UnityCare Hospitals, a network of community hospitals, faced challenges in managing patient capacity during pandemic situations. Overcrowding and resource strain negatively impacted patient outcomes. Seeking to optimize capacity planning, UnityCare partnered with Epistemix to utilize the Epidemic X platform.

Epistemix assisted UnityCare in creating detailed simulations of their hospital network, including bed capacities, ICU units, and staffing levels. By simulating various pandemic scenarios and behavioral responses, they predicted patient influx and resource utilization under different conditions.

Using the insights gained, UnityCare developed strategies to redistribute patients, adjust elective procedure schedules, and reallocate staff to critical areas. They also identified opportunities to expand telemedicine services and coordinate with regional facilities to manage overflow situations.

These strategic interventions, informed by Epidemic X simulations, led to a 30% improvement in patient outcomes. UnityCare reduced wait times, prevented resource shortages, and provided timely care to patients in need. Staff efficiency improved, and overall patient satisfaction increased.

Epidemic X empowered UnityCare Hospitals to transform their capacity planning and enhance patient care significantly. By anticipating challenges and implementing data-driven strategies, UnityCare strengthened their ability to serve their communities effectively during pandemics and beyond.
