Outpatient Surgery: The Throughput Challenge

In an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC), "Surgical Velocity" is dictated not by the OR, but by the recovery room. When a patient's discharge is delayed due to transport logistics, it creates a downstream logjam that stalls the entire surgical schedule. The ability to accurately predict discharge windows and synchronize curbside transport is the "missing link" in facility efficiency.

The Eightway Solution

OCTA by Eightway is a specialized management and transport platform designed to eliminate discharge bottlenecks. By utilizing predictive analytics—factoring in procedure type, anesthesia protocols, and real-time recovery milestones—OCTA pre-schedules and coordinates transport vehicles with precision.

This results in reduced "bay time," minimized administrative burden on nursing staff, and a measurable increase in daily case volume.
