Make health care analytics your friend through this 2½-day series of interactive discussions and pragmatic exercises during the association’s Winter Institute in Florida.
When it comes to health care data and analytics, is there such a thing as too much information? It can certainly feel that way if it’s not properly harnessed and implemented. At its core, data is just as vital to the success of today’s technologically integrated health care systems as it is potentially confounding.
So what’s the best way for physician leaders to streamline that data — to convert it from an endless onslaught of information into an easily accessible and applied asset for improving patient care and safety, and supporting operations in the evolution of precision medicine and population health?
That’s the subject of the Informatics Medical Academy , a 2½-day series of interactive discussions and pragmatic exercises at the American Association for Physician Leadership’s Winter Institute in St. Petersburg, Florida, Jan. 25-27.
In addition to improving patient care, the value of the academy is the path it paves for building, organizing and empowering a team of provider informaticians to serve as liaisons between clinicians and information technology, and to lead informatics innovations.
The academy teaches physician leaders how to analyze and incorporate clinical and nonclinical sources for day-to-day patient care and operational activities. And with technology in perpetual evolution, the course explains how to lead multidisciplinary teams of health care and technical professionals to manage the inevitable disruption that comes with innovation and informatics-driven change.
