The Value of Analytics in Healthcare

     Article: Author: James W. Cortada, Dan Gordon Ph.D, and Bill Lenihan | Source: IBM | February 2, 2012

Healthcare organizations around the world are challenged by pressures to reduce costs, improve coordination and outcomes, provide more with less and be more patient centric. Yet, at the same time, evidence is mounting that the industry is increasingly challenged by entrenched inefficiencies and sub-optimal clinical outcomes. In this study we interviewed more than 130 healthcare executives to get answers to some key questions including

  • How are healthcare provider and payor organizations applying analytics today, and how might they need to think about its future use?
  • How do high performing organizations use it differently than their peers?
  • What are the barriers to adoption?
  • What forward-looking analytics innovations can healthcare organizations apply to meet their mounting challenges?

Download this paper to get answers to these and other interesting findings.
