Data analytics can help drive efficiency in the operating room, from relaying productivity, examining cost by case and implementing decision support. However, recognizing quality data and implementing analytics in a way that will evoke a positive response from surgeons, anesthesiologists and OR staff can be challenging. These were some of the top issues with data analytics in the OR that panelists discussed at Becker's Hospital Review 2nd Annual Health IT + Clinical Leadership + Pharmacy conference.

panel discussion
Robotic surgery is attractive to patients and surgeons alike. These procedures can result in quicker postoperative discharge and lower levels of postsurgical pain. Performing them in the ASC setting has the added benefit of lowering costs for payers. At Becker's ASC Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, Intuitive sponsored a workshop to explore the role of robotic surgery in the ASC. Jeremy Parcells, MD, a general and bariatric surgeon with Surgical Associates of Mansfield (Texas), outlined how his organization incorporated robotics into its operations.

Workshop Coverage // Becker's ASC Annual Meeting
The popularity of robotic surgery is growing and it's easy to understand why. These procedures support minimally invasive procedures, which can deliver better patient outcomes, better patient and surgeon experiences, and lower the total cost of surgical care. In addition, many patients seeking robotic surgery have commercial insurance, which is beneficial to a health system's bottom line. At Becker's 8th Annual CEO & CFO Roundtable in Chicago, Intuitive hosted a workshop to explore how and why healthcare organizations are embracing innovative robotic surgery technology. Allen Harrison, president and CEO of Methodist Healthcare System, described how his organization, San Antonio's largest health system, uses robotic surgery to help achieve its Quadruple Aim ambitions.
