36 LeanTaaS Testimonials

“It will allow for very immediate – almost ‘live’ – access to usage data related to my block time in the OR and will let me see if I am effective in using the allotted time.”

"Our utilization curve shows we were level loading after [implementing iQueue]. We were able to unlock the capacity to help deal with unexpected delays and add-ons. Our nursing team felt there was the ability to rest and plan out their days and take a lunch break. It was a huge satisfier for employees and patients."

“Within less than two months, we saw remarkable improvements that surpassed our expectations. This rapid success is just the beginning – we have achieved even greater results as we’ve built on these early wins."

"Our average daily census is now in the mid 800s and we have not gone on diversion or refused transfers. Every surgery, every procedure, admission and direct admit is accommodated. We do not back up the OR, or the Cath lab. This is enabled by the tools we have from LeanTaaS because we can see where the potential roadblocks are in advance and act.”

“Within one year of implementing iQueue, we were able to increase overall block utilization by 20% percent and primetime utilization by 4.8% and that’s with the 7% reduction in available rooms that indicates that we’re using our space a lot more efficiently.”

"The real-time transparency into daily staffing needs and resources that LeanTaaS provides has enabled us to become more nimble. We now send staff to where patients are and move patients less to ensure the best care experience for each patient.”

"I don’t think I’ve done an overbook so far. This has had a very positive impact on our infusion centers, our staff, and our patients."

“It’s a very impressive amount of growth, and amount of volume we’ve added at this one infusion center, thanks to having the iQueue system in place.”

"We took two years of historical data and pumped that into the analytic engine as well as operating constraints, how many infusion chairs are available, the hours when the chairs are open and the staff that’s available and that’s translated into mathematical equations into iQueue and out comes as a production schedule."

"We’ve seen great success using the iQueue product to enable our operations and process improvement teams to drive visibility and action across the health system."

“The OR schedulers were needing to take time off due to lack of work. The case numbers did not decrease, but our efficiencies became so streamlined with the system that the cases were being booked in a more timely way.”

"Since launching i-Queue in June 2020, we have been able to add additional appointment slots equaling increased revenue. Our waiting rooms have only a sprinkling of patients compared to pre-iQueue. We have seen a decrease in drug and infusion wait times. Nurses are now able to care for more patients in the same amount of time without feeling slammed during the historical “rush hour.” They are even able to step away for a midday lunch break which was hard to do prior to iQueue. The icing on the cake are the data reports that are available on a daily basis or on-demand."

"Before the pandemic, we knew we had to solve our problem of surgical case backlog. Then COVID-19 hit and suddenly we had to postpone 8,000 surgical cases. We took this opportunity to invest in technology, partnering with LeanTaaS to help us improve our OR capacity and provide surgeons with a tool that made OR time simple to view, access, and share. [iQueue] proved vital in navigating the aftermath of the return of surgical cases."

“Exchange has made the surgeons happy, and we’re getting patients in faster, so it has increased surgeon satisfaction, increased patient satisfaction, and has made the whole scheduling process outside of normal block time smoother. It has fixed so many problems and streamlined our systems so much.”

"Our nurses love using the huddle report every morning because it gives us a really good indication for if we can take patients back early who arrive early, and for knowing where the day’s best opportunities are for handling add-ons. Our days run much smoother because we are really utilizing our time better."
