Tuesday, July 18; 12pm – 1pm CT
Hospitals and health systems are inundated with data but don’t always know how to make sense of it or use it. In this comprehensive training session, we’ll discuss the past, present, and future of data. Learn how to leverage state, national, and third party data, such as consumer digital behavior and claims data, to make the most of your existing clinical and financial data. Additionally, we will explore opportunities for strategic planning and marketing programs, as well as understand data usage rights.
Part 2: Using Longitudinal Patient Data to Broaden Your Strategic Plan
Speakers: Nick Fromell, Senior Product Manager, Optum | Nick Connors, Senior Strategist, Optum
Thursday, July 20; 12pm-1pm CTThe role of strategic planning has evolved from decision support to decision leadership. As the data needs of health systems expand, strategic planners will be asked by their leadership team to draw meaningful insights from a growing cache of market data. Strategic planners must make sure their market assessments do not simply report market conditions, but actively surface the best growth opportunities and identify the strongest response to emerging market disruptions. We will identify new approaches to modernizing market assessments and highlight new analyses for making them more actionable.

Once the strategic opportunities have been identified, there are strategies that can be identified using BI and GIS, such as micro-market opportunities, physician strategies, and FSED development. Once illustrating how BI & GIS tools can be utilized to visualize data and draw meaningful insights, we will build a narrative suitable for presentation to upper management or a Board of Directors for your strategic growth initiatives.
Part 2: Visualization and Storytelling
Speakers: Deb Bulger, Vice President of Strategic Partners, Syntellis Performance Solutions
Thursday, August 3; 12pm – 1pm CTIn this module we are concerned less about the “what” you find in the data and more about the “why.” This module is about how to conceptualize the meaning of the data and information, so you have relevant insights that resonate with your audiences. It is important to understand how the brain takes data and converts it into stories to make sense of it, enable it to be visualized, and allows it to be shared among others. Further, there are different types of story themes that are important to think about as you frame the data into a story. For health care strategists, the importance of this module is in how we build visualizations and stories out of the data and information; which themes might work best; how to visually communicate them throughout your organization.
