Microsoft (MSFT) and Dell (DELL) have announced this week that they will combine efforts to improve the state of analytics and business intelligence in Community Hospitals. The new services will be delivered by Dell as a hosted online service and will feature their cloud computing infrastructure and informatics, analytics and consulting services as well as Microsofts health intelligence platform, Microsoft Amalga.
The service will initially feature in four hospitals, Lawrence Hospital Center, Northern Westchester Hospital, Phelps Memorial Hospital Center and White Plains Hospital, with the potential of expanding further with the help of the Stellaris Health Network.
Speaking on behalf of Microsoft Health Solutions Group, general manager of business development Nate McLemore, says "Amalga is able to deliver data in a variety of different ways. Often, business intelligence is a static snapshot of a period of time, so what we''re able to do is deliver data in near, real time, and bring about care improvement and performance management […] We will begin to deliver data and reports at the point of care, and see in near, real time what''s occurring at the health network."
