The document discusses the challenges of healthcare organizations building their own data platforms (BYO) versus using a commercial healthcare data platform from a vendor. BYO platforms often struggle with domain-specific healthcare data, ongoing integration costs as technologies change, and insufficient data orchestration. They also lack artificial intelligence expertise. While BYO allows some control, partnering with an expert vendor can help overcome these challenges by shortening the analytics timeline, strengthening analytics, and future-proofing the system.
The Health Catalyst Data Operating System (DOS™): Lessons Learned and Plans ...Health Catalyst
Just over three years ago, Health Catalyst publicly announced the development of the Data Operating System (DOSTM). Conceptually, DOS goes back more than 20 years as a single platform that could support what Dale Sanders calls the “Three Missions of Data”—analytics, data-first application development, and interoperability.
“Data platforms are the next evolution of the technology stack,” Sanders says. While the Cloud made infrastructure an easy and scalable platform, modern operating systems and programming languages made software platforms scalable and easy to build. He cautions, however, “Data wrangling, especially in healthcare, is still a giant challenge.” Sanders explains that DOS is therefore an essential strategy for Health Catalyst, as well as an important new concept in the world of platforms.
“DOS and its concept is a data platform that makes analytics, app development, and interoperability easy and scalable,” Sanders says.
In this webinar, Sanders and Bryan Hinton will review the concept of a data operating system and the vision behind it. Hinton, who leads the DOS team for Health Catalyst, will reflect on lessons learned over the past three years and what he has planned for the future.
A Reference Architecture for Digital Health: The Health Catalyst Data Operati...Health Catalyst
There are essentially four strategic options to address the enterprise data platform requirements of today’s healthcare systems: (1) build your own, (2) buy from EHR vendors, (3) look to a Silicon Valley high-tech startup, and (4) partner with Health Catalyst or a handful of similar companies.
In this webinar, Health Catalyst’s CTO, Dale Sanders, comments on all four approaches, hoping to help you to assess your organization’s strategy against the options and vendors in each category.
It’s been exactly three years since Health Catalyst embarked on a major investment in its next-generation technology, the Data Operating System (DOS™) and its applications. This webinar is an update on the progress, less about marketing the technology, but rather offering DOS as a reference architecture that can support analytics, AI, text processing, data-first application development, and interoperability, as an all-in-one agile cost-savings architecture.
In addition to the successes, Dale comments on the challenges that Health Catalyst has faced under a very ambitious DOS development plan. In its current state, DOS has made some significant improvements to overcome early mistakes, and is now a very solid enterprise data platform. In the interests of industry-wide learning, Sanders will talk transparently about those mistakes and how those learnings are being applied to the DOS platform, positioning it to evolve gracefully over the next 25 years.
View the webinar to learn how the DOS reference architecture:
- Helps manage the 2,000+ compulsory measures in US healthcare
- Enables applications as varied as a real-time patient safety surveillance system, and an activity-based costing system in one platform
- Can ingest data of any type or velocity from over 300 healthcare source systems and growing
- Bundles tools, applications, and analytics that would cost 3-6x more to build on your own
- Compares to EHR vendors as an option to serve as an enterprise data and analytics platform
- Is a performant, sustainable, and maintainable platform for deploying AI models in the natural flow of the healthcare data pipeline
- Provides curated data content and models while still allowing for the agility of a late binding design option
- Functions as a reference architecture that all healthcare organizations and vendors will ultimately have to build in their pursuit of digital health

Interoperability in Healthcare: Making the Most of FHIRHealth Catalyst
With the CMS and ONC March 2020 endorsement of HL7 FHIR R4, FHIR is positioned to grow from a niche application programming interface (API) standard to a common API framework. With broader adoption, FHIR promises to support expanding healthcare interoperability and prepare the industry for complex use cases by addressing significant challenges:
Engaging consumers.
Sharing data with modern standards.
Building a solid foundation for healthcare interoperability.
Finding the perfect data governance environment is an elusive target. It’s important to govern to the least extent necessary in order to achieve the greatest common good. With the three data governance cultures, authoritarian, tribal, and democratic, the latter is best for a balanced, productive governance strategy.
The Triple Aim of data governance is: 1) ensuring data quality, 2) building data literacy, and 3) maximizing data exploitation for the organization’s benefit. The overall strategy should be guided by these three principles under the guidance of the data governance committee.
Data governance committees need to be sponsored at the executive board and leadership level, with supporting roles defined for data stewards, data architects, database and systems administrators, and data analysts. Data governance committees need to avoid the most common failure modes: wandering, technical overkill, political infighting, and bureaucratic red tape.
Healthcare organizations that are undergoing analytics adoption will also go through six phases of data governance including: 1) establishing the tone for becoming a data-driven organization, 2) providing access to data, 3) establishing data stewards, 4) establishing a data quality program, 5) exploiting data for the benefit of the organization, 6) the strategic acquisition of data to benefit the organization.
As U.S. healthcare moves into its next stage of evolution, the organizations that will survive and thrive will be those who most effectively acquire, analyze, and utilize their data to its fullest extent. Such is the mission of data governance.

The Biggest Barriers to Healthcare InteroperabilityHealth Catalyst
Improving healthcare interoperability is a top priority for health systems today. Fundamental problems around improving interoperability include standardization of terminology and normalization of data to those standards. And, the volume of data healthcare IT systems produce exacerbates these problems.
While interoperability regulations focus on trying to make it easy to find and exchange patient data across multiple organizations and HIEs, the legislation’s lack of fine print and aggressive implementation timelines nearly ensures the proliferation of existing interoperability problems. This article discusses the biggest barriers to interoperability, possible solutions to interoperability problems, and why it matters.
Data stewards are the implementation arm of Data Governance. They are also the first line of defense against bad data practices. Whether it’s data profiling or in-depth root cause analysis, data stewards ensure the organization’s shared data is reliably interconnected. Whether starting or restarting your Data Stewardship program, success comes from:
- Understanding the cadence/role of foundational data practices supporting organizational operations
- Proving value with tangible ROI
- Improving effectiveness/efficiencies using organization-wide insight
- Comprehending how stewards need to be multifunctional and dexterous, especially at first

Data Mining in Healthcare: How Health Systems Can Improve Quality and Reduce...Health Catalyst
This is the complete 4-part series demonstrating real-world examples of the power of data mining in healthcare. Effective data mining requires a three-system approach: the analytics system (including an EDW), the content system (and systematically applying evidence-based best practices to care delivery), and the deployment system (driving change management throughout the organization and implementing a dedicated team structure). Here, we also show organizations with successful data-mining-application in critical areas such as: tracking fee-for-service and value-based payer contracts, population health management initiatives involving primary care reporting, and reducing hospital readmissions. Having the data and tools to use data mining and predict trends is giving these health systems a big advantage.
The numbers tell the story: 84% of C-suite executives believe they must leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to achieve their growth objectives, yet 76% report they struggle with how to scale. With the stakes higher than ever, what can we learn from companies that are successfully scaling AI, achieving nearly 3X the return on investments and an average 32% premium on key financial valuation metrics?
To answer that question, Accenture conducted a landmark global study involving 1,500 C-suite executives from organizations across 16 industries. The aim: Help companies progress on their AI journey, from one-off AI experimentation to gaining a robust organization-wide capability that acts as a source of competitive agility and growth.

Healthcare Interoperability: New Tactics and TechnologyHealth Catalyst
Every provider agrees on the need for healthcare interoperability to achieve clinical data insights at the point of care. The question is how to get there from the myriad technologies and the volumes of data that comprise electronic medical records. It’s been difficult to organize among participants that have had little incentive to cooperate. And standards for sending and receiving data have been slow to develop. This is changing, but the key components that are still vital to realizing insights are closed-loop analytics and its accompanying tools, an enterprise data warehouse and analytics applications. This article defines the problems and explores the solutions to optimizing clinical decision making where it’s needed most.
Agnostic Analytics Solutions vs. EHRs: Six Reasons EHRs Can’t Deliver True He...Health Catalyst
As enterprisewide analytics demands grow across healthcare, health systems that rely on EHRs from major vendors are hitting limitations in their analytics capabilities. EHR vendors have responded with custom and point-solution tools, but these tend to generate more complications (e.g., multiple data stores and disjointed solutions) than analytics interoperability.
To get value out of existing EHRs while also evolving towards more mature analytics, health systems must partner with an analytics vendor that provides an enterprise data management and analytics platform as well as deep improvement implementation experience. Vendor tools and expertise will help organizations leverage their EHRs to meet population health management and value-based payment goals, as well as pursue some of today’s top healthcare strategic goals:
Growth.
Innovation.
Digitization.
Data Visualization Dashboards: Three Ways to Maximize DataHealth Catalyst
With an unpredictable future due to COVID-19, health systems must leverage data to drive decision making at every organizational level. Data visualization dashboards allow health systems to optimize their data and create a data-driven culture by displaying large, real-time data sets in an easy-to-understand dashboard.
Health systems that rely on dashboard reporting maximize their data in three important ways:
Time to value. Decision makers do not have time to wait for manually-created reports; dashboards quickly convey information so leaders can make swift decisions.
Data democratization. Leveraging a central source of truth, dashboards allow leaders at every level to access the most updated, accurate data.
Digestible data. Analysts can configure dashboards to highlight important figures and trends, so high-level leaders can understand complex data without diving into spreadsheets.

Activity-Based Costing in Healthcare During COVID-19: Meeting Four Critical N...Health Catalyst
As health systems increasingly transition to a value-based care model, the financial strains and uncertainty of COVID-19 have placed more urgency on cost management. More than ever, organizations need a costing solution that helps them understand the true value of their services. With the right next-generation activity-based costing (ABC) tool, health systems can access the detailed data they need to lower the cost of care, automate costing activities, and reduce administrative costs while preparing for the mounting intricacy of the post-pandemic setting.
Activity-based costing meets healthcare’s complex COVID-19-era costing needs by addressing four big challenges:
Data management.
Scalability.
Ongoing maintenance.
Adoption.
Innovative Healthcare Partnerships: Making the Most of Merging Resources and ...Health Catalyst
Healthcare mergers and acquisitions performed solidly in 2020, despite the downturn in the U.S. economy and healthcare in general. Organizations responded to new challenges by partnering with each other to build core business strengths, address gaps in care delivery the pandemic exposed, and enhance their resources to navigate current and future crises.
Realizing the potential of emerging healthcare partnerships requires an open and scalable analytics infrastructure plus a cultural and contractual openness to allow innovation to flourish. Organizations that have adopted an open analytics platform have the data operating advantage to form partnerships, efficiently and smoothly bring best-of-breed solutions to market, and enable the innovative potential of collaborations.
Healthcare Analytics Platform: DOS Delivers the 7 Essential ComponentsHealth Catalyst
The Data Operating System (DOS™) is a vast data and analytics ecosystem whose laser focus is to rapidly and efficiently improve outcomes across every healthcare domain. DOS is a cornerstone in the foundation for building the future of healthcare analytics. This white paper from Imran Qureshi details the seven capabilities of DOS that combine to unlock data for healthcare improvement:
1. Acquire
2. Organize
3. Standardize
4. Analyze
5. Deliver
6. Orchestrate
7. Extend
These seven components will reveal how DOS is a data-first system that can extract value from healthcare data and allow leadership and analytics teams to fully develop the insights necessary for health system transformation.
A Healthcare Mergers Framework: How to Accelerate the BenefitsHealth Catalyst
Health system mergers can promise significant savings for participating organizations. Research, however, indicates as much as a tenfold gap between expectation and reality, with systems looking for a savings of 15 percent but more likely to realize savings around 1.5 percent.
Driving the merger expectation-reality disparity is a complex process that, without diligent preparation and strategy, makes it difficult for organizations to fully leverage cost synergies. With the right framework, however, health systems can achieve the process management, data sharing, and governance structure to align leadership, clinicians, and all stakeholders around merger goals.
A Healthcare Digitization Framework: 5 StrategiesHealth Catalyst
While most consumer-oriented industries have turned to mobile-first, cloud-based platforms for consumer interaction, healthcare lags behind in digitization, particularly when it comes to self-service consumer engagement. As digital consumer interaction increasingly drives enterprise success, healthcare must join the modern digital playing field.

Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Meaning, Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, and Mor...The Lifesciences Magazine
Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the deep veins in the legs. These clots can impede blood flow, leading to severe complications.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image
