But at this point, the way these programs are expanding and the way that our volume has been increasing, it's not manageable to do that anymore.
So we're trying to leverage some of the tools within Epic to help us do that and do some of the patient tracking, the quality metric tracking, etc.,
And then we also have outside thought groups that we sort of participate in and go to as many webinars as we can to learn about these measures and also see what other best practices are out there in the country to see how we can make sure that we are meeting the goals, being as competitive as possible.
Sure.
So one of the things that we have laid the groundwork for is looking at how do we transition and stay on top of the fact that a lot of orthopedics is going towards the outpatient arena.
We have several ambulatory surgical centers that we partner with folks on in our system.
And so we are trying to maintain a good balance between what goes there and what is should be done there versus what stays in the traditional hospital setting.
Um, we just actually got some data from advisory board and it's about an average of 15% growth in that outpatient arena for orthopedics and joint replacement is actually as high as 32%.
So yeah, it's, I was, I was actually a little shocked when I saw those numbers.
Cause we assumed we had heard, you know, over the last few years, it was like, oh, five or 10% is going to go outpatient.
We're looking at much higher numbers than that.
And so a lot of what we've been doing is setting the groundwork for looking at a more regional strategy.
And so we've been partnering with our hospital presidents in various regions to say, what is our current book of business at each of these locations?
How do we potentially shift things over the next one to three years to be more efficient to cohort like types of services in one place?
take advantage of the fact that maybe we have ORs where we've got enough and we can almost set up like a mini ASC within the hospital proper.
If we can't build a new ASC or do that capital investment, what can we do with the resources that we have?
How can we become really efficient at what we do?
And so I think that's one of the things we've been setting the groundwork for and we're looking forward to expanding upon next year.
The other really interesting thing, and it may seem like a very small thing when people are listening to this, but I'm really excited about it, is we were able to standardize our education for all of our joint replacement practices and also for all of our faculty, our nurses, our care coordinators, anyone who touches the joint replacement process.
And that may sound like something very, very small, but when you look across a health system
