How Baptist Memorial Doubled Surgical Case On-Time Starts

At Baptist Memorial Hospital-Memphis, manually documented EHR timestamps painted a different picture of FCOTS than what surgeon feedback suggested. Without trustworthy data, the team lacked a starting point for improvement and couldn't reconcile metrics and what physicians actually experienced.

Within six months of deploying Apella's computer vision platform in its ORs, Baptist Memorial improved performance across the full surgical schedule: more on-time case starts, fewer late days, and shorter overruns.
