How 150-Bed Hospitals Cut Discharge TAT from 6h to 2h
A field guide to ADT + discharge automation: checklists, e-summary, pharmacy/lab handshakes, and HIS sync.
Discharge is where hospitals lose beds and trust. At 150 beds, 6–8h TAT means 20–30 beds idle daily. The fix is not more staff — it's orchestrating the handoffs.
A HospitalOS layer syncs ADT via FHIR/HL7, drives a digital discharge checklist shared by nursing, pharmacy, lab, and TPA, auto-generates the e-summary from HIS data, and triggers WhatsApp updates to families. Pharmacy and lab get FHIR tasks, TPA gets packet validation, and the bed board flips to 'ready' instantly.
Bed allocation moves from phone to board: ward/ICU assignment in <5m with occupancy and ALOS visible. One hospital saw discharge 6.2h→2.1h and turnover +22% in 60 days.
Measure: discharge TAT, bed turnover, occupancy, and TPA follow-up days — not calls answered.
