HCA 821 - Healthcare Data Analytics
This course introduces important concepts related to data analytics in a health care setting. As more and more data are collected by health care organizations and professionals, health care leaders need to be competent in data analytics in order to better manage and use collected health care data to both optimize the quality of care and to improve business efficiencies. Students will not only explore the various sources of data, but will also perform data analysis, interpret the results, and create visual presentations of the results of analyzed data. Data quality and data management will serve as a framework for the use of health care data, for the creation of knowledge, for knowledge management, and for decision making.
