Overview
As robotic-assisted surgeries have grown in popularity across specialties, so too have health system investments in them. Hospitals and health systems are leveraging surgical robots to address capacity constraints, attract new physicians, and remain competitive with new, innovative technologies. However, the high costs, lackluster reimbursement rates, and lingering physician skepticism make deploying these programs a challenge.
Use our resource to learn how to build a successful robotic surgery program by maximizing robot utilization through data tracking, achieving standardization across a diverse care team, and communicating the benefits of robotic surgery where clinically appropriate.
