ABOUT
RTDC brings together experts in the industry to deliver a best-in-class solution
At RTDC Advisors, we understand the challenge of throughput. Our experts have spent over 15 years developing and iterating on a solution for throughput in collaboration with the Institute of Healthcare Improvement (IHI). Drawing upon principles from Queueing theory and compression wave theory, our team developed the real time demand capacity management process that forms the foundation for managing patient throughput
Our experienced team can deploy the process within a week regardless of your hospital size. Our proprietary model is simple to implement and does not impact physician workflow.
