24. “Bellagio Buffet” Analytics: Necessary for COVID Recovery
(Analytics Best Practices — Course Level: Intermediate)
You have a lot of choices when you eat out—from fast food that gives you a quick meal with minimal nourishment to a high-class buffet like the Bellagio in Las Vegas, which gives you choices, great flavor, and nutrition—everything you need to feel completely satisfied. Like the buffet at the Bellagio, analytics teams nourish health systems by combining the right ingredients of technology and care delivery expertise.
In this session, we will share how the best health systems leverage analytics in support of COVID recovery. We’ll provide a rubric to assess analytics for your health system and tips to become an analytically mature organization.
This session provides tips to mature your analytics:
- Find real opportunities.
- Quantify them and the resource lift to capture them.
- Prioritize by aligning with key strategies for the organization, department, and team.
- Elevate data analytics understanding throughout the organization through training.
