Information Builders, a vendor of business intelligence information systems, has introduced a performance management application for health care provider and payer organizations.

The WebFOCUS Performance Management Framework includes pre-built templates and scorecards for collecting and assessing financial, clinical, administrative and operational measures, according to the New York-based vendor.

Modules cover finance, cost of care and reimbursement analysis; utilization and strategic planning; physician profiling; quality improvement; case management; inpatient reporting; outcomes; demographics; and claims analysis.
