OR EFFICIENCIES, LLC
NAPLES, FLORIDA

About OR Efficiencies. . . OR Efficiencies, LLC was founded by V. Gerard Ippolito, BA, MBA/MHSA (Jerry Ippolito) after nearly thirty years in healthcare administration with over fifteen years specializing in perioperative services consulting. Prior to Johnson & Johnson’s divestment of its healthcare management consulting division, Mr. Ippolito had managed the J&J consulting service lines of anesthesiology program development and surgical program business development since 1996; has focused his career on mediating and developing hospital-medical staff relations since 1978. OR Efficiencies, LLC was established when the firm’s founder recognized that in order to be optimally positioned in the discipline of OR-consulting, a firm’s services must be differentiated and provide greater value to clients; provide “end-to-end specialized business solutions” with a unique focus on surgery. OR Efficiencies’ vision is founded on universally shared thoughts of seasoned directors of surgical services, surgeons, anesthesiologists and hospital administrators: OR Efficiencies was founded on principles of bringing unique and specialized services of value to clients. The firm’s founder has determined that most boutique firms, specializing in perioperative services, can identify issues impacting a hospital’s surgical program marketability but lack resources to assist with corrective action unless the “fix” rests within the perioperative services discipline and inventory of skills. Large firms (e.g. big six accounting firms and pharmaceutical companies) have breadth of service offerings and skills but lack specialized focus in the core business of surgery. Typically these large firms also lack focused, and personalized customer service as too often the stockholder, not the hospital (or physician) client, is the end-customer. Providing “Customized & Comprehensive, End-To-End Business Process Solutions” OR Efficiencies brings true value and differentiation to clients by providing “customized and comprehensive, end-to-end business process solutions”. This end-to-end approach ultimately translates into decreased risk for clients as clients develop and maintain a relationship with one organization (OR Efficiencies, LLC) that screens and hand-picks experts in varied disciplines required to assist in issue resolution and change management. A consortium of multi-disciplinary experts, each with at least a decade of experience in their field, is prepared and available to support each engagement and client’s unique challenges. Comprehensive perioperative services program analysis, redesign, implementation and business planning Healthcare market share development and business planning We lost a number of doctors and I feared losing my CRNAs because of our issues. Jerry personally assisted me to bring stability to the anesthesiology program and his team improved OR efficiencies and general operations so that now we're able to recruit and retain highly skilled anesthesia staff. The consulting team assisted our surgeons to realize that they must be part of developing solutions, not simply to expect administration to provide them a perfect world. Our anesthesiology program was greatly in deficit due to the staffing costs associated with a terribly inefficient OR. I was losing faculty and could not recruit to our program due to the imbalance of work-load and compensation package. Jerry brought facts and education. He assisted in mediating our relationships and educated us on how to move forward. The assistance Jerry provided me and my program assisted me not only to improve our present situation and be successful in my position but also to move on in my own career.

OR Efficiencies Case Studies After agreeing to give the hospital a chance to improve OR efficiencies and participating in a surgical program process redesign project, surgeons agreed that a hospital's OR can run as efficiently as an ASC and chose not to build their own.
