Inside the OR transformations working at WakeMed, Cone Health + Loma Linda


This webinar is on-demand and can be viewed at your convenience. 

Picture the OR board on a typical Monday — blocks held but underused, cases running late, add-ons pushing the schedule past prime time. Many hospitals recognize the pattern. Few have made durable changes to break it.

The physician executives in this panel have. And they get specific about how.
 
Drawing on their experience at WakeMed, Cone Health and Loma Linda University Health, they walk through the governance, technology and change management decisions that moved perioperative performance forward.

Inside the discussion:
 
  • How to optimize surgical operations through better resource allocation
  • Governance models enabling physician-led change and measurable OR performance improvement
  • Practical strategies for reducing delays, improving throughput and increasing block utilization
  • What effective change management looks like across complex health systems
