Health care is in an active state of transformation and reform. Currently, it is estimated that 70-80% of surgical patients enter the hospital on the day of surgery. Providing quality, cost-effective preoperative preparation of patients undergoing anesthesia and surgical procedures is a central issue in perioperative patient management. A successful Anesthesia Preoperative Evaluation Clinic can demonstrate significant clinical advantages, improve quality and value for our customers, and provide visible leadership in responding to rapidly changing healthcare demands.
