Brentwood, Tenn.-based HealthTrust Purchasing Group has acquired certain assets of Cardiac Data Solutions, an analytic platform that helps healthcare leaders improve clinical and financial outcomes, according to a news release.
The acquired CDS operations will enhance HealthTrust's clinical data analytics, benchmarking, consultation service, evidence-based best practice tools and implementation support tools.
"Increasingly, providers are requesting help in the area of clinical data analysis and benchmarking as they address all dimensions of cost management," said HealthTrust CEO Ed Jones in the news release. "CDS uses clinical and operational data to allow physicians and hospital leaders to make more informed decisions to improve clinical and financial outcomes.
