How does a French university hospital use analytics to comply with government regulations that encourage high-quality, cost-effective care?
SAS helped Nantes University Hospital Center:
- Use data visualization as part of a larger project to integrate financial affairs, human resources and medical information, and produce an in-house analysis of the costs per hospitalization.
- Assign resources during budget planning and more precisely monitor expense trends by bringing together all the data that the system provides.
- Enrich its data warehouse and open the data to managers, clinics and medical staff so they can explore data directly to help patients get better quickly at the most reasonable cost.
