The availability of healthcare IT solutions can be overwhelming and all promise to solve an organization’s most pressing issues. While typical data and analytic applications are excellent at exposing opportunities for improvement that are impacting the bottom line, most are not effective at helping the organization determine what to do to address them and improve outcomes. However, a new approach to creating analytics applications is emerging. Analytics applications that incorporate best practices clinical content along with the best practices visualizations help everyone understand the problem and the solution. These applications also enable clinicians to better understand, adopt, roll out, and execute outcome improvement initiatives with healthcare systems. Health Catalyst has deliberately created a comprehensive, dynamic suite of applications that integrate clinical content and facilitate the orderly implementation of action plans.
