How Healthcare Visualizations Can Improve Organizational Buy-In

from Health Catalyst

Data visualizations in many forms can be incredibly valuable in helping health center staff and leadership move from a passive understanding of the data to active support of health IT enabled, data driven quality improvement approaches. While introducing visualizations can create immediate value and understanding, ensuring that their full value is realized requires that stakeholders be fully engaged and understand how visualizations (such as dashboards) can support decision making.

Health Catalyst has an excellent piece about How Healthcare Visualizations Can Improve Organizational Buy-In in which they propose a three part framework: 

  • Teach: Use Group Settings to Build the Foundation for Engaged, Cross-functional Healthcare Teams
  • Show: Share Healthcare Visualizations with Clinicians and Healthcare Administrators and Have Them Share Processes
  • Involve: Answer the Team’s Questions
