St.James’s
Hospital deploy Business Intelligence Solution
Efficiency
in the Health Services
The
recent announcement of the new Health Strategy
in Ireland has brought even more attention to
the subject of making the Health Services more
efficient.
The complex structure of the health services, the increased demand
for better health, the pressure on existing resources
and the pace of technological change within this
sector makes the objective of greater efficiencies
a massive challenge. For clinicians, management
and other key personnel to adequately meet this
challenge they need good information at their
fingertips.
Some Health Care organisations are meeting this
challenge head on by implementing Business Intelligence
solutions. These solutions are based on state
of the art software technologies, implemented
by specialists who understand information technology
and the health services. These solutions will
integrate easily with existing applications and
databases.
St.James's Hospital in Dublin, the largest teaching Hospital in the
Republic of Ireland, has recently deployed such
a solution, DI-Atlantis from MANITeX.
The initial project has covered two main areas
of the Hospital's management information requirements:
1) Central management information and statistics
function, and 2) The Emergency Department.
