Unprecedented visibility into radiology operations Case study: Helsinki University Hospital, Helsinki, Finland

Tornisairaala hospital

How can Value Partnerships impact healthcare delivery? Gain insights into their transformative effects through this case study on Helsinki University Hospital. Learn about various challenges encountered by the healthcare provider in Finland and find out how a partnership with Siemens Healthineers helped them overcome these hurdles. 

Rising demand for CT scans in Finland and a national shortage of radiographers are the main challenges for Helsinki University Hospital (HUS). Improving the efficiency of the entire CT workflow was identified as a key goal. With a new facility currently under construction, HUS is interested in both enhancing its current operations and establishing optimized processes for the future site. 

Therefore, HUS partnered with Siemens Healthineers to re-imagine their radiology operations in response to these new pressures. The partners identified six action fields where targeted improvements could enhance departmental efficiency and performance. The team proposed targeted changes in these action fields that can potentially increase annual CT throughput by 30% while reducing personnel costs by 40%.

Main results

  • Enabled potential to reduce staff costs by 40% while increasing CT throughput by almost 30%.1
  • Improved patient experience through higher comfort-level and efficiency.1
  • Updated nursing job responsibilities improved recruitment, retention of talent and faster onboarding.1
