Data Warehouse Reporting

The increased use of electronic applications has exponentially increased the volume of data at Weill Cornell Medical College (WCMC). This data must be transformed to usable and relevant information that the WCMC community can rely on to make critical decisions that affect their respective group's daily operation, performance, and efficiency.

The Physician Organization Information Services (POIS) Data Warehousing and Reporting group, using Business Intelligence and expertise in technical reporting principles, is committed to assisting the WCMC community in the development and support of reporting needs. Generated reports are consolidated from a variety of clinical, billing, and administrative sources, such as EpicCare and GE Centricity Business (GE CB), to provide data relationships that were previously unavailable. These reports provide departments or groups a comprehensive view of their data and enable better decision making, which translates into:

  • Improved patient care
  • Increase physician productivity
  • Increased revenue
  • Cost reduction
  • Time savings
  • Reduced open encounters
  • Increase charge collections
  • Increase accounts receivable collection rates
  • Decrease rejections
  • Focused EMR alerts
  • Assist researchers target and determine their test criteria
  • Adherence to regulatory compliance
  • Allows our stakeholders to better understand our organization
  • Develop process efficiency through a better understanding our patients
