Improves Imaging Services for Veterans and Reduces Costs
HealthLevel, Inc., innovator of Foundations™, a business operations analytics platform for healthcare institutions, announces the successful deployment of its comprehensive enterprise analytics solution across the Veterans Health Administration’s VISN 8 network in Florida.
Foundations™ is an engagement and management solution that combines real-time clinical, financial, and operational data with historical information to enable radiology staff and leadership to discover ways to improve performance and reduce costs. The user-friendly analytics tool is designed to be intuitive to learn and easy to use, allowing everyone access to personalized actionable insights.
VISN 8 took the initiative to look beyond the typical EHR, PACS and enterprise data sources. Through Foundations™ they consolidated their medical imaging performance insights, comprehensive data governance and security, into a source-of-truth with analytics that align their administrative and clinical staff. All seven VISN 8 medical centers across Florida, as well as their associated imaging centers are implemented on one common Foundations™ platform.
This deployment enables clinical staff at each medical center and department to access insights that are specific to their role and facility, while empowering regional leadership to obtain a comprehensive view of that same data across the entire multi-facility organization. All parties are now in a strong position to develop and monitor new operating metrics and standards across the organization.
“VISN 8 leadership is proactively eliminating resource waste and saving hours of time every day from busywork, allowing them to focus more on patient-centric activities,” states Parag Paranjpe, CEO of HealthLevel. “We are proud to partner with a team that recognizes the high value of our Foundations™ business operations platform, putting actionable insights into the hands of those who can make a real impact on the healthcare services our veterans deserve.”
