Why Payers, Providers and Life Science/Pharma Must Join Forces to Achieve Tru...Health Catalyst
Is value-based care (VBC) the path to reducing the 18% of GDP that is spent on healthcare? It just may be, but all parties must play their part. Iya Khalil, chief commercial officer & co-founder at GNS Healthcare argues that in order for VBC to reach peak levels of performance and adoption, there must be a convergence of understanding between three key players: payers, providers and the life science industry.
These three parties have developed lifesaving innovations, tech-enabled new procedures, and advanced medical training that have all contributed over the last half century to push the US economy to spend an unsustainable amount on healthcare. Data and analytics are key to fixing this problem and are transforming the way that healthcare is delivered, however, VBC implementation remains complex. In this webinar Iya and Elia Stupka, SVP and general manager, life sciences business at Health Catalyst discuss how the healthcare industry reached this tipping point, why the move to VBC is so important, and how these parties can jointly work together to make healthcare sustainable.
View the webinar and learn:
- How you can make the move to VBC
- The importance of AI and data to drive VBC
VBC will happen and presents an unprecedented moment for payers, providers and life science groups to work together.

Dale Sanders provides an update on the Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model. Dale published the first version of this model in 2002, calling it the Analytics Capability Maturity Model. The three intentions at that time are the same as they are today: 1) Provide healthcare leaders with a clear roadmap for the progression of analytic maturity in their organization. 2) Provide vendors with a roadmap to meet the analytic needs of clients. 3) Create a common framework to benchmark the progressive adoption of analytics at the industry level.
In 2012, Dale co-published a new version of the Model with Dr. Denis Protti, rebranding it the Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model and purposely borrowing from the widespread adoption of the EMR Adoption Model (EMRAM) published and supported by HIMSS. In 2015, Dale transferred the model under a creative commons copyright to HIMSS to create a vendor-independent industry standard that is now widely applied to support the original three intentions. He continues to collaborate with HIMSS to progress the Model.
During this webinar, Dale:
-Reviews the current state of the Health Catalyst Model, including recent changes that advocate a ninth level—direct-to-patient analytics and AI.
-Shares his observations of maturity in the market.
-Provides an update on the current state of the HIMSS Adoption Model for Analytic Maturity.

Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model -- UpdatedHealth Catalyst
The Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model is the result of a collaboration of healthcare industry veterans over the last 15 years. The model borrows lessons learned from the HIMSS EMR Adoption Model, and describes an analogous approach for assessing the adoption of analytics in healthcare.
The Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model provides:
1) A framework for evaluating the industry’s adoption of analytics
2) A roadmap for organizations to measure their own progress toward analytic adoption
3) A framework for evaluating vendor products
This Analytics Adoption Model will enable healthcare organizations to fully understand and leverage the capabilities of analytics and so achieve the ultimate goal that has eluded most provider organizations – that of improving the quality of care while lowering costs and enhancing clinician and patient satisfaction.
In this webinar, Dale Sanders will provide a pragmatic, step-by-step, and measurable roadmap for the adoption of analytics in healthcare-- a roadmap that organizations can use to plot their strategy and evaluate vendors; and that vendors can use to develop their products. Attendees will have a chance to learn about:
1) The details of his eight-level model, 2) A brief introduction to the HIMSS/IIA DELTA Model, 3) The importance of permanent organizational teams to sustain improvements from analytic investments, 4) The process of curating and maturing data governance, and 5) The coordination of a data acquisition strategy with payment and reimbursement strategies
While Healthcare 1.0 was broadly defined by a focus on defensive medicine, billing, and fee-for-service, culminating in the mass adoption of EMRs, Healthcare 2.0 is a new wave focused on improving clinical efficiency, quality of care, affordability, and fee-for-value; culminating in a new age of healthcare analytics. This new age of analytics will require a new set of organizational skills and a foundational set of analytic information systems that many executives have not anticipated.
Join Dale Sanders, a 20-year healthcare CIO veteran and the industry's leading analytics expert, as he discusses his lessons learned, best practices in analytics, and what the C-level suite needs to know about this topic, now. Listen to Dale discuss 1) A step-by-step curriculum for analytic adoption and maturity in healthcare organizations, 2) the basic approach to a late-binding data warehouse, 3) pros and cons of early versus late binding, 4) the volatility in vocabulary and business rules in healthcare, 5) how to engineer your data to accommodate volatility in the future

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
