Allina Health Partners with Qventus to Improve OR Efficiency and Grow Surgical Program

Allina Health is partnering with Qventus, the leading provider of AI-powered software for care operations automation, to use its Perioperative Solution in order to automate operating room (OR) scheduling processes and maximize its surgical program.

The partnership is part of Allina Health’s commitment to upgrading its surgical program to increase efficiency and maximize existing resources while reducing stress and workload on staff. Allina Health, a not-for-profit healthcare system based in Minneapolis, Minn., owns or operates 12 hospital campuses and more than 90 clinics in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Qventus is an AI-based SaaS solution purpose-built for care operations automation. The Perioperative Solution integrates with EHRs and uses machine learning-based automation, behavioral science, and comprehensive data to drive new levels of efficiency across OR departments. It’s the only solution that automates end-to-end surgical program growth by:

• Increasing available OR time and surgical robot access
• Enabling surgical clinics to easily view and request OR time without logging into the EHR
• Automatically offering time to surgeons based on the health system’s strategic goals
• Providing insights on OR and surgeon performance compared to market benchmarks
