As healthcare organizations look for ways to gain new efficiencies and reduce costs, they are examining surgical services with a critical eye. In many cases, the operating room (OR) was not included in enterprisewide reengineering efforts, thereby limiting the positive impact of those efforts. Healthcare organizations are recognizing that every point along the patient care continuum is interrelated. To truly maximize reengineering efforts, they need to integrate the entire process and information flow within the OR and across the enterprise.
随着医疗保健机构寻求提高新效率和降低成本的方法，他们正以批判性的眼光审视手术服务。在许多情况下，手术室并未被纳入全企业范围的重新设计工作中，从而限制了这些工作的积极影响。医疗保健机构逐渐认识到患者护理连续过程中的每个环节都是相互关联的。为了真正最大限度地提高重新设计工作的成效，他们需要整合手术室内部以及整个企业范围内的整个流程和信息流。
