-acuity care. 

Dispel myth and rumor with powerful reporting

Extelligence OR provides standard key performance indicators and allows access to all OR Manager data, including user-defined fields. Extelligence OR brings a formal structure to the statistics, helping organizations keep the peace between surgeons, nurses and anesthesiologists, and avoid abuse of the OR schedule. Extelligence OR allows users to conduct a complete analysis of:

• Patient information
• Case times and milestones
• Stock, items and implants
• Procedures and secondary procedures
• Surgeon service and sub-service
• Primary surgeon and assistant
• Information in user-defined fields

Enhanced utilization reporting capabilities are also available that provide access to information on times, punctuality and case indicators.

Analysis on your desktop

At the fingertips of the perioperative service team are a best practice report library, easy-to-use analysis tools and integration with Microsoft® Excel® and PowerPoint®. Extelligence OR provides an end to manual number-crunching that takes too much time and is prone to error. Best practice reports included in Extelligence OR assist users in improving efficiency by analyzing trends in block utilization, case costs, surgeon and room utilization, and turnover rates. Categories of best practice reports include:

• Block utilization
• Booking
• Case cost analysis
• Case information
• Delayed cases
• Room utilization

Have it your way with flexible reports

Healthcare facilities can diminish the caregivers’ reliance on IT by allowing them to drill within the reports to discover trends, evaluate physician performance and analyze OR suite utilization. There is no longer a need to send a report request to IT and then wait days or weeks for it to be created.

With report filters already set up in the best practice report library, users can change a report from analyzing block utilization by surgeon to looking at it by service with a single click. Observing a high overall case cost for a particular service, OR executives can drill down to see which procedure or surgeon is the culprit. If they want to bring a new analysis field like patient gender into the report, they can simply drag it from the library. The intuitive user interface makes it easy to view, modify, and create reports, as well as to analyze trends, performance indicators, and root causes.
