Provincial Specialist Hospital No. 2 in Jastrzębie-Zdrój,
and also in Rzeszów
Large units dealing with comprehensive medical care, such as provincial or specialist hospitals, face a whole range of challenges regarding the proper collection, protection, processing and sharing of data.
Challenge/need
An important aspect is the fact that in many cases the hospital’s IT system as a whole consists of several independent subsystems, often from different suppliers.
In the analyzed case, the main need was to provide a data warehouse integrating the so-called white part (related to the treatment of patients) with the gray part (related to hospital management).
The white part included data collected in in-patient (patient hospitalization) and out-patient (specialist visits) healthcare systems. The gray part is, in turn, financial and accounting data, invoices and contracts, as well as warehouse management.
The main challenge faced by the data warehouse was to create models that would allow for the analysis of the profitability of individual medical procedures, departments and employees. It was necessary to include the analyzes in a time perspective and to take into account the conditions imposed by the public payer.
The data warehouse was also to serve as a source of statistical knowledge about the profiles of procedures, patients or the use of medical materials.
