Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has launched Provider Performance Insight, business intelligence (BI) suite built on SAP BusinessObjects software for hospitals and other healthcare providers.
According to TCS, the new BI framework provides a snapshot of patient care delivery activities, evaluates performance of patient service, tracks and trends staffing ratios over multiple periods and also has the ability to compare revenue across peer organisations and departments.
TCS claims that its new dashboard simplifies projects, reduces cost and shortens time to value related to both hospital administration and patient care.
The dashboard has been developed using TCS’ hBIDS, a healthcare analytics framework and built on the SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius software.
Debashis Ghosh, head of Life Sciences and Healthcare at TCS, said: The escalating cost of healthcare makes it imperative for all healthcare providers to evaluate efficiencies in every aspect of their business. Both patient care and operational effectiveness need to be evaluated, improved and tracked on an ongoing basis and this will be enabled by our solution.
John Papandrea, senior vice president and global healthcare sector head at SAP, said: SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius is an intuitive and robust tool set with rich analytic capabilities, making it an ideal solution for healthcare providers to enhance visibility into their patient care and business operations.
