PriorityQ is a web-based solution designed to assist healthcare providers in managing surgical backlogs and waitlists through proactive prioritization planning. Our software incorporates surgeon schedules, patient/procedure severity and resource availability to provide a forward-looking, load planning schedule. This insight helps administrators plan how to manage the surgical queue weeks in advance with the flexibility to adjust on a day-to-day basis.
