What 18 minutes a shift is worth to a 15,000-person health system
Dana is a CNA on 3 West. She is good at her job. And every shift, she loses about 18 minutes to things that have nothing to do with patients.
She cannot find the call-off policy. She is not sure which form covers a shift swap. She has a login she has to reset, again. Each one takes a few minutes. Together they take 18.
With RedeApp, the policy is one question away: she asks Shelbe, and the answer comes back in seconds. Her tools open from one tap in the App Hub. The 18 minutes go back to the floor.
The math
One person, 18 minutes, one shift. Small. Now scale it. This is a made-up network, sized like a large health system, so you can swap in your own numbers.
15,000 frontline employees. 18 minutes saved per shift. 200 shifts a year each.
That is 900,000 hours a year. At 2,080 hours per full-time job, it is about 433 full-time people's worth of time. At $35.13 an hour, a nurse aide's loaded rate in this example, it comes to $31.6 million a year.
This is capacity, not cash in the bank. The hours show up as less overtime, fewer open shifts and more time at the bedside. But it is a real number, and you can put it in front of a CFO.
