LONDON--()--Quantzig, a leading analytics advisory firm that delivers customized analytics solutions, has announced the completion of their article on the best ways to reduce healthcare costs by effectively implementing healthcare data analytics.

Despite operating in a sector that has immense growth opportunities, healthcare organizations have to combat challenges such as regulatory and policy changes, medicinal and technological advancements, rising costs, staff, and trained employees, maintain efficient operations and services, and support other healthcare initiatives. They have to implement technologies in their organizations that can keep their spending and healthcare costs in pace with the rate of inflation.

Healthcare costs in the United States are disproportionately high when compared to any other developed nation. Many factors contribute to the rising healthcare costs, such as expensive new diagnostic tests and treatments, administrative costs, malpractice and drug costs. Also, co-pays and deductibles have become expensive and employers are burdened to take a bigger cut of their employees’ wages to pay for insurance premiums. Such factors have forced the government to play a stronger role in negotiating prices for healthcare and compelled healthcare organizations to find alternative methods to combat rising healthcare costs before they become a barrier to the growth of the overall healthcare business.

Rising healthcare costs are increasing insurance premiums for patients but not lowering out-of-pocket costs for them. This can act as a major growth barrier for US healthcare service providers. Get in touch with our experts and know how healthcare data analytics can help you achieve cost-savings.
