Healthcare analytics is all the talk in healthcare right now. It’s really no surprise since many have invested millions and even billions of dollars in digitizing their health data. Now they want to extract value from that data. No doubt, the promise of healthcare analytics is powerful. I like to break this promise out into two categories: Patient Analysis and Patient Influence.
Patient Analysis
On the one side of healthcare analytics is analyzing your patient population to pull reports on patients who need extra attention. In some cases, these patients are the most at risk portions of your population with easy to identify disease states.
