The 300th Case Study – How We Got Here

On June 15 Health Catalyst published its300^thcustomer case study，主打WakeMed Health and Hospitals。为了准备达到300家，我们回顾了庞大的案例研究库，回顾了一些令人难以置信的突破和里程碑，这些突破和里程碑推动了医疗改革，并使我们的客户能够实现其大胆的使命。

Together, we’ve enabled clinical improvements, reduced stroke mortality rates, and reduced healthcare waste, among other clinical, operational, and financial improvements.

The impact of our efforts has resulted in

• $1.5 billion validated measurable improvements
• 5.4 million lives positively impacted by improvement initiatives
• 2.9 million care gaps closed

Read below for a closer look and a few examples of how we got here.

Enabling Clinical Improvements

“健康促进会”世界杯葡萄牙vs加纳即时走地第一个发表的案例研究中，有一个以华盛顿塔2022年世界杯预赛分组科马市为基地的多元健康系统(MultiCare)为特色。In 2013,MultiCare记录显示，在实施Health Catalyst的适应性数据仓库™后，它能够将败血症死亡率平均降低22%。世界杯葡萄牙vs加纳即时走地

Up to 50 percent of all hospital deaths in the United States are linked to sepsis, according to a report from theJournal of American Medical Association. Due to the complex comorbidity factors leading to sepsis, MultiCare partnered with Health Catalyst to refine the clinical definition of sepsis. Health Catalyst’s data work allowed MultiCare to explore the boundaries of the definition and to ultimately settle on an algorithm that defined a septic patient.

In addition, MultiCare developed a modified early warning system (MEWS) dashboard that leveraged the new definition and electronic medical records (EMR) to quickly identify patients who were trending towards a sudden downturn. Hospital staff constantly monitors MEWS which serves as an early detection tool.

自2013年MultiCare的案例研究以来，Health Catalyst世界杯葡萄牙vs加纳即时走地公布了10多家医院和卫生系统的案例研究，2022年世界杯预赛分组这些医院和卫生系统降低了败血症死亡率和与败血症相关的住院时间(LOS)，并承诺持续改善这种疾病状态。Read those stories,here.

Reducing the Stroke Mortality Rate

Health Catalyst’s library of case studies features numerous partners that have made significant clinical advancements in stroke care.

Stroke is a leading cause of death in the United States – on average, one American dies from stroke every four minutes with more than 795,000 deaths annually,according to the CDC.

Health Catalyst’s first published case study about stroke care was in 2016, recording howAllina Health’s Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institutewas able to successfully implement a care coordination model for stroke patients that reduced the mortality per 1000 strokes from 36 to zero. Patients with care management services experienced an 8 percent less chance of a secondary stroke within 180 days of discharge.

导致这些结果的模型组件之一是使用Health Catalyst的数据仓库和分析平台——该项目集成了整个企业的临床、人口统计、成本、索赔和患者功能数据。世界杯葡萄牙vs加纳即时走地世界杯厄瓜多尔vs塞内加尔波胆预测该平台使世界杯厄瓜多尔vs塞内加尔波胆预测临床医生能够在入院后尽快识别和锁定高风险患者，进行协调卒中护理，证明护理管理的价值，通过改善的结果建立模型，测量和提高患者满意度。

Since Allina Health’s documented success, Health Catalyst has highlighted several other partners who achieved substantial health outcomes for stroke patients through the utilization of data and analytics. Those case study examples can be foundhere.

Improving Diabetes Diagnosis

In 2019, theQueen’s Health Systems(Queen’s), the largest nonprofit network of hospitals and health-related entities serving Hawaii residents, adopted the Self-Service Analytics Suite to enable the accelerated implementation of custom algorithms to better identify patients with undiagnosed pre-diabetes, diabetes, and hypertension, as well as patients with past-due diabetes/pre-diabetes screenings.

Although staff was capable of building and implementing the algorithms, staffing constraints and disparate EMRs created delays. Queen’s needed to accelerate the process to secure a Hawaii Department of Health grant designated for improving the management of patients with diabetes.

通过采用自助分析套件，Queen 's加快了自定义算法的实现，能够快速有效地识别未诊断糖尿病、未诊断糖尿病前期和/或过期糖尿病/糖尿病前期筛查患者。

Making Data Integration Less Labor Intensive

In 2017, Health Catalyst partnerOrlando Health, one of Florida’s most comprehensive private, not-for-profit healthcare networks consisting of eight hospitals and 50 clinics, instated effective data integration that significantly reduced data acquisition times.

Orlando Health needed the ability to rapidly acquire and link disparate healthcare data sources in various ways to answer critical clinical and business questions. After transitioning from an old EDW to Health Catalyst’s Analytics Platform built using the Late-Binding™ Data Warehouse architecture, Orlando Health achieved the following efficiencies:

• 245 fewer days and 1.0 less full-time employee needed to integrate encounter billing summary system data.
• 56 fewer days and 0.4 less full-time employee needed to integrate Infection control system data.
• 实现系统增强所需的时间减少了99%(节省了90天)。
• 98 percent reduction in the work hours needed to incorporate system enhancements.

Identifying Workflow Waste Leads to Sizable Savings

One of the earliest case studies published by Health Catalyst highlighted the sizable amount of healthcare waste that can be avoided at one hospital by implementing a data and analytics solution. In 2015,Texas Children’s Hospitalimproved care quality, increased system wide efficiency, and eliminated workflow waste—all while lowering costs— by using integrated operational and financial data.

为了实现最终的改善，Texas Children利用了Health Catalyst现有的Late-Binding™企业数据仓库平台。世界杯葡萄牙vs加纳即时走地世界杯厄瓜多尔vs塞内加尔波胆预测

通过让领导人员能够随时访问集成的、接近实时的财务和运营信息，医院提高了质量，提高了整个系统的效率，消除了工作流浪费——通过新的财务和运营分析，实现了7400万美元的性能改善，其中很大一部分来自于新的财务和运营分析。

在这些节省中，估计有1200万美元归因于劳动绩效的改善。

Using Analytics to Identify Expense Reduction Opportunities Across the Board

With healthcare increasingly moving toward value based care,Allina Healthrecognized the need to focus more sharply on ways to fund its mission. As a large health system with limited resources, the health system was challenged to standardize work to improve outcomes and reduce costs.

Allina Health used the Health Catalyst® Analytics Platform and broad suite of analytics applications as its primary source for managing and mining data. To identify opportunities for improving clinical value, data analysts used the rich data in the analytics platform to find undesirable variation in high-cost, high-volume clinical care processes.

With a data-driven, multidisciplinary team effort, Allina Health’s Clinical Value Program improved care and delivered on the Triple Aim.

Details of Allina Health’s success include:

• $32.7 million savings validated by implementing 71 projects within the first two years of the program.
• $1.1 million savings in less than one year by adopting a minimalist approach to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. This change also reduced LOS by 31 percent and achieved a 17.4 percent relative reduction in median procedure time.

In Conclusion

Since Health Catalyst’s first published case study in 2013, we continue to be in awe of the achievements our customers have documented, verified, and shared, bring the Health Catalyst case study odyssey of healthcare improvements tothe 300^ththat we published on June 15^th.

我们祝贺每一位为这些变革成就做出贡献的医疗专业人员，并感谢他们持续致力于在自己的系统中提供大规模、可衡量的、基于数据的改进。
