Medaxion Unveils Anesthesia Manager, the First Platform to Manage Anesthesia Service Line Performance

New platform gives hospitals and anesthesia organizations real-time visibility to address the inefficiencies and surging costs that have ORs at the breaking point

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Medaxion, a leader in anesthesia-focused information systems, today announced the launch of Anesthesia Manager, the first platform purpose-built to transform anesthesia case data into daily operational decisions. The platform delivers national benchmarks, real-time performance insights, and prioritized actions —enabling hospitals and anesthesia organizations to better manage coverage, control costs, and improve system-wide outcomes.

"For too long, anesthesia has been managed in the dark," said Jeff McLaren, CEO at Medaxion. "Anesthesia Manager is the first platform that makes performance visible so leaders can act with confidence, protect revenue, and address the inefficiencies that push ORs to the financial breaking point. You can't fix what you can't see."

Key Features

• Staffing Optimization — Ongoing visualization of anesthesia staff utilization patterns by specific coverage windows, including current vs. optimal staff levels, visibility into utilization patterns, and annual cost of coverage by site.
• Financial Analysis — Ongoing tabulation of the interrelated impacts of anesthesia coverage, staffing costs, and projected revenue, including P&L by time slice/coverage window, staffing cost analysis, and rolling financial and subsidy projections.
• Progress Tracking — Measuring performance with daily progress reporting, including baseline vs. opportunity comparison, baseline vs. external cohort comparison, and identification of favorable/unfavorable trends.
• Facility Benchmarking — Comparing facilities using a unique and expanding nationwide anesthesia database that includes case data from a wide range of facility types and care models, enabling system-wide and peer comparisons, KPI and opportunity rankings by facility, and leveraging a database of 15M+ anesthesia cases.
• Opportunity Assessment — Decision support tools that assess the financial impact of identified opportunities, including specific opportunity topics and detail views, benefit vs. effort change management, and priority opportunity rankings.

Built on Unmatched Anesthesia Data

Powered by a robust dataset of 15 million cases, 900+ locations, and 500+ data pipelines, Anesthesia Manager delivers insights that drive transparency and financial alignment.  The platform provides a common language to connect OR performance stakeholders: anesthesia, management, revenue cycle, nursing, and pharmacy. The result is actionable intelligence for all facilities.

Anesthesia coverage is no longer just a staffing issue – it's a strategic imperative. Anesthesia Manager equips hospitals, health systems, and anesthesia organizations to contain costs, align resources and reduce anesthesia shortfall.

"Health systems that utilize all-in-one EMRs are realizing that even with dedicated anesthesia modules, downloaded anesthesia data is often incomplete, difficult to manipulate, and not readily accessible. Alternatively, anesthesia groups that rely on anesthesia billing systems for operating data continue to suffer from inadequate querying ability and untimely results buried in voluminous reports," said Robert Johnson, Senior Vice President of Anesthesia Operations. "Anesthesia Manager is the first commercially available anesthesia information application that provides complete, accessible, real-time data with the capability to visualize both obvious or obscure actionable operational relationships that can effortlessly guide an organization to cost-effective solutions."
