CASE STUDY: RECLAIMING DATA DESTINY
Predictive Analytics to Power Value-Based, Community-Connected Care
Until recently, Ontario’s home care providers had limited access to the data they needed to demonstrate impact and improve service delivery. But with new regulatory shifts allowing organizations like SE Health and Humber River Hospital to own and act on their data, a major transformation is underway. This session explores how predictive analytics and population data are being used to reduce avoidable hospital days (ALDs), optimize bundle-based care pathways, and shift home care from transactional tasks to whole-person journeys. Take back to your organization strategies to:
- Use service utilization data to demonstrate value and efficiency in community-based care
- Align home and hospital care through collaborative data models that reduce duplication and hospital strain
- Calculate and communicate ALD days saved in financial and patient care terms
- Leverage real-time predictive analytics to better serve complex patients, such as those with congestive heart failure
- Build sustainable, less transactional models of care through direct hospital partnerships
Take charge of your data destiny and harness integrated analytics to drive shared outcomes across the continuum of care.
