Three Cost-Saving Strategies to Reduce Healthcare SpendingHealth Catalyst
Health systems continue to face fiscal challenges and burdens due to changing reimbursement rates, COVID-19, and managing the aftermath of care disruptions from the pandemic. Operating on thin margins with limited resources means health systems need to adopt alternative cost-saving measures to maximize limited resources.
Comprehensive, reliable data increases visibility into expenses across the care continuum so that leaders can leverage new methods to save money, generate income, and accelerate cashflow to keep patients healthy and hospital doors open. With access to recent data, health systems can focus on three cost-saving strategies:
Increase physician engagement.
Predict propensity to pay.
Implement evidence-based standards of care.

Drive Better Outcomes with Four Data-Informed Patient Engagement TacticsHealth Catalyst
Increased patient engagement leads to better clinical outcomes, but organizations still struggle to engage patients and their families in their care. To start, patients have different levels of interest in their care and competency regarding healthcare, which adds to the challenge of treating each patient like a member of the care team.
However difficult these patient engagement roadblocks are, organizations can use data to overcome them. Access to data allows healthcare leaders and providers to identify opportunities to optimize patient engagement. By implementing four data-informed tactics, systems can increase patient engagement and improve health outcomes:
1. Implement shared decision-making interventions.
2. Advance health equity.
3. Prioritize patient feedback.
4. Provide patient-centered education.
Six Steps to Managing an Infection Control BreachHealth Catalyst
Despite widespread efforts to improve patient safety, infection control breaches still happen at an alarming rate. In order to improve patient safety and prevent infections, healthcare organizations need to have infection control procedures in place and regularly assess protocols and adherence to these policies. In the case of an infection control breach, organizations need to be prepared to act quickly and follow a six-step evaluation procedure outlined by the CDC:
1. Identify the infection control breach.
2. Gather additional data.
3. Notify and involve key stakeholders.
4. Perform a qualitative assessment.
5. Make decisions about patient notification and testing.

The Digitization of Healthcare: Why the Right Approach Matters and Five Steps...Health Catalyst
While many industries are leveraging digital transformation to accelerate their productivity and quality, healthcare ranks among the least digitized sectors. Healthcare data is largely incomplete when it comes to fully representing a patient’s health and doesn’t adequately support diagnoses and treatment, risk prediction, and long-term health care plans. But even with the obvious urgency for increased healthcare digitization, the industry must raise this trajectory with sensitivity to the impacts on clinicians and patients. The right digital strategy will not only aim for more comprehensive information on patient health, but also leverage data to empower and engage the people involved.
Health systems can follow five guidelines to digitize in a sustainable, impactful way:
Achieve and maintain clinician and patient engagement.
Adopt a modern commercial digital platform.
Digitize the assets (the patients) and the processes.
Understand the importance of data to drive AI insights.
Prioritize data volume.
The Top Three 2020 Healthcare Trends and How to PrepareHealth Catalyst
After a tumultuous 2019, healthcare organizations are pivoting to make sense of the latest changes and prepare to face the top 2020 healthcare trends:
Consumerism—Can health systems respond to the consumer demands of better access and price transparency?
Financial Performance—With mergers, acquisitions, and private sector companies entering the healthcare arena, how will traditional hospitals and clinics compete?
Social Issues—How will health organizations respond to the opioid crisis and consider social determinants of health as part of the care process to provide comprehensive treatment?
As health systems struggle to survive amidst constant change, they must look forward and proactively prepare for what’s to come in 2020.
Telehealth: A Top Organizational Performance Solution During COVID-19 and BeyondHealth Catalyst
With COVID-19 sending health systems reeling, leaders understand the only way organizations can survive the pandemic is by driving improvement in three key areas: revenue, cost, and quality. Many traditional healthcare delivery methods, such as in-person visits, are on hold, leaving health system leaders considering how telehealth solutions allow organizations to excel in the new industry normal.
Although many health systems see telehealth as a temporary healthcare delivery solution because of COVID-19, it is here to stay. And, if health systems invest in telehealth, they will be more likely to succeed in revenue, cost, and quality, even in a pandemic.
Customer Journey Analytics: Cracking the Patient Engagement Challenge for PayersHealth Catalyst
Customer journey analytics uses machine learning and big data to track and analyze when and through what channels customers interact with an organization, with an aim to influence behavior (e.g., buying behaviors among retail customers). Similarly, healthcare organizations want to influence health-related behaviors, such a taking medication as prescribed and not smoking, to improve outcomes and lower the cost of care. In a partnership with an analytics services provider, a payer organization is leveraging customer journey analytics among healthcare consumers to identify the best opportunities and channels for patient outreach. With this analytics-driven engagement strategy, the payer has found an opportunity to significantly improve patient engagement—a predicted overall increase from 18 percent to 31 percent.
Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: A Change Management ProblemHealth Catalyst
The key to successfully leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare rests not wholly in the technical aspects of predictive and prescriptive machines but also in change management within healthcare organizations. Better adoption and results with AI rely on a commitment to the challenge of change, the right tools, and a human-centered perspective.
To succeed in change management and get optimal value from predictive and prescriptive models, clinical and operational leaders must use three perspectives:
Functional: Does the model make sense?
Contextual: Does the model fit into the workflow?
Operational: What benefits and risks are traded?

Healthcare organizations have worked hard to improve patient safety over the past several decades, however harm is still occurring at an unacceptable rate. Though the healthcare industry has made efforts (largely regulatory) to reduce patient harm, these measures are often not integrated with health system quality improvement efforts and may not result in fewer adverse events. This is largely because they fail to integrate regulatory data with improvement initiatives and, thus, to turn patient harm information into actionable insight.
Fully integrated clinical, cost, and operational data coupled with predictive analytics and machine learning are crucial to patient safety improvement. Tools that leverage this methodology will identify risk and suggest interventions across the continuum of care.

Many traditional healthcare delivery methods, such as in-person visits, are on hold, leaving health system leaders considering how telehealth solutions allow organizations to excel in the new industry normal.
Although many health systems see telehealth as a temporary healthcare delivery solution because of COVID-19, it is here to stay. And, if health systems invest in telehealth, they will be more likely to succeed in revenue, cost, and quality, even in a pandemic.
Customer Journey Analytics: Cracking the Patient Engagement Challenge for PayersHealth Catalyst
Customer journey analytics uses machine learning and big data to track and analyze when and through what channels customers interact with an organization, with an aim to influence behavior (e.g., buying behaviors among retail customers). Similarly, healthcare organizations want to influence health-related behaviors, such a taking medication as prescribed and not smoking, to improve outcomes and lower the cost of care. In a partnership with an analytics services provider, a payer organization is leveraging customer journey analytics among healthcare consumers to identify the best opportunities and channels for patient outreach. With this analytics-driven engagement strategy, the payer has found an opportunity to significantly improve patient engagement—a predicted overall increase from 18 percent to 31 percent.
Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare: A Change Management ProblemHealth Catalyst
The key to successfully leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare rests not wholly in the technical aspects of predictive and prescriptive machines but also in change management within healthcare organizations. Better adoption and results with AI rely on a commitment to the challenge of change, the right tools, and a human-centered perspective.
To succeed in change management and get optimal value from predictive and prescriptive models, clinical and operational leaders must use three perspectives:
Functional: Does the model make sense?
Contextual: Does the model fit into the workflow?
Operational: What benefits and risks are traded?

Presentation delivered by Donna Medina, Regional Director,OSF Hospice and Homecare Foundation at the marcus evans Home Care Leadership Summit held on July 13 & 14 2015 in Palm Beach FL.
Healthcare organizations have worked hard to improve patient safety over the past several decades, however harm is still occurring at an unacceptable rate. Though the healthcare industry has made efforts (largely regulatory) to reduce patient harm, these measures are often not integrated with health system quality improvement efforts and may not result in fewer adverse events. This is largely because they fail to integrate regulatory data with improvement initiatives and, thus, to turn patient harm information into actionable insight.
Fully integrated clinical, cost, and operational data coupled with predictive analytics and machine learning are crucial to patient safety improvement. Tools that leverage this methodology will identify risk and suggest interventions across the continuum of care.
