Part of an up to $200 million investment Deloitte Consulting is making in life sciences and healthcare analytics, the new ConvergeHEATLH by Deloitte aims to help providers use data to gain actionable organizational and industry insight.
"As a result of the shift towards value-based reimbursement and personalized healthcare, our clients are facing new challenges that fundamentally change the way they will operate," said Brett Davis, principal at Deloitte and general manager of ConvergeHEALTH, in a news release. "To survive and thrive in this new paradigm, new solutions are required that combine strategy and transformational services with data, content, analytics and insights along with new business and operating models."
Intermountain Healthcare in Salt Lake City is one of CovergeHEALTH's first clients. "Intermountain Healthcare understands 'best care' and how to achieve it on a consistent basis; higher quality means significant elimination of waste and significant reduction in the cost of care delivery," said Brent James, MD, chief quality officer of Intermountain Healthcare, in the news release. "Intermountain had the data. Deloitte had the consulting services and the distribution network to make that better care widely available."
