When a regional medical center moved into a state-of-the-art $173 million facility, an opportunity to improve anesthesia operations while operating more efficiently from a cost standpoint. The Market CEO and hospital leaders established a partnership with CCI Anesthesia, tasking the team to develop a new model that would add three cardiac anesthesiologists simultaneously costs within the department. A patient-centric standardized care the hospital’s existing anesthesia management practices and protocols and identified new systems to streamline productivity and improve staffing and scheduling standards. By implementing this new model, the regional medical center has more than $1.5 million in anesthesia, despite adding three new providers and retaining its existing team of CRNA’s.

Weeks for Full OR Coverage

Anesthesia Providers on Deck Daily

When a 131-bed hospital with approximately 7,000 surgical cases annually has only two to three anesthesia providers showing up to work each day, problems ensue. This was the case for an Indiana hospital whose anesthesia department needed rescuing. When their hospital administrator called CCI and asked how soon we could start, we had their ORs covered within two weeks. With six anesthesia providers on deck daily, their efficiency and patient and surgeon satisfaction quickly increased.

Anesthesia Provider Retention

New Chief Positions Hired

Anesthesia provider recruitment and retention are challenges posed by the current market that many anesthesia groups are not equipped to meet. This was the case for a long-tenured anesthesia group at a 257-bed Level III trauma center in Indiana with approximately 27,000 surgical cases annually. When the hospital administrator called us, anesthesia provider morale was at an all-time low, and resignations were being received regularly. Before the problem worsened, CCI was able to retain more than 85% of the anesthesia providers and hire a new chief anesthesiologist and two new chief CRNAs. This heightened morale among all anesthesia providers and resulted in improved relations with the surgical staff.

Brian Felici, Former Chief Executive Officer | Wetzel County Hospital, New Martinsville, WV

“Like most practitioners, I chose anesthesiology for the rewarding, intensive, patient interactions. However, in order to operate a practice, anesthesiologists often also have a large administrative burden. Quality management and billing, while essential, aren’t why we became physicians. Being a part of CCI Anesthesia allows us to keep our focus on doing great anesthesia. We do the work on the ground, knowing CCI is behind us taking care of everything else.”
