January 29, 2014:  “Realizing the Vision and Value of Contextual BI for the Masses” by Dr. Dennis Schmuland, Chief health strategy officer, U.S. Health and Life Sciences, Microsoft

Microsoft In Health Blog:  “Realizing the Vision and Value of Contextual BI for the Masses” by Dr. Dennis Schmuland, Chief health strategy officer, U.S. Health and Life Sciences, Microsoft 

From Michael Dulin, MD, PhD, Chief Clinical Officer for Analytics and Outcomes Research for Carolinas HealthCare System, “Identifying the patients at risk for unplanned 30-day readmissions is the easy part. What’s difficult is providing precise and actionable information—at the point–of-care while the patient is still in the hospital—I believe that this step is a key component of reducing readmission risk. Our predictive model is providing the needed actionable information that will sustain and enhance our performance in readmission metrics.

Predixion shared this same vision with us. Predixion focuses on the last mile of analytics –delivering the predictive analytics to the care teams that need to act upon them. The company offered an easy-to-deploy, self-service predictive analytics solution that integrates with a majority of business intelligence platforms, business applications and clinical systems.”
