COVID-19 and Data Analytics: A Real-Time “Burning Platform” Use Case
The entire realm of data analytics had already become extremely important for the leaders of patient care organizations, as the leaders of hospitals, medical groups, and health systems have been leveraging data to help their organizations shift into success under value-based contracts.

And in many cases, they are leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning tools to do it more effectively. The moment for data analytics has never been more immediate than it is now.
