About
Dr. Anjali Hari is a leading voice in surgical health systems resilience, with her work proving indispensable during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her primary research focuses on optimizing surgical triage, resource allocation, and maintaining essential operative services during public health crises. Dr. Hari’s most significant contribution is the modification and validation of the Medically Necessary Time Sensitive Surgery (MeNTS) scoring tool, a framework designed to prioritize surgical cases when hospital capacity is strained. This work, published in 2021 and cited 8 times, provided a critical, evidence-based system for hospitals navigating the fluctuating demands of the pandemic, helping to balance the urgent needs of COVID-19 patients with the backlog of delayed elective surgeries. By creating a reliable, adaptable scoring system, Dr. Hari has given healthcare administrators and surgeons a practical tool to make difficult decisions, ensuring that time-sensitive procedures are not indefinitely postponed. Her research continues to shape how surgical services are organized for future pandemic response and disaster preparedness, making her a key figure in the field of surgical safety and operational continuity.
