Vizient’s Clinician Decision Analytics, a cloud-based platform, enables the identification of variation across medications, labs and other orders by linking them to order sets (a standardized set of items used to treat patients), departments, specialties and clinicians, and it enables review of order set utilization and the monitoring of adjustments. Combined with Vizient clinical consulting services and used alongside the Vizient Clinical Data Base, which provides patient-level data in quality outcomes, it will help health systems to develop targeted intervention approaches to ensure sustainability of quality improvement initiatives.

“Vizient is a leader in analytics-enabled services, and we are excited to partner with them to enhance those services with real-time EHR analysis. Together, we can support health systems by removing complex barriers to retrieving insights from clinician decision making and other health care data,” said Marc Tobias, MD, Phrase CEO. “Our dashboards complement the Vizient Clinical Data Base, simplify the complex data analysis process, and will help health systems better understand the ‘why’ behind the quality improvement efforts within their organization.”
