New resource available for postop management

With payment models continually shifting, many healthcare providers are still struggling to meet requirements imposed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The importance of teamwork to manage the entire episode of patient care and prevent readmissions can’t be overemphasized.

To help navigate some of these issues, OR Manager has published the first edition of Best Practices to Optimize Postoperative Recovery. This compilation of articles previously published in OR Manager includes insights into the new roles and responsibilities of OR leaders and their staffs as well as the impact of new technology on surgical patient care. New models such as perioperative surgical homes and enhanced recovery after surgery programs are explored, along with improvements in anesthesia and pain management.

The book is available at the conference bookstore and may also be ordered online: Visit www.ormanager.com and click on “store.”
