Originally streamed live from the EBPOM USA 2019 conference in
Dallas this piece looks into the realities of enhanced recovery.
Patient satisfaction and outcomes rise to the top of the priority
list as an institution invests in the idea, how long does it take
for a clear financial return on the investments required to get it
off the ground? How do we get a team motivated to work towards
these ideas? Are there any disadvantages to enhanced recovery? How
do patients react to it?
Also, how does blockchain technology (the innovation behind
cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin) interlock into more practical
transfers of patient data? What other innovations are on the
horizon?
Presented by Desiree Chappell with Monty

Medicine at Case Western Reserve University.
