Webinar to explore how hospital used AI to reduce ED boarding
An AONL webinar on Oct. 15 from 12:00-1:00 p.m. CT will discuss how Baptist Health in Little Rock, Ark., used artificial intelligence to reduce emergency department boarding. Greg Brown, BS, associate system vice president of patient command center/healthline, will explain how Baptist Health used AI-driven predictive insights and standardized workflows to address ED boarding, transfer friction and delayed discharges. Baptist Health increased admissions by 6% and reduced geometric mean length of stay variance by 34%, discharge-processing time by 40%, emergency department boarding by 35% and diversion by 74%, recovering more than $12 million. Participants will learn practical strategies to align their teams, improve throughput and build a more efficient capacity management approach. The webinar is open to members and non-members. Participants should register in advance.
