Analytics Ascendant: Providers Move Forward to Support the New Healthcare

Sponsored by

Join Healthcare Informatics Editor-in-Chief Mark Hagland on September 25 for a special live 60-minute webinar centered around the broad issues facing healthcare and healthcare IT leaders in the areas of analytics and business intelligence solutions, and find out what pioneering patient care organizations are doing.

Even a brief glance at the to-do lists of CEOs and CIOs of hospitals, large medical groups, and integrated health systems reveals why analytics and business intelligence are moving to the forefront of must-have tools for the future. Reducing avoidable readmissions, reducing healthcare-acquired conditions, and participating in value-based purchasing, are all mandatory under the Affordable Care Act; while developing accountable care organizations and bundled-payment contracting are optional and encouraged under the ACA. Meanwhile, programs for patient-centered medical home and primary care practice development are also encouraging new operational models.

With all those developments taking place, and with both the federal government and private health insurers pushing on providers to move forward in all those areas, which involve new forms of reimbursement and new operational and care delivery models, there is no question that analytics and business intelligence will be essential to the success of virtually every hospital and medical group in the country going forward.
