AI-Powered Benchmarking Transforms Data into Insight, Improving Organizational Effectiveness

Healthcare organizations have a vast amount of data available. Data need to be converted into better decisions regarding organizational focus, resource allocation, and setting and driving toward appropriate targets to optimize performance. Beyond significant data integration and transformation, optimal leadership decisions require a broad perspective and cutting-edge analytics.

Previously, INTEGRIS Health had high volumes of data but lacked the insight it wanted to drive performance. By leveraging a robust analytics platform, INTEGRIS Health now has more comprehensive and better-integrated data coupled with the cutting-edge analytics it needs to make critical leadership decisions and drive daily performance.

Analytics Enables Optimized COVID-19 Vaccination Efforts

University of Louisville Health (UofL Health) manually extracted COVID-19 vaccine administration data from its EMR and combined it with inventory data to conduct time-consuming reconciliations weekly. It lacked the necessary insights to efficiently model and forecast inventory requirements to administer as many first doses as possible without exhausting its supply of second doses. UofL Health leveraged a vaccine inventory management tool, providing the organization with the necessary data analytics to quickly and accurately model vaccination schedules, forecast vaccine supply needs, identify and resolve quality/safety concerns, and generate required regulatory reports.

Efficient Exchange of Data Improves Alternate Care Site Patient Transfers Increasing Capacity for COVID-19 Surge

Paso Del Norte Health Information Exchange (PHIX) and Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) sought to improve data exchange to support safe, effective transfer of patients to alternative care sites.

Population Health Analytics Enables Improved Quality Increasing Revenue by Nearly $1M

Advanced payment models incentivize Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) to deliver high-quality care and close gaps in care for members, thereby earning shared savings and increasing profits. However, in order to succeed and identify gaps in care, ACOs must be able to rely on solid data and analytics to avoid losing income that could be invested back into patient care. Utilizing its analytics platform and a quality measures solution has allowed Hospital Sisters Health System to close care gaps, improve ACO quality measures performance, and enhance reporting accuracy and effectiveness.
