Stanton Healthcare Group Associated Companies
OR Efficiencies
OR Efficiencies, LLC was founded by V. Gerard Ippolito, BA, MBA/MHSA (Jerry Ippolito) after nearly thirty years in healthcare administration with over fifteen years specializing in perioperative services consulting. Prior to Johnson & Johnson's divestment of its healthcare management consulting division, Mr. Ippolito had managed the J&&J consulting service lines of anesthesiology program development and surgical program business development since 1996; has focused his career on mediating and developing hospital-medical staff relations since 1978.
OR Efficiencies, LLC was established when Mr. Ippolito recognized that in order to be optimally positioned in the discipline of OR-consulting, a firm's services must be differentiated and provide greater value to clients; provide "end-to-end specialized business solutions" with a unique focus on surgery.
