Providing hospitals with analytical resources to meet emerging needs

Our hospitals analyze trends using IHA data to ensure they offer the health care services most needed in their communities. For example, patient migration patterns can help identify access needs and pinpoint underserved communities. Hospitals also use our patient outcomes data for quality improvement projects to improve Hoosiers' overall health.

Helping hospitals inform the public in times of need

IHA member hospitals participate in statewide emergency preparedness programs to make sure they can effectively address emergencies affecting their communities. We work with our hospitals to stay up to date with state and federal reporting requirements, giving first responders vital information when they need it.

Finding ways to make health care more affordable

IHA data can help hospitals understand cost improvement opportunities, reduce wasteful practices, and identify potential health care coverages for Hoosiers to increase access to care. Our data also makes it possible to benchmark critical financial indicators against best-performing hospitals and identify areas for improvement.
