Surgical Needs Assessment

A Surgical Needs Assessment is a careful evaluation used to determine the medical requirements of a population or individual for surgical care. It involves analyzing health data, disease patterns, and available resources to identify gaps in surgical services. The goal is to prioritize necessary surgeries, improve access, and ensure that patients receive appropriate surgical interventions. This assessment helps healthcare providers, governments, and organizations plan and allocate resources effectively to meet surgical needs and improve overall health outcomes.
