Optimization of Hospitals
ORSOFT for Healthcare is a software that allows you to
- carry out simultaneous surgery, bed planning, and medical facility planning
- automatically generate key data of clinical pathways (treatment patterns) from past cases
- perform simulations of hospital capacity in relation to patient composition, hospital layout, design of shift regimes, etc.
The term hospital optimization is to be seen in this context. The optimization is done in terms of multi-resource planning. It does not consider the utilization of individual service points, but rather the patient path.
ORSOFT for Healthcare: Treatment Patterns
The software serves the patient manager in daily operation.
The patient manager becomes the central figure: he optimizes clinic operations by organizing the interaction of service providers for the individual patient. Efficiency and quality increase, costs decrease, hectic rush is avoided and waiting times for patients are reduced.
Tool
ORSOFT for Healthcare is a supplement to SAP for Healthcare and Cerner i.s.h.med to bring supply (resources, material, people, …) and demand (OR, beds, CT scan, …) simultaneously in line with each other or to indicate conflicts directly at their source. Simple interfaces facilitate the operation of the SAP system.

Technology
ORSOFT for Healthcare is the embodiment of a long proven “Advanced Planning and Scheduling” system for the healthcare industry. ORSOFT GmbH was founded in 1990 from university roots and has many successful references in the industry.
ORSOFT for Healthcare complements SAP for Healthcare and connected clinical systems. This is made possible for the patient manager and the service providers in the hospital:
Creating transparency
It is already apparent at the time of admission whether there is a bottleneck in the nursing ward. All those involved have the information at an early stage and can take appropriate measures.
Simulations are made possible
70% of operations are elective. The patient manager or surgery manager can therefore select and change the combination of treatments for the next few days in such a way that no bottleneck resources (CT scan, intensive care, blood, surgeons, …) are infringed and the patient’s length of stay is minimized.
Cooperation is encouraged
Since the system immediately shows the consequences and effects of decisions on other departments, the best compromise can be found early on.
Work becomes easier
Sophisticated and proven mathematical methods (optimizers and heuristics) support the employee in the accomplishment of complex planning tasks, for example in rehabilitation therapy planning.
The core of the planning is the patient path, which is created from a template. A template describes the standard procedure related to a clinical picture. For the beginning, only a few pieces of information are sufficient (duration of bed occupancy and duration of surgery).
