A 360 Approach to Business Intelligence

Time: 12:00pm ET
Hosted by: Health Data Management
Duration: 1 hour
Sponsor: Ormed Information Systems Ltd.

How one hospital turns data into decisions

You know it's there somewhere... the information you need now. You could spend hours looking for it or wait days waiting for someone else to find it for you. Or, you could point-and-click and have bona fide business intelligence at your fingertips in seconds.

Join St. Joseph's General Hospital and Ormed Information Systems for an informative demonstration of how one hospital is uniting financial and statistical data from multiple sources to create a single business intelligence report, without information overload.

"Reports are just tools," says Katja Waldman, Director of Finance, St. Joseph's General Hospital. "Really useful reports drive better decision-making because they let you see the big picture and drill-down into the details in real-time."

The St. Joseph's team will explain why they needed a powerful decision support tool and how they use Ormed Discovery EIS (Executive Information System) to keep every manager informed of budget, costs, performance, trends, and variances, and help everyone make better decisions faster.

Discussion Topics:
- Database linkages
- Overview of the Ormed Discovery EIS reporting tool
- Significance of the Discovery Trend Report
- Demonstration of the Discovery Trend Report
- Q&A
