No significant wins!
BI Maturity Level 1 – Data Sources
Data Sources:• Application-based data• Desktop databases (e.g., Access, FoxPro)• Manual abstraction of documents• External sources (e.g., CMS, payers)• Reports from transactional systems• Spreadsheets (e.g., Excel, Visi-Calc)
11
Level 1 – Unawareness
Common Tools:• Microsoft Excel• Microsoft Access• Crystal reports (basic)• Some OTS applications
BI Maturity Level 1 – Example
12
Level 1 – UnawarenessA small community hospital in rural Ohio decided to expand its medical imaging services offerings beyond the limited radius of the town they were serving at the moment.
They had acquired a couple of high-tech Computer Aided Detection (CAD) products for lung cancer and mammography and they were certain that they would be able to provide better care to their at-risk patients and provide their radiologists with tools that would allow to increase their bandwidth thus resulting in more diagnostic readings.
But they ran into some challenges. The radiologists were complaining that they wouldn’t be able to handle more cases without getting tired and that would increase patient safety risks.
The people in charge of delivering the imaging services option didn’t have the data to challenge or confirm the radiologists assertions.
The IT department was tasked to assist them in gathering the data. The IT team leveraged the RIS in order to obtain the scheduling information and the PACS to extract the study information and reconcile these with the radiologists claims.
Once the management team had the data they were then able to work in harmony with the radiologists’ team and come up with creative solutions to the problems. They were able to increase their offerings and they were also able to identify that they would need one more radiologist in order to avoid over-working the existing ones.
Tools Used:• Microsoft Excel• Microsoft Access• Crystal reports (basic)• Some OTS applications to
extract data from the RIS and the PACS
BI Maturity Level 2 – Some Lacks, Some Uses
13
Some Lacks:• Accessibility to data across departments• Availability of interdepartmental data• Coherent and Structured data• Data Governance and Stewardship• Enterprise –scale repositories• Common vocabularies across domains• Quality and trust beyond a department• Sponsorship
Level 2 – Tactical
Some Uses:• Promoted by IT Executives and end
users• Fairly interested audience• Typically implemented in the
financial or operational departments
• Some departmental formality• Some departmental metrics• Some departmental reporting
Wins:• Accessibility to data within a department• Some reporting tools• Some visualization tools
Big Win:BI is acknowledged as crucial for the enterprise
BI Maturity Level 2 – Data Sources
Data Sources:
• Desktop databases (e.g., Access, FoxPro)• Manual abstraction of documents• Report Generators (e.g., Crystal reports)• Reports from transactional systems • Source Systems (e.g., MEDITECH, Eclipsys, Epic)• Spreadsheets (e.g., Excel, Multiplan)• SQL Databases (e.g., SQL Server, MySQL)• Stove-piped applications data
14
Level 2 – Tactical
Common Tools:• Microsoft Excel• Microsoft Access• SQL Server Reporting
Services• SQL Server Integration
Services• Proprietary BI (e.g., Eclipsys)
BI Maturity Level 2 – Example
15
Level 2 – TacticalA large healthcare enterprise in the United States, has been growing organically and through acquisitions. The rate of growth is so fast that it is nearly impossible to merge processes together.
They have to deal with myriad EHRs and many other types of systems per facility. The average number of applications per facility is over 200, this number is typical across the industry.
Due to the pressure of the external forces that are transforming healthcare and in the best interest to stay ahead of the pack they have seriously considered Business Intelligence as the move forward strategy.
Their overwhelming size does not allow them to implement Health BI in a “Big-bang” style so they have decided to approach the endeavor tactically with the vision of reaching Level 4 within 5 – 7 years.
They are currently using some well-known tools to achieve this. They still haven’t laid out the foundation but they are able to report analytics at the finance and quality departments and for certain facilities and ancillaries.
The goals they seek to accomplish in the immediate future are the formation of a Data Governance structure. The next steps are the design and architecture of an Operational Data Store/Atomic Data Store that will be the first steps towards a solid Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) layer and a Trusted Data Layer (TDL).
Tools Used:• Industry standard SQL
Databases• SQL Server Integration
Services (SSIS)• SAP – Business objects• Eclipsys Clinical Analytics

BI Maturity Level 3 – Case Study
18
Level 3 - FocusedTexas Children's Hospital is an internationally recognized full-care pediatric hospital located in the Texas Medical Center in Houston. One of the largest pediatric hospitals in the United States, Texas Children's Hospital (TCH) is dedicated to providing the finest possible pediatric patient care, education and research.
Nurse researchers, cardiology physicians and researchers created spreadsheets to manage their day-to-day activities – a practice which resulted in more than 450 spreadsheets along with various other disparate sources. These clinicians were responsible for providing outcomes and research reports for consumption by the medical and surgical groups that often used different approaches to data management. The complexity of this data management infrastructure began to manifest into several issues including loss of productivity, low quality of data, increased costs and inefficient use of time.
Perficient created a data warehousing solution using Microsoft SQL Server as a backend with web/Windows-based data collection tools. This data was collected, extracted and transformed using complex workflows to produce a single system of record using SQL Server Integration Services, SQL Server, .NET and Microsoft Office suite.
This baseline system quickly processes 100,000 rows of data from multiple systems resulting in a business benefit of cost avoidance hours and new visibility to patient outcomes and research data by providing the users with a trusted single source for data needs.

Level 4 - Strategic
Tools Used:• Microsoft SQL Server• SQL Server Integration
Services (SSIS)• SQL Server Reporting
Services• Microsoft Amalga• SharePoint 2010• PowerPivot
Another Children's Hospital in Texas made the strategic decision to connect it’s Emergency Department with it’s community provider network to improve it’s delivery of services and thus save patient lives by having the right information at the right time, and near real time, at the point of care.
In order to achieve this they had to aggregate the data of their patients into a common repository supported by Microsoft Amalga which acted as an ODS/ADS. Data that was originated at the community physician office was sent to the ODS via CCD documents that were also aggregated and atomized in the ADS.
The use case would allow the emergency physicians to immediately view all the clinical relevant information of the patient.

BI Maturity Level 5 – Example
24
Level 5 - PervasiveAchieving level 5 is not an easy task. Although some payers have been able to initiate level 5 maturity most healthcare provider organizations fall below this level.
Blue Cross / Blue Shield of Kansas City was able to create an enterprise business intelligence strategy and a data governance model in order to integrate 20 major mission critical source systems in order to better serve their member patients.
They decided that information had to be enterprise-wide accessible, reliable and accurate. Their information was trapped in silos. They then created the Data Integrated Health Management Platform.
They were able to bring in outsourced disease management applications and helping them save millions of dollars a year.
With their Enterprise Data Warehouse they were also able to deploy a self-service business intelligence reporting application to large employer group customers and brokers with which they could access and perform their own online analytics. Data was exposed to almost 5000 physician offices.
Other noteworthy organizations that have achieved high-levels of maturity are:
• Kaiser Permanente• Mayo Clinic• Healthcare Partners
