Maximising Capacity During Year‑End Budget Availability Background In early March, a UK Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) sought to utilise remaining financial‑year budget to increase diagnostic activity. The CDC requested rapid, high‑volume Echocardiography support from Sanus Cor, with a clear objective: complete as many Transthoracic Echocardiograms (TTE) as possible within the month of March to reduce waiting times and improve patient access. Sanus Cor mobilised immediately, deploying a fully managed, high‑capacity insourcing solution. Mobilisation & Deployment Sanus Cor assembled a dedicated team of four Cardiac Physiologists, including two staff members already familiar with the CDC’s patient database and reporting systems, ensuring a smooth and efficient start. Key mobilisation features included:

• Rapid coordination with CDC operational leads
• Full compliance with local guidelines, policies, and governance
• Seven‑day service coverage (7/7)
• Extended clinic hours to maximise throughput
• Continuous communication between Sanus Cor’s Clinical Lead and CDC management
• Flexible scheduling to match the CDC’s room availability, allowing the team to adjust clinic times and staffing dynamically throughout the month

This adaptability ensured optimal use of available space and resources, enabling the CDC to expand activity without operational disruption. Service Delivery Throughout March, Sanus Cor delivered:

• 39 clinics
• 530 echocardiograms completed
• Full adherence to local policies and reporting standards
• Reliable staffing with no short‑notice cancellations
• Seamless integration with existing patient pathways

The team’s familiarity with local systems and ability to adjust to room availability ensured efficient reporting, smooth patient flow, and consistent service delivery. Impact & Outcomes Significant Increase in Diagnostic Capacity Sanus Cor’s intensive month‑long support generated 530 additional TTE slots, directly improving patient access. Major Reduction in Long Waiters The CDC achieved a substantial improvement in waiting list performance:

• Patients waiting over 6 weeks reduced from 19.9% to 10.1%
• Achieved within a single month of enhanced activity

Operational Flexibility & Continuity Seven‑day coverage and dynamic scheduling ensured uninterrupted service delivery and maximised utilisation of year‑end budget and clinical space. Summary Table

Conclusion This high‑intensity insourcing initiative demonstrates Sanus Cor’s ability to rapidly mobilise, scale capacity, and deliver measurable improvements within tight timeframes. By providing extended clinics, experienced staff, seven‑day coverage, and flexible scheduling aligned with room availability, Sanus Cor enabled the CDC to make effective use of year‑end budget while achieving a meaningful reduction in waiting times.
