For value analysis
Model it on your own numbers
Your beds, your census, your wage, your planning assumptions.
This separate labor-planning model is not the SORT Score tubing-cost calculator. Sample values are illustrative, not measured Line-Sort results. Review each assumption with your committee before using the estimate.
Your facility
Start with what your committee already has on hand.
The whole hospital, not just the units you would start with.
Occupied intensive care beds on a typical day.
Base wage. Benefits add 46% on top, per BLS hospital compensation data.
Enter only the organization time your facility assumes could be saved, not total time spent managing lines. Do not count required tracing or verification as eliminated.
Line-Sort is quoted against your contracts and GPO agreements, so this site does not assume a price. Enter your quote and the return figures below fill in.
Illustrative result
Modeled nursing hours available per year
About 267 twelve-hour shifts, across roughly 26 nurses on duty at any time.
Volume to budget
Return
Enter your quoted case price to see annual product cost, net first-year value, return, and payback. Pricing is quoted against your contracts, so it is yours to supply.
Illustrative and assumption-driven. Released staff capacity is not a cash-budget reduction; redeploying time does not by itself reduce payroll.
Model your own avoided cost
Enter an event count and cost supported by your facility’s data or a source your committee accepts. These optional assumptions are separate from the labor estimate. Line-Sort does not claim to reduce medication errors; this calculation is not evidence that the product prevents the events you enter.
Line-Sort is an organization aid. It supports the line tracing and verification your policies already require; it does not replace them.
Enter both figures to add this to the result above.
