Capacity Utilization Tracker

Maximize throughput without compromising care

Hospital capacity is finite and expensive.

OR utilization below target: Prime-time utilization falls below 75% threshold
Block time underuse: Surgeon or service line uses less than 80% of allocated block

Built for operations teams
who demand accuracy

Hospital capacity is finite and expensive. Operating Rooms (ORs), inpatient beds, and specialized equipment represent significant fixed costs that generate zero revenue when idle.

From alert to action in minutes

The objective of this agent is to increase asset utilization and throughput.

Step 1

The Trigger

You define when the agent should activate. When conditions are met, it starts working automatically.

  • OR utilization below target: Prime-time utilization falls below 75% threshold
  • Block time underuse: Surgeon or service line uses less than 80% of allocated block
  • Turnover delay alert: Room turnover exceeds 30-minute benchmark
Step 2

360° View

The agent opens a tailored dashboard consolidating data from all your systems.

  • Utilization summary cards showing OR, bed, and equipment utilization vs. targets
  • Prime-time utilization by OR with drill-down to service line and surgeon
  • Block time allocation vs. actual use by surgeon and service line
Step 3

Automated Analysis

The agent follows a structured analysis flow, combining checks with exploratory reasoning.

  • Utilization gap identification: Calculates variance between actual and target utilization by resource, time period, and service line.
  • Pattern recognition: Identifies recurring underutilization by day of week, time of day, and case type, flagging systematic issues.
  • Block time analysis: Reviews allocated vs. used block time, identifying surgeons and service lines consistently releasing or underusing time.
Step 4

Actionable Output

After analysis, the agent creates a human-friendly report with everything your team needs.

  • Executive summary: Overall utilization performance vs. targets with trend direction
  • Top underutilization areas: Ranked list of ORs, time periods, and service lines with largest gaps
  • Pattern insights: Day-of-week and time-of-day patterns requiring scheduling adjustments
Step 5

Delivery

Reports are sent automatically via email or accessed directly in Veezoo.

Key benefits for operations teams

Concrete, measurable value for your team from day one

Fast Action

Faster issue detection

Before: monthly manual report compilation. Now: automated alerts when utilization drops below threshold.

More Revenue

Revenue recovery

Identify 5-10% of prime-time capacity currently going unused, translating to additional procedures and revenue.

Root Cause

Root cause visibility

Pinpoint whether underutilization stems from scheduling, turnover, late starts, or downstream bottlenecks.

Up and runningin production in weeks

To deploy this Agent, you connect Veezoo to your existing Data Warehouse, typically containing data from:

Surgical Scheduling System: Case bookings, block allocations, actual start/stop times
Perioperative Information System: OR utilization, turnover times, delay reasons
Bed Management System: Occupancy rates, admission/discharge/transfer data, PACU holds
EHR/ADT Feed: Patient flow data, pre-op readiness indicators
