"Everything that is going on in quality (improvement) nationally … comes down to using data to measure and assess quality, and using the same kind of data to figure out whether the solutions we are putting in place are making the kind of difference that we want."
Dr. Carolyn Clancy, Director of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality - Chicago Tribune, 10/20/2010
New payment models are here to stay. From meaningful use and pay-for-performance through accountable care organizations (ACOs), the message is clear: quality is healthcare's new business metric.
Leading healthcare providers are not waiting for the ax to fall. They are already developing cultures that embrace improvement in quality and cost-effectiveness of care. They know that culture change starts with measurement, accelerates through effective visualization, and succeeds only through evidence-based decision making and leadership.
Successful healthcare providers realize that patient data is their most critical business asset. They know that information is power. For far too long, care providers lacked the tools and the incentive to translate patient data into powerful business information. If you are already making an investment in meaningful use - you now have the opportunity to start leveraging the power of information. But does your electronic medical record (EMR) translate patient data into business value for you?
