More than half of health care organizations surveyed have yet to implement a business intelligence (BI) system, according to a poll conducted on behalf of TEKsystems. The survey of more than 250 healthcare professionals, including IT executives and medical staff, found that BI implementation was stalled by data complexity and lack of resources and skill sets.
According to an article on the Health Data Management website, three-quarters of survey respondents indicated that they expected a BI system to be widely used in operations (75 percent), finance (76 percent) and clinical care (71 percent).
