Sterilization capacity limits patient care choices
Sterile processing in the ASC environment present considerable challenges. Small department sizes, staffing constraints, and equipment downtime all contribute to capacity restraint that ultimately limits the number of patients that can be seen and the types of surgery available at the facility. An additional complication is the strain the OEM suppliers are facing as more surgical cases are trying to move to the ASC environment. That trend has created an number of inefficiencies in the supply chain and particularly for total joint surgery. Moreover, Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) suppliers are facing issues related to their equipment utilization, which leads to a lower degree of sales.
SPDx is the solution
This model benefits every stakeholder. Facilities can increase revenues and facilitate growth in the marketplace with new procedures. Patients can choose where they receive care in a safe, low-risk environment closer to home. Payers benefit from lower costs, and OEMs gain transparency into where their equipment and trays are.
