HCA Healthcare, one of the leading providers of care in 20 states and in the United Kingdom, has smartly been investing to improve the quality of the health data they collect. This investment made it possible to deploy an innovative sepsis detection project that has enhanced patient safety across the entire organization. That same project also had an unintended beneficial impact – it helped HCA facilities react faster during hurricanes and other emergencies.

Healthcare IT Today sat down with Dr. Jim Jirjis, Chief Health Information Officer at HCA to discuss the value of data quality in healthcare and find out more about the link between their sepsis project and better emergency preparedness.
