Financial Analytics
The healthcare industry is changing. The changes are driven by industry trends that include moving to the cloud, growth through consolidation, cost, and reduction initiatives, evolving regulatory requirements, and shift to consumer-driven healthcare. As we progress more in this rapid pacing universe, the financial information amidst rapid growth and increasing complexity becomes a major KPI. One of the keys to unlocking the success has been the ability to monitor key performance indicators (KPIs).
Here we will see how industry trends are calling for more insight and transparency into a healthcare company’s financials, and how VNB Health’s Financial Dashboard fits into all this. This is especially important with multi-entity/multi-location environments, which require access to data from any entity, at any time, from anywhere.
The dashboard contains the following reports:

- Trace referral patterns

- Accelerate their go-to-market strategy
It can be difficult to do all this without fully understanding medical claims data. In this dashboard, we’ll help you understand how claims data and patient health records are interrelated. The dashboard helps you understand the Current Year data [Claims, Settled Claims & Settled Claims Ratio]. Also, a visual representation of Claims settled by Insurers, by Locations and the pending ones from both patient & Insurer parties, helps us draw inference on the better equipped Insurance companies, and which side is the patient leaning to.
The in-depth base data here has the amalgamated data pertaining to claims with specifications such as the diagnosis, the claim type submitted and the age range to which the patient belongs. It also gives a picture of the rendered service, the patient’s name and the insurer they followed up with. These data are super critical when we talk about decision making data.
