Specialised Solutions for Hospital Capacity Challenges

AI-powered capacity intelligence supported by dedicated expertise in predictive capacity management.

Bed Management Optimisation

Anticipate capacity needs before patient diversion. Predict discharge patterns and admission surges to prevent capacity shortages through proactive planning.

  • ✓ Predict discharge patterns and admission surges
  • ✓ Optimise bed allocation across services
  • ✓ Prevent capacity shortages through proactive planning
  • ✓ Reduce patient wait times and improve throughput

Business Impact: Reduced ED boarding, improved patient throughput

Ask MyIQ Health

"Show me predicted bed occupancy for Medical Ward 3 over the next 72 hours, factoring in the 4 delayed discharges."
Claude analyses real-time PMS data combined with forecast models to surface capacity risks before they impact operations.

Ask MyIQ Health

"What does the next 24 hours look like for ED presentations? Are we staffed adequately for the predicted demand?"
The AI anticipates volume surges and cross-references with rostering data to flag staffing gaps before they impact care.

Emergency Department Flow

Predict and prevent ED bottlenecks. Anticipate patient volume surges before they occur and optimise staffing based on predicted demand patterns.

  • ✓ Anticipate patient volume surges before they occur
  • ✓ Optimise staffing based on predicted demand patterns
  • ✓ Prevent boarding through proactive capacity management
  • ✓ Improve patient experience through reduced wait times

Business Impact: Lower wait times, better staff allocation

Staffing Optimisation

Predict workforce needs before shortages impact care. Account for leave patterns, sick leave, and seasonal variations to reduce agency staffing costs.

  • ✓ Anticipate staffing requirements in advance
  • ✓ Account for leave patterns, sick leave, and seasonal variations
  • ✓ Optimise shift patterns based on predicted patient needs
  • ✓ Reduce agency staffing costs through proactive planning

Business Impact: Reduced agency costs, lower overtime spend

Ask MyIQ Health

"Based on next week's forecast, which wards will need additional RN coverage? Factor in the 3 annual leave bookings."
Claude combines demand forecasts with rostering data to recommend staffing adjustments a week ahead, not the night before.

Ask MyIQ Health

"Can we safely schedule 4 additional orthopaedic electives next Thursday without breaching 90% surgical ward occupancy?"
The platform models the impact on capacity before scheduling decisions are made, preventing downstream bottlenecks.

Elective Planning

Predict capacity for scheduled procedures. Balance elective and acute demand to improve theatre utilisation and throughput.

  • ✓ Predict capacity for scheduled procedures
  • ✓ Balance elective and acute demand
  • ✓ Model impact before scheduling decisions
  • ✓ Improve theatre utilisation and throughput

Business Impact: Improved theatre utilisation and throughput

Scenario Planning

Model future capacity under different assumptions. Infrastructure and workforce planning support for better capital and workforce planning decisions.

  • ✓ Model future capacity under different assumptions
  • ✓ Infrastructure and workforce planning support
  • ✓ Conversational scenario building via Claude
  • ✓ Compare outcomes before committing resources

Business Impact: Better capital and workforce planning decisions

Ask MyIQ Health

"Model the impact of closing 8 beds in Ward 4 for refurbishment over the winter peak. What does capacity look like?"
Planners set assumptions conversationally and Claude runs the scenario against forecast models, surfacing risks immediately.
