It can also improve response time and overall efficiency. This is particularly true in health care, where analyzing patient discharges, real-time clinical transactions and purchasing data can provide insights that improve patient care and reduce costs. The challenge is aggregating the data from multiple sources, analyzing it and then getting the results into the right hands \u2014 quickly.<\/p>\n<p>The Premier Healthcare Alliance\u2019s goal is to improve the health of all communities through their people, data and their ability to connect health care organizations across the United States. The stats are impressive:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Premier currently connects 2,700 hospitals and 90,000 health providers through its database.<\/li>\n<li>Premier manages the data for 1 in every 4 discharges nationwide with 2.5 million real-time clinical transactions daily.<\/li>\n<li>Premier also manages nearly $43 billion in annual purchasing data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our panel of experts will
