Staffing productivity for hospitals & clinics
Same-day flags,
not month-end overspend.
We build a defensible productivity target for each of your units — from how the unit actually runs, including acuity and skill mix, not a peer benchmark — then give you the tool that keeps it true. Actual against target, per unit, per patient day, every day.
Built with you, not shipped to you.
Built around WHPPD — the number your CFO already speaks.
No PHI — census counts and staffing data only, and no integration required.
Targets built with your unit leaders, not handed to them.
94% staffing productivity · 95% over 7d
A unit scorecard, exactly as it appears in the tool.
How it works
Actual worked hours and census go in directly from the unit — broken out by core staff, overtime, and travelers. No payroll integration, no HR feed, no EHR access. A few minutes per shift, and the charge nurse sees her own unit's position in real time instead of at month-end close. That's why you're live in weeks, not quarters.
LeanCensus computes worked hours per patient day for every unit, every day, and holds it against the hours that day's census earned.
May 17 ran 1.25 hours per patient day past what the census earned — 89% productivity. That's not a surprise buried in a month-end report; it's a flag you see today.
Traveler and overtime premiums stop leaking. Unit by unit, week by week, it adds up fast.
Product
LeanCensus is built around a single discipline: hold worked hours per patient day against budget, and act on the gap while it's still cheap to close.
Worked hours per patient day, computed daily for every unit — not a blended house-wide average that hides the problem.
Over or under, by how much, and what it costs — surfaced the day it happens, not at month-end close.
Every hour is tagged core, overtime, or traveler — so you always know whether you're paying 1×, 1.5×, or 2.5× for the same care.
Daily unit scorecards and weekly rollups for your leadership huddle — ready before you ask for them.
Understaffing gets flagged just as loudly as overstaffing. The goal is the budgeted target — never a race to the bottom.
