The Heart Failure analytics accelerator supports evidence-based practices (EBPs) to ensure that patients receive the most effective therapies and interventions proven to enhance survival. By leveraging real-time data insights, it enables hospitals to identify opportunities for improvement and deploy interventions that can be measured for effectiveness.

When standardized care pathways are coupled with the accelerator’s data-driven capabilities, teams can consistently follow best-practice treatment approaches while reducing errors and delays in care. Through the integration of EBPs, the accelerator helps monitor key metrics shown to reduce hospital length of stay, decrease hospitalizations and readmissions, lower in-hospital mortality, and improve quality of life for heart failure patients. Additionally, it provides visibility into provider practices and operational patterns, supporting the optimization of heart failure care processes. This data accelerator is an essential tool for identifying and addressing care gaps that can limit the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based treatment.

The Challenge

Health systems that have acquired ambulatory care practices—and independent ambulatory practices alike—face tremendous financial pressures and challenges to financial sustainability. If you’re an ambulatory care leader, you’re looking to improve the efficiency of the services you provide and find cost savings without negatively impacting patient outcomes, the community, or the integrity of the organization. Yet it can be difficult to access data that brings actionable insights to inform decisions to improve patient access, panel management, provider productivity, referral management, or quality scores.

Benefits

  • Timely insights. Delivers timely insights into outcome and process data following coding completion, facilitating rapid process improvements and near real-time visualization of interventions and trends over time.
  • Focused metrics. Includes outcome metrics such as mortality, length of stay, and readmissions, alongside process metrics like medication adherence, daily weight monitoring, and order set utilization.
  • Promotes best practices. Supports the promotion of best practices in heart failure care.
  • Improvement opportunities. Identifies opportunities for process and outcome improvement.
  • Visualizations and reporting. Provides provider and departmental visualizations and reports, to help identify blind spots or address areas that need special attention.
