New HIMSS Analytics Essentials Brief Shows Significant Growth Potential In Clinical & Business Intelligence Solution Market

Burlington, VT (May 26, 2016) - HIMSS Analytics recently released its 2016 Essentials Brief: Clinical & Business Intelligence (C&BI) Study, a snapshot on the U.S. hospital analytics market. Essential Briefs are in-depth market research studies focused on identifying salient topics in the healthcare IT space that highlight mind share, market share and market opportunity of specific healthcare software technologies.

As the emphasis of healthcare changes from volume to value-based care, the use of analytical solutions will be necessary to support clinical, financial and operational decision making. However, market adoption has been modest to date and plans to make future investments in clinical and business intelligence solutions are uncertain.

The 2016 Essentials Brief: Clinical & Business Intelligence Study offers insight from 155 hospital executives, clinical, financial and operational department heads and IT personnel on their current C&BI usage as well as future plans for C&BI solution adoption. Comparative insights are also provided from HIMSS Analytics LOGIC™, the most comprehensive and intuitive global market intelligence tool in healthcare IT.

“It is not surprising to see moderate adoption levels of clinical and business solutions, or minimal investment plans as organizations have been focused on other clinical areas,” says HIMSS Analytics Director of Research, Brendan FitzGerald. “However, with the shift to value-based care and the potential impact of predictive and prescriptive analytics on patient care, growth in this solution category should increase significantly in the next three to five years.”

Highlights of the 2016 study include:

Current and future adoption of clinical and business intelligence solutions Vendor market share, mind share and market opportunity in the clinical and business intelligence solution category Study respondents currently with a clinical and business intelligence solution revealed limited tactical or inconsistent/uncoordinated efforts toward data governance within their organization

More study respondents with a C&BI solution utilize embedded tools within their EHR/HIS versus a best-of-breed or self-developed solution for their analytical needs

Based upon the HIMSS Analytics Adoption Model for Analytics Maturity (AMAM), respondents self-qualified as having a relatively low level of organizational analytics maturity

Uncertainty around plans to purchase a C&BI solution remains high as organizations rely upon current tools to make clinical and business decisions and focus on upgrading other clinical areas.
