Physician practices, payors, and health system leaders rely on key performance indicators (KPIs) to achieve their clinical, financial, and operational goals.
For care management programs, it’s key to monitor appropriate measures and trends because it helps providers maximize existing resources. Data metrics can also aid their decision-making to improve outcomes, enhance patient engagement, and lower overall costs.
ThoroughCare Analytics provides near real-time care management data to support insightful clinical analysis. Analytics cover five measurement areas, including:
- Strategic data
- Clinical data
- Engagement data
- Financial data
