East Jefferson General Hospital data warehouse uses scalable ETL from Pervasive

East Jefferson General Hospital in Metairie, Louisiana, was using a proprietary ETL tool provided by a medical clinical system but it was not meeting the growing needs of the complex and varied ETL processes necessary to optimize use of the data warehouse. Phoenix Health Systems selected the Pervasive integration solution primarily because it could scale for data variety and volume. The results reflect substantial improvements in both the integrity of information being delivered and the time to deliver financial data, from a three-day lag to information available on-demand.

 

Scalable ETL needed 

The hospital's IT group was reengineering the patient financial section of its data warehouse and needed dependable ETL that could scale to the hospital's growth. A proprietary ETL solution was being used, but it was incapable of meeting the demand for faster data as well as addressing complex and varied processes that were increasingly required.

Any data format handled

The scalability and simplicity of Pervasive Data Integrator offered the best value to East Jefferson General Hospital. Pervasive can handle any data format, from the main clinical management system and hosted financial system to other systems throughout the facility such as Surgery, Lab Orders, HR and others. End users have received many reporting options as a result.

Value-driven ETL benefits hospital's information integrity

Time and data quality have served to increase information integrity at East Jefferson General Hospital. With information integrity in place, operational personnel can make better decisions to resolve issues. Pervasive already has made an impact for the Revenue Cycle Division, for one.

Better efficiencies

Pervasive Data Integrator's value is seen in other ways. It allows IT personnel to quickly turn other interface projects, allowing better labor cost efficiencies.
