Although healthcare is improving, many problems remain: longer wait times, shorter patient time with doctors, and redundant processes for each point of contact, to name but a few. Clinicians have become data clerks—their notes inadequately captured and communicated within the healthcare ecosystem. Healthcare data is overwhelming practitioners to such a degree that they are unable to fully review, correctly diagnose, and provide treatment for ailments in a timely manner. Innovative analytical technologies addressing such problems in healthcare are readily available, yet they are often not implemented or considered viable solutions in many instances. \u003ci\u003eTransforming Healthcare Analytics: The Quest for Healthy Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003e explains how healthcare professionals can transform their industry by integrating technology with people and process to gain operational and strategic intelligence.

Lewis and Tho H. Nguyen offer real-world cases of healthcare problems addressed by insight-driven decisions while emphasizing the importance of people, process, and technology. The authors first highlight critical analytical and business skills, the need to recruit, train, and organize analytic talent, ways to change sponsorship culture, and the pressing issues that could be solved with current and emerging technologies. Subsequent chapters cover topics including the three core elements of process, the business problem of healthcare, how analytics can improve decision-making, process change within an organization, and the need for creating a repeatable, sustainable playbook based on data-driven insights. A complete overview of available technology is followed by a practical, actionable framework for developing a comprehensive analytics strategy.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImproving an organization through data analytics requires assembling cross-functional teams, providing clear leadership, fostering analytic talent throughout organizations, and applying available technologies effectively and efficiently.
