1. Analytics solutions should drive tangible outcomes for hospitals

A top priority for healthcare organizations selecting an analytics solution is finding one that goes beyond just aggregating data to actually driving measurable outcomes. This clear measurement enables staff to make better-informed decisions tied directly to organizational goals. When evaluating analytics platforms, ensuring the vendor can deliver digestible metrics mapped to a hospital’s specific desired outcomes is essential. Whether it’s reducing hospital-acquired infections, improving medication adherence, or lowering readmission rates, an analytics solution should make it easy to monitor critical metrics and react appropriately.

Healthcare organizations cannot afford analytics solutions that produce clunky reports. The focus must be identifying partners that turn complex data into insightful, actionable metrics that tangibly move the needle on priorities. The KLAS report shows that Dimensional Insight stands out with top scores for producing easy-to-use metrics that help drive outcomes.

2. To lead with data, hospitals need a partner, not just a product

Another key pillar for data success is the culture and relationship a vendor can provide to its customers. A foundational component lies in a vendor’s ability to provide proactive, personalized customer support. Dimensional Insight received top scores for providing proactive service.
