What are some steps you will recommend to advance the use of analytics in your
organization?
Data in a healthcare organization, not known to many, can drive decisions and thus the
impact certain steps might have on the organization. We are at a time where most companies
are learning the importance of data and by that collecting it in its simplest forms. The first
step towards improving the use of analytics is teaching organizations to pay attention to every
piece of data that is being generated from their operations. In hospitals, the most basic data
are patient records which through data analytics can be turned into informed insight thus
easier panning of the organization. Financial data should also be used in making financial
decisions and budgeting in the organization. The idea here is that organizations should be
informed of the importance of data and, by that, pay attention.
With data being collected, another yet important step is data cleaning and preparations. Data
cleaning is meant to ensure that the right insights are derived from the data being used. With
cleaning and preparation, the idea is to only take a percentage of the collected data which is
seen as more accurate and informative. With this in place, the organization should also
choose an easy-to-use and efficient analytics tool like Cognos which ensures that almost
every employee can use or at least interpret the results from the analytics given its use in a
healthcare organization. With data analytics, the organization should also gather a team of
experts in the field who not only know how to use several analytical tools but also how to
collect, clean, and analyze data.
