Hospitals

JSA's practice management approach helps hospitals improve the quality and efficiency of surgical assisting services. ORs are vital to the success of a hospital, and surgical assistants can play an essential role in improving surgical care. With all the responsibilities facing an OR Director, surgical assisting is rarely the top priority. However, hospitals cannot truly optimize services provided in the OR without devoting significant time and resources to surgical assisting services.

JSA is solely dedicated to surgical assisting. We bring a high level of expertise and a cohesive vision of surgical assisting that helps hospitals improve their OR. This approach also helps hospitals mitigate risk by decreasing sentinel events and increasing overall patient safety.

We offer a partnership model instead of an agency solution, which allows us to serve as an extension of the surgical team. By partnering, we ease the burden on the scheduler and allow the OR Director to focus energy on other vital aspects of the OR.

JSA's approach helps hospitals reduce the costs associated with surgical assistants. When a hospital relies on full-time employees to provide surgical assistants,�the hospital has difficultly maximize their reimbursement opportunity. JSA's solution helps hospitals maximize reimbursement, which offers significant cost savings.

Surgeons

JSA offers surgeons an unmatched level of quality and consistency. We understand the importance of the relationship between the surgeon and the surgical assistant, and we have created programs to enhance this partnership. Our goal is to make sure surgeons have access to their preferred surgical assistant whenever possible. JSA works closely with surgeons to understand their needs and preferences, and we train our surgical assistants to meet these needs in the most effective manner. Our program also allows surgeons to perform more surgeries. Our scheduling system minimizes downtime, so that surgeons are able to make the most of their time.

Surgical Assistants

JSA surgical assistants spend more time doing what they - helping patients in surgery. With JSA, surgical assistants can get the most of their skills, because JSA is dedicated to the professional and personal growth of our surgical assistants. We offer the tools and resources to help surgical assistants advance in their career.

JSA gives surgical assistants an unmatched level of stability. We offer exceptional benefits and the resources of an industry-leading staffing company. In addition, we strive to increase recognition of the role surgical assistants play in successful surgeries through lobbying efforts and increased awareness.

Patients

JSA employs the best surgical assistants in the industry, and we arm these surgical assistants with the tools to continuously improve their abilities. This approach leads to a higher level of service and improved patient outcomes. We want patients to be fully aware of the services provided by surgical assistants and to know they are receiving the best care from these professionals. Far too often, a patient does not even know a surgical assistant is involved in his or her surgery until they receive a bill for services. JSA increases transparency to make sure patients are aware of the services provided by a surgical assistant, which improves patient satisfaction. JSA's practice management solution also helps patients spend less time waiting for procedures to begin by improving on-time case starts and increasing overall OR productivity. Most importantly, we employ the best surgical assistants in the industry to drive better outcomes.
