How can hospitals link disparate information to see an entire episode of care and which potential protocols of care are better than others?

Hospitals need to invest in process intelligence tools and human processes that focus on supporting relevant information and actionable, real-time decision-making, both for their patients and their personnel.

The NHS is using Process Master to effectively help sift, sort, integrate, prioritize and make sense of the care pathway and business process data to turn it into real-time, usable information.

Here are some example maps of processes HERE http://www.demoprocessmaster.com/main.html
