How the Right Data Analytics Will Improve Your Health System’s Bottom Line and Your Patients’ Choices
Russ Cobb, President and GM of Blackbaud Healthcare Solutions, providing unparalleled data analytics and solutions for healthcare systems such as hospitals and their foundations joins eHealth Radio and the Health Care and News Channels.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels & guest Russ Cobb discuss the following:
- We seem to be in a constant state of change in the healthcare industry and that change is typically focused on how individuals will access and receive healthcare. Can you talk about how the interaction with consumers has changed for healthcare providers?
- What are the most important factors when it comes to understanding consumers, patients and their needs?
- It seems as though consumer choice and an enhanced understanding of the population are the two big factors for healthcare administrators to understand. Can you explain how new technology is impacting the industry in these two areas?
- While patient care is a very hyper- individualized experience, often healthcare marketing is anything but. Can you talk about how healthcare organizations can take a more personalized approach to their outreach efforts and what benefit this shift has for patients?
- Should hospital administrators use analytics for any other departments?
