Bundled Payment Changes: Learn What’s New and How to SucceedHealth Catalyst
In January, CMS announced the Bundled Payment for Care Improvement Advanced “BPCI Advanced” program, initiating renewed interest in a total cost of care payment model for specific episodes of care. Regardless of your organization’s current decision to participate, it’s important to understand how bundled payment programs have the ability to significantly decrease your internal costs, broaden your revenue opportunities, and improve patient outcomes across specific populations. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation’s newest iteration of bundled payments provides another tightly-defined program that allows organizations to scale Population Health Management. Best practice suggests that tactical interventions to assess clinical variation, implement strategic care redesign programs, and to adjust care management-facilitated patient stratification models are important to be successful with bundled payments – so knowing how to implement them is crucial. One organization’s savings is another’s income and without making overhead allocation changes, bundled payments may reduce revenue that has been critically important to maintain hospital profitability. Join this webinar to learn:
* What is new with bundled payments.
* The ramifications bundles can have across organizations.
* Leveraging data and strategic analysis to identify opportunities for bundled payment success.
* Operationalizing successful care program tactics to be successful in bundled payment contracts.

20 Years in Healthcare Analytics & Data Warehousing: What did we learn? What'...Health Catalyst
The enterprise data warehouse (EDW) at Intermountain Healthcare went live in 1998. The EDW at Northwestern Medicine went live in 2006. Dale Sanders was the chief architect and strategist for both. The business inspiration behind Health Catalyst was, in essence, to create the commercial availability of the technology, analytics, and data utilization skills associated with these systems at Intermountain and Northwestern. Lee Pierce assumed leadership of the Intermountain EDW in 2008. Andrew Winter assumed leadership of the Northwestern EDW in 2009, and transitioned leadership of the EDW to Shakeeb Akhter in 2016. This webinar is a fireside chat among friends and colleagues as they look back across their healthcare IT decisions to answer these questions:

ACO = HIE + Analytics - a Healthcare IT PresentationPerficient, Inc.
With the release of the Accountable Care Organization (ACO) regulations, healthcare providers must be able to identify, access, and seamlessly share patient information to drive efficiencies and enjoy a potential share in ACO program incentives. Additionally, more than half of the 93 draft National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) ACO measures are also Meaningful Use measures, which further elevates the need to achieve meaningful use stage 2 or higher.
Given these goals, success will ultimately depend on an organization’s ability to share patient data at the point of care and its ability to gain meaning from historical and longitudinal data for use in managing population health. Healthcare organizations will need to give focused attention to the IT strategies, appropriate architectures, and roadmaps they will use to move from desired state to reality.
We discuss the practical architectural approach for creating an ACO. As Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) evolve into their second generation, they are able to the support the functional ACO tasks of delivering and managing care for a defined population, accept payment, distribute savings to participants, and perform disease management with predictive modeling to improve outcomes. We will also discuss the need to achieve meaningful use stage 2 or higher and the data/analytics requirements for ACO participants.

The Future of Data: High-Value Data is the Next Big ThingHealth Catalyst
The data today’s healthcare leaders need to drive decisions is locked away in siloed source systems. As a result, health systems must devote significant time and expense to access the information they need to empower decision makers.
In today’s rapidly changing healthcare environment, leaders need to make decisions in hours and days— not weeks and months. And too often the requisite data to drive fully informed decisions is unavailable or inaccurate. Meanwhile, over the past 18 months, COVID-19 has increased the urgency for high-value data in decision making. In this webinar, TJ Elbert, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Data, will outline Health Catalyst’s strategy to empower leaders with the trusted, timely, high-value data assets the need to drive decision making and maximize value.
You’ll Learn How to:
• Reduce data acquisition time and cost with DOS Marts™.
• Lower barriers to access through data integration and normalization.
• Create high-value, reusable data assets with Expert Data Collections™.
• Drive insights into clinical workflows and analytics applications through DOS™ data-sharing capabilities.
Big Data Analytics for Healthcare Decision Support- Operational and ClinicalAdrish Sannyasi
Splunk’s data analytics platform could be utilized to solve many high impact business problems in healthcare delivery systems to reduce cost, improve patient outcome and safety, and enhance care coordination experience. Analyze observed behavior from healthcare event data and metadata to discover patterns, monitor compliance, and optimize the workflow. Furthermore 80% of healthcare data is unstructured (clinical free text and documentation), or semi-structured and many new data sources are such as tele health, mobile health, sensors, and devices are getting integrated in many healthcare systems specifically in the area of chronic disease management. So, one need analytics software that can harvest, interpret, enrich, normalize, and model diverse structured and unstructured data and analytics approaches that embrace the “data turmoil” by relying less on standardized data items and more on the capability to process data in any format.

Why a Build-Your-Own Healthcare Data Platform Will Fall Short and What to Do ...Health Catalyst
Health system may have some compelling reasons for choosing to build a data platform versus partner with a healthcare analytics vendor on a commercial solution. However, while organizations may think they’re saving money, gaining control and security, and more by opting for a homegrown approach, they’ll more than likely encounter challenges, hidden costs, and limitations. In comparison to a commercial-grade, healthcare-specific platform from a vendor, build-your-own solutions fall short when it comes to domain-specific content, technical expertise, total cost of ownership, and more. Organizations that partner on a vended platform vastly improve their chances of optimizing and scaling their analytic investment over time and achieving measurable improvement.
Big Data in Healthcare Made Simple: Where It Stands Today and Where It’s GoingHealth Catalyst
Health system leaders have questions about big data: When will I need it? How should I prepare? What’s the best way to use it? It’s important to separate the hype of big data from the reality. Where big data stands in healthcare today is a far cry from where it will be in the future. Right now, the best use cases are in academic- or research-focused healthcare institutions. Most healthcare organizations are still tackling issues with their transactional databases and learning how to use those databases effectively. But soon—once the issues of expertise and security have been addressed—big data will play a huge role in care management, predictive analytics, prescriptive analytics, and genomics for everyday patients. The transition to big data will be easier if health systems adopt a late-binding approach to the data now.

The average academic research organization (ARO) and hospital has many systems that house patient-related information, such as patient records and genomic data. Combining data from a variety of sources in an ongoing manner can enable complex and meaningful querying, reporting and analysis for the purposes of improving patient safety and care, boosting operational efficiency, and supporting personalized medicine initiatives.
In this webinar, Perficient’s Mike Grossman, a director of clinical data warehousing and analytics, and Martin Sizemore, a healthcare strategist, discussed:

infections, pressure ulcers, adverse drug events, serious safety
events, medication management)
Improve Patient Satisfaction
Improve communication with patients about their condition, their care plan, and
expectations for their stay and discharge plan, resulting in higher HCAHPS
scores
Improve Reimbursement
Improve value-based purchasing and affordable care metrics resulting in reduced
hold-backs and increased pay for above-average performance

39. Process - The Classification Decision
The decision to classify a patient as inpatient versus
observation for billing purposes is based on complex medical judgment
Accretive’s licensed physicians consider a number of factors when making their
billing classification recommendations to our clients’ medical staff:
• Patient‟s medical history and current medical needs
• Types of facilities available to outpatients and inpatients
• Relative appropriateness of treatment in each setting
• Severity of signs and symptoms
• Medical predictability of adverse events
