National Survey on Patient Throughput and Capacity Challenge
StatCom’s 2007 National Survey on Patient Throughput and Capacity Challenges was
designed to capture the thoughts and opinions held by U.S. healthcare executives
on issues facing their facilities regarding patient throughput, bed occupancy and
length of stay.
The survey of more than 200 executives, directors, nurses and physicians found that
nearly three-fifths (58 percent) of their facilities lacked the ability to track patients
continuously and over half (53 percent) rated the efficiency of their facilities’ bedturn
process as poor or fair.
The report shows healthcare facilities are still transitioning from old methods of patient throughput management to new technologically advanced patient flow and tracking systems. In fact, two-thirds (67 percent) of executives polled report phone calls and voice messages are still the most common way patient tracking information is made available to admitting staff, while 63 percent indicate that some patient flow information is available on computer terminals.
