Unlock the Power of Predictive Analytics in Healthcare Operations

From managing patient care to optimizing resources, the pressure on hospital executives to deliver efficient and effective care is ever-present. However, amidst these complexities, there's often a missing piece of the puzzle: predictive analytics. Predictive analytics hold the promise of transforming healthcare operations by providing invaluable insights into workflows, resource utilization, and organizational efficiency, enabling you to get ahead of challenges and bottlenecks before their arrival.

The Current Landscape:

Hospital executives often grapple with operational solutions that fall short of expectations. Electronic Health Records (EHRs), while indispensable, have been criticized for their limited capabilities. In a recent survey of hospital executives we conducted, it was revealed that a staggering 42% of c-suite executives expressed dissatisfaction with their EHRs' ability to provide predictive intelligence to prevent organizational bottlenecks.  

This dissatisfaction underscores a critical need for more robust predictive analytics in healthcare operational solutions. Achieving efficient workflows is impossibly challenging without the right insights. While EHRs excel at the documentation they were designed for, they often fall short of expectations when it comes to operational tools. Having predictive analytics as part of your operational toolkit helps your organization better plan for upcoming challenges and ultimately prevent issues that negatively affect operations.  

Completing the Picture with Predictive Analytics:

By harnessing the power of data, predictive analytics enables hospitals to forecast trends, anticipate barriers, and optimize resource allocation. This enables you to turn all that data into valuable, actionable insights. However, despite their potential, many operational solutions in the healthcare market fall short in this crucial aspect. The demand for predictive analytics is evident, with organizations recognizing their significance in driving operational excellence and improving patient outcomes.

While your existing operational solution might provide a surplus of data, it mostly remains confined to past and present insights. While real-time and historical insights are essential for day-to-day operations, predictive analytics complete the bigger picture. You need historical, real-time, and predictive analytics that are unified and connected to one another in order to gain the holistic understanding necessary to facilitate long-term sustainable improvement.

Augmenting Your EHR’s Capabilities:

While EHRs have revolutionized healthcare documentation and information management, they often lack the advanced predictive analytics capabilities needed to truly optimize operations. Despite years of development and refinement, EHRs rarely provide actionable insights that enable proactive decision-making. Hospital executives are faced with a dilemma: wait for EHR vendors to catch up with evolving needs or seek alternative solutions that can complement existing systems. Many organizations are now choosing to complement their EHR with best-of-breed solutions that add predictive capabilities.
