Key points from article :

Advocate Health Care, a twelve-hospital health system based in Illinois, wanted to reduce unplanned readmissions which it considered a failure in transitions of care. Wanting to identify patients at highest risk for readmissions whilst still in the hospital Advocate Health Care implemented data-driven accountable care.

Major challenge was interoperability of a mix of EHR technologies used across its sites which needed to be collated to enable big data analytics of clinical data. Now their predictive analytics model for readmissions is updated every two hours during the patient’s stay.
