Abstract
Location Intelligence empowers analytical capabilities for Italian Healthcare


Iconsulting Location Intelligence solution for Healthcare enables analysis from a regional geographic point of view down to a detailed level. It shows what happens inside Health Boards, Districts and Local Health Authorities both public hospitals and private healthcare providers.
Regione Emilia-Romagna is ranked as one of the most efficient organizations among Italian regions for healthcare and manages more than 60 millions recoveries each year. Regione Emilia-Romagna healthcare solution uses KPIs to analyse and measure patient safety and quality of care (number of hospital discharges, number of health services, number of medication errors, bed occupancy, etc.). It evaluates the healthcare service level by comparing geographic coverage to demographic distribution. In consideration of budget cut policies, the goal is to achieve higher standards of care and better medical outcomes.
A centralized Geo-Data Warehouse is the core of the infrastructure: it integrates both business and geographic data with external data like Open Data (demographics, geographic borders, etc.) and represents an essential component managed as Big Data. The presence of a Geo-Data Warehouse certificates the outcomes as the single version of truth of the entire data assets of the organization.
Iconsulting Healthcare framework highlights which area is making the most of public investment, where patients are from or what are the excellences in managing specific specialties. Through a powerful browser-based user interface or mobile devices, users may analyse their dimensions of interest (patients, infrastructures, hospital discharges, health services, first aid, etc.). It is possible to interact with standard alphanumerical views (tables and charts) and at the same time with the cartographic representations of desired phenomena. Iconsulting Location Intelligence framework extends the power of Business Intelligence (BI) tools with Geographical Information Systems (GIS). This platform also enables What-If Analysis to provide an automated tool for planning health services. Users can simulate future scenarios by removing or repositioning existing structures, divisions or services, which are immediately represented onto a map showing the impact of these actions for citizens and Local Health Authorities.
