Large Metropolitan Hospital
Challenge
The hospital needed to improve the patient experience and increase the number of daily appointments. By reducing cycle times, the hospital could serve more patients, and in turn, generate more revenue, which could further increase the number of patients served.
Solution
With iGrafx, the organization was able to identify that, due to lengthy wait times, patients were often leaving before being treated. By reducing cycle times, more patients were seen leading to a substantial growth in revenue. Approximately $2 million of new revenue was generated the first year by identifying and reducing lengthy wait times. This helped to increase the number of patients that could be seen. The rate of patients leaving the center before being treated dropped by 50 percent, representing a major increase in customer satisfaction.
