SYSTEM FOR PREDICTIVELY COMPARING CLINICAL PRACTICE OPTIONS OF A MEDICAL FACILITY
A predictive analysis system (100) allows users to compare outcomes of alternative practice options. The system (100) enables users to compare outcomes for a particular practice environment. The system (100) generally includes an input module (102) for receiving queries entered via client devices (101), a processing platform (103) that receives information from various sources (106), and an output module (104). The processing platform (103) receives the query (103), accesses the sources (106) of information, and provides output information (104) responsive to the query. The sources (106) may include facility specific information, such as information regarding patient populations, statistical information, such as information from peer-reviewed studies, and regulatory information. Output module (104) provides a comparative and predictive analysis report of cost, volume of procedures, outcomes, such as mortality, morbidity, length of stay, and readmissions for use of an alternative technology, device or procedure compared to the current standard of practice.
