Elective Surgery Cancellation in A Hospital Setting: A Review

Encouragement of cost-effectiveness in patient care is necessary due to the rising cost of healthcare and the depletion of financial resources.Case cancellations on the day of surgery results in inefficient use of operating rooms, waste of precious staff, and a reduction in resources available to patients and hospitals.Financial troubles and psychological stress are possible for patients.Hospitals could miss out on chances to do surgery, waste disposable equipment that was opened for cases that were never handled, and spend money on paying wages and benefits to employees who aren't working.In order to prevent needless case cancellations, the medical community must promote cost-effectiveness in all facets of patient care without compromising the standard of care that a doctor provides.
