Ardent Health, based in Brentwood, Tenn., partnered with Qventus, an AI-based software provider, to optimize its robotics program and surgical access.
The AI markets operating room time to surgeons based on personalized surgeon patterns and objectives, aiming to increase OR capacity and reduce patient wait times. It has improved surgical access and efficiency and delivered a 7x annualized ROI, according to an Oct. 3 press release from Qventus.
The system prioritizes minimally-invasive robotics cases, predicts unused block time, advertises open time slots based on surgeon preferences and capabilities and provides market insights.
