When it comes to advancing ophthalmic care, innovation drives better efficiency, improved outcomes, and superior patient experiences. At the forefront of this progress is office-based surgery (OBS), a cutting-edge approach that redefines traditional surgical settings.
Scheduling conflicts and inability to get block time are common frustrations for surgeons. OBS allows providers to control their schedules, streamline workflows, and avoid hospital delays. This ultimately creates better time management for both patients and surgeons.
The flexibility of OBS ensures that ophthalmologists can tend to both clinical and surgical patients seamlessly under one roof. Backlogs are reduced, and practices can handle growing patient volumes without the logistical constraints of external facilities.
OBS eliminates many of the high-overhead costs associated with traditional surgical settings. For practices, this translates to better revenue margins. Patients also benefit as they receive straightforward, all-in-one billing. If the surgeon chooses oral sedation for the patient, the cost of an anesthesia provider is eliminated.
Hospitals and ASCs often face delays in adopting new surgical technologies due to bureaucratic protocols. OBS environments empower surgeons to integrate the latest innovations swiftly, enhancing patient care with tools like intraoperative OCT, excimer lasers, or phacoemulsification machines without the red tape.
At the helm of the shift to OBS, iOR Partners offers everything ophthalmologists need to build and operate their own office-based surgical suites. Turnkey solutions cover every stage of the setup and post-launch support, including:
With iOR Partners, your OBS can be fully operational within six months, turning vision into reality faster than you thought possible.
