Brentwood, Tennessee-based LifePoint Health has entered a new collaboration with Health Catalyst and will use its analytics technologies to help bolster care quality, lower costs and improve population health management.

WHY IT MATTERS
LifePoint Health will integrate Health Catalyst's data operating system and analytics tools to gather performance metrics and drive improvements in healthcare quality, reporting, and operational and financial decision-making.

By discovering and sharing clinical data, the partnership will help reduce variation in clinical outcomes. Health Catalyst's tools dovetail with LifePoint's national quality and facility recognition program goals to measurably improve patient care, safety and satisfaction as well as improve access and lower costs, according to the company.

In addition to the cloud-based data platform, LifePoint will use Health Catalyst's analyzer, insights, AI, patient safety monitoring and data entry applications. The suite of tools can help increase organizational speed and interoperability, according to Health Catalyst.

THE LARGER TREND

While healthcare organizations are just beginning to scratch the surface of using data to drive improvements, according to Health Catalyst President Patrick Nelli, the company's acquisitions enable them to customize software and services around core care systems.

One of them was the company's purchase earlier this year of KPI Ninja, whose event-driven data processing capabilities complement Health Catalyst's own platform, enabling customers to build new services and operational tools around their core care systems.

LifePoint, meanwhile, has been making acquisitions of its own, such as its June 2021 addition of specialty hospital company Kindred Healthcare, with an eye toward a delivery network that taps into Kindred's specialty hospital and rehabilitative expertise and its behavioral health platform.

ON THE RECORD
"The Health Catalyst DOS platform, along with our technology product suites and applications, and improvement expertise, will best position LifePoint Health to achieve, sustain and scale the highest standards of care across its network," Health Catalyst CEO Dan Burton said in a statement this week.
