4 Learning Objectives What s driving the peak of inflated expectations push towards business intelligence in healthcare? What an enterprise data warehouse and analytics tools environment should look like Where is BI in healthcare going and what are the things to get right the first time?

5 Lots of data, little information and less knowledge WHAT S DRIVING BI IN HEALTHCARE?

6 Business Intelligence (BI) Definition A set of methodologies, processes, architectures, & technologies that transform raw data into meaningful & useful information used to enable more effective strategic, tactical, & operational insights & decision-making.

7 BI for Healthcare Providers Workflow integrated information which enables healthcare providers to drill from reports into detailed analyses of quality, safety, efficiency, effectiveness, regulatory and financial aspects of care practice to identify poor quality, waste, non standard practices, under or over utilized services, & opportunities for improvement.

8 Healthcare Data Maturity Stages Stage 1: Data Collection Characterized by the expanded adoption of EMRs Stage 2: Data Sharing Characterized by the expanded adoption of HIEs Stage 3: Data Analysis Characterized by the adoption of data warehouses Healthcare 1.0 Healthcare 2.0 Source: Dale Sanders, Health Catalyst

9 Healthcare organizations have questions Fact-based or just gut feel? How are the physicians performing in relation to costs and quality? How many patients are readmitted within 30 days of discharge? Questions lead to more questions What are the revenue implications of dif ferent reimbursement models? How can we identify patients during a stay who are high risk for readmission? And still more questions of increasing complexity and value How can we optimize our performance under a new reimbursement arrangement? How can we best treat subpopulations of patients who are at high risk for readmission? Source: The Advisory Board research and analysis.

10 Our Systems Describe the Past; We Need Them to Guide the Future GOAL Degree of Difficulty TODAY 1 Descriptive What happened? Analyze a past capacity bottleneck Report on patient admissions 2 Predictive What might happen? Help predict capacity bottlenecks Identify high -risk patients 3 Prescriptive What should we do? Identify how to optimize capacity Choose the best therapeutic approach for a particular patient How do we cut costs most effectively? Degree of Importance to the HCO Source: The Advisory Board research and analysis.

24 Now What? Gain a deep understanding of your enterprise s strategic direction for the next one, two, and three years to align the BI plan. Form an ACO? Add value-based contracting? Develop centers of excellence? Pursue quality and cost initiatives? Make (or update) your architecture, data model, and tool choices based on your planned BI deliverables. Standalone EDW, bus architecture, or EMR bundled analytics, or? Pre-packaged data model f or descriptive analytics? Specialized tools for research? Re-evaluate your enterprise s engagement with and readiness for your BI agenda. Are key business and clinical execs engaged in leadership roles? Can the silos of federated models be swayed to an enterprise approach? Is the enterprise ready to make hard changes based on the story told by the data?! Get started on building your next phase of the BI maturity model: your enterprise s needs are accelerating. Source: The Advisory Board research and analysis.
