Large Charitable Hospital
- We have been working continuously with this large charitable hospital based in Kerala since 2011 when the hospital was overloaded with patient complaints
- A robust booking system and many other initiatives to improve patient flow were introduced for Out Patients (OP), resulting in the reduction of OP complaints by over 90% and reduction in the average registration/consulting/pharmacy cycle time for patients from 5 hours to 1.5 hours
- These initiatives resulted in the daily OP increasing from 600 patients per day to over 2000 patients per day
- The huge increase in OP led to a significant increase in admissions resulting in the hospital running at full bed capacity throughout the year
- Many initiatives like Planned Date of Discharge (PDD), synchronization of all departments to enable Quick Discharge etc, resulted in 60% of patients being discharged before 2pm compared to 20% previously
- Today the hospital has expanded using its unique business model and runs a network of 4 hospitals and 2 clinics in the Indian State of Kerala
- The total hospital network handles around 80,000 Out-Patients (OP) and more than 2400 In-Patient (IP) admissions every month
