What We Do
Specialized Consulting Services
Every service we offer is purpose-built for cardiovascular perfusion — the most clinically complex and financially misunderstood service line in most hospital systems.
Cost Analysis
Uncover what's costing you most
Our comprehensive cost audits go beyond the surface. We analyze every line item in your cardiovascular perfusion service — from disposable supplies to labor allocation — to identify inefficiencies that general hospital administrators often miss.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- Detailed cost-per-case benchmarking
- Identification of high-spend outliers
- Comparison against national perfusion service standards
- Prioritized savings roadmap with ROI projections
Contract Negotiation
Ensure every contract works for you
Perfusion contracts are complex and vendor-favorable by default. We provide independent, data-driven analysis to level the playing field — reviewing terms, benchmarking pricing, and negotiating on your institution's behalf.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- Full contract term and pricing review
- Market benchmarking for perfusion services
- Identification of unfavorable clauses
- Negotiation support and strategy
Clinical Protocols
Standardize for safety and efficiency
We develop institution-specific clinical protocols tailored to your case mix, equipment, and staff capabilities. Standardization reduces variability, improves patient outcomes, and creates measurable operational efficiencies.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- Custom protocol development
- Staff training and competency programs
- Case-specific guidelines for complex procedures
- Protocol documentation for accreditation support
Equipment Management
Maximize capital asset value
Heart-lung machines, oxygenators, and perfusion circuit components represent significant capital investment. We help hospitals develop lifecycle strategies that extend equipment utility, time replacements optimally, and reduce unplanned maintenance costs.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- Equipment lifecycle assessment
- Capital replacement planning
- Maintenance contract optimization
- Vendor comparison and procurement guidance
Staffing Efficiency
Right staff, right cases, right cost
Staffing is the largest variable cost in perfusion. We analyze FTE allocation against case volume, call burden, and case complexity to identify whether staffing models are appropriately sized and structured.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- FTE-to-case volume benchmarking
- Call and coverage structure analysis
- Contract vs. employed staff cost comparison
- Recommendations to reduce overtime and agency spend
Compliance & Safety
Stay ahead of regulatory requirements
Regulatory standards for cardiovascular perfusion continue to evolve. We validate your protocols and practices against current Joint Commission standards, state regulations, and clinical evidence to ensure your program is protected.
Deliverables & Outcomes
- Protocol audit against regulatory standards
- Joint Commission readiness review
- Documentation gap analysis
- Corrective action planning and support
