“Building off the tremendous success with our inaugural Transform event this past summer, we’re pleased to bring back our hospital operations summit to provide attendees with the actionable insights and resources needed to provide meaningful change that will reduce costs and transform the healthcare experience for providers and patients alike,” said Mohan Giridharadas, LeanTaaS Founder and CEO. “Transform will feature leading health system executives who will be discussing some of the most pressing issues facing the healthcare industry today, including optimizing asset utilization, why digital transformation is necessary to stay competitive, and transforming operations for operating rooms, infusion centers, and inpatient beds.”

The past two years have been historically disruptive for healthcare. Hospitals and health systems were especially hard hit, grappling with the effects of COVID-19 and now facing a critical staff shortage. Effectively managing schedules and maximizing capacity in the OR, infusion centers, and inpatient bed units has become more important than ever. The industry must rely on predictive analytics tools to help providers manage these critical resources smoothly, efficiently, and according to cutting-edge lean principles.
