KPA Management Benefits and Features
Gain a comprehensive, clinically meaningful view of your business.
The KPA analytic accelerator leverages Health Catalyst’s Clinical Hierarchy, which organizes your data by the work that clinicians do. The application is able to show your total business (e.g., your cardiology, obstetric, or oncology business) as it spans inpatient and outpatient settings and can highlight variation within care processes at a granularity that makes sense to clinicians.
Quickly identify and prioritize improvement opportunities around clinical care processes.
The KPA application highlights variation in cost and clinical outcomes within a care process. For example, it can reveal variation in care across providers delivering that care and can quantify the opportunity associated with care variation. The application also shows total time spent caring for patients and leverages financial metrics to identify resource consumption.
Filter and explore the data to better understand opportunities and guide improvement intervention.
KPA lets you apply risk adjustment using either APR-DRG severity illness, HHS-HCC, or Charlson/Deyo risk index scores. Users are able to look at variation in different metrics of cost, charges, and length of stay—and to drill into different sites and provider variation for a selected care process.
