Minute-by-Minute Coordination: How ORControl™ Ensures Operational Productivity in the Face of Disruptions

Minute-by-minute coordination systems are critical in healthcare to immediately address the disruptions that constantly arise.

You start each day with a great schedule, best practices, and a well-trained staff, but within 10 minutes unexpected disruptions occur (a patient ate before surgery, a case cart is missing, a surgeon is late, ...). The result is your schedule and staff are thrown into disarray. A minute-by-minute coordination system gets your entire hospital back on track, so that you do not lose time, money, or patient safety.

In the fast-paced environment of healthcare, maintaining productivity in the face of unexpected disruptions is paramount. ORControl™ is a minute-by-minute coordination system, offering the flexibility to manage cases and adapt schedules on the fly. In the event of a ransomware attack like recently experienced by Ascension, traditional systems grind to a halt, leaving healthcare providers unable to operate efficiently, if at all. Fortunately, in facilities outfitted with ORControl™, staff were able to continue performing surgeries and procedures efficiently while maintaining patient care standards and case volume. Moreover, ORControl™ goes beyond managing disruptions. It facilitates communication and coordination across silos, developing cooperation and team building across a multitude of service lines and out-of-departments.

In an industry where every minute counts and patient safety is paramount, ORControl™ stands out. It empowers frontline providers to deliver high quality care with confidence, even in the face of constant disruptions and adversity.

ORControl™ is currently operational in over 60 healthcare facilities across the United States and Europe, including the top four hospital systems in the U.S. – HCA, Ascension, Common Spirit, and the VA. Its widespread adoption underscores its effectiveness in ensuring productivity, and setting the standard for quality care delivery in challenging circumstances.
