Please find under a summary covering project details and feedback. The innate facts are kept as they are, private information is amended.
Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
At the time, I was the senior accomplishment advancement project director at a children',s healthcare structure.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Pinnacle Solutions?
We needed to educe a prophesyive standard for appointment no-shows at three of our specialty clinics that would empower us to overbook effectively, which would also engender more income and allow us to see more patients who have more pressing needs.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were Pinnacle Solutions responsible for?
Pinnacle educeed prophesyive standards for us, as well as a dashboard for use by upper treatment and staff to be able to approach the results fastly. This empowers the staff to overbook appointments based on which patients have a higher chance of not showing up. We can also check to make sure the prophesyive standarding is congruous and careful. We work with other vendors on pulling and processing the data from Epic to automatically engender daily reports.
The data was prepared using Enterprise Guide. Once the standards were completed and validated, they were exported to Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), which is used to prophesy no-show appointments.
Was there a dedicated team?
Since we already have a project director from our team and from our SAS provider, we didn',t demand one from Pinnacle',s team. Pinnacle granted a couple data scientists who worked on educeing the standards for us.
How did you come to work with Pinnacle Solutions?
I was tasked to investigation the application we',d want to purchase that would allow us to educe prophesyive standards in-house. After finding Pinnacle, I got our treatment to suit on moving advanced with them. They submitted an application higher to others we',d accepted.
What are you approach expents (if diclosed)?
We invested almost $100,000 in this specific project.
What is the terminal result of working with Pinnacle Solutions?
We worked unitedly from September 2016 to December 2017. From what I apprehend, Pinnacle is quiet working with the organisation to swell their prophesyive standarding capabilities to other clinics as well.
Results achieved
Are there any measureable or plum results?
We were very lucky with their work. Our inner statistician was impressed by the standards they granted. Without Pinnacle',s help, it would',ve taken us much longer to create the initial standards. Their role was instrumental in the project',s achievement. We',ve been able to reap the benefits of their work from a financial standpoint.
How did Pinnacle Solutions accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They granted weekly status updates on the project and were very answering through phone and email. Whenever we ran into challenges, they were pellucid and worked fastly through them.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with Pinnacle Solutions?
We',ve been very impressed by the outcomes of the prophesyive standarding they created. They were able to fastly apprehend our needs from a healthcare activity standpoint and were proactive throughout the process. They',ll be writing a paper almost the big work they',ve done for us on this project that will be presented at the next SAS Global Conference.
What aspects of their work would you like to get improved?
No.
