In recent years, talk of healthcare analytics - the use of data, information, statistical and qualitative analysis and explanatory and predictive modeling to improve patient care and care outcomes - has dominated industry conversations, according to Jon Hamdorf in a recent blog on DotMed.com.
Hospitals and care facilities collect huge amounts of information and statistics about patients, procedures and prognoses. But data collection without analytics is virtually useless, Hamdorf, a healthcare solutions manager at Perceptive Software, says. Analytics allow healthcare organizations to sort through the data, understand the implications and deliver on the demands of its constituents.
In the blog, Hamdorf identifies key themes and ideas about the planning and implementation of an enterprise analytics strategy and develops three questions to ask before you begin planning a healthcare analytics framework:
• Is there executive-level buy-in across the organization?
• How to address data governance when defining an analytics strategy?
• How should my organization transition to predictive analytics?
