Benchmark against others

ACHSI can benchmark your hospital against others, providing analytics and the ability to drill-down comparisons and uncover insights for quality improvement across a range of clinical specialities.

Our data analytics engine

Using Leveraging Sisense as our data analytics engine, we can provide real time comparisons and deliver benchmarking across a larger number of selectable variables.

Richer ways to stratify data

Our large number of selectable variables include clinical speciality, bed number, ownership, rurality, discharge rates, individual speciality defined groupings and many more.

Trusted performance indicator

The CIP allows you to view the data at a high level to determine your hospital’s overall performance, and then navigate deeper to determine potential causes of performance differences.

ACHS Clinical Indicator Report (ACIR)

Every year, ACHS releases this report, which examines data sourced from a broad range of clinical specialty areas in healthcare. It summarises the clinical indicator data that is submitted to the CIP for the past eight years, and highlights significant trends and variations in the data over time. It includes commentary from collaborating specialist colleges, associations, societies and other clinical organisations, which provides context for the trends and variations that are observed in the data.

I believe voluntary and cautious use of clinical indicators can help drive continuous healthcare improvement. Their wise use of statistics in the clinical indicator program has helped set up a global platform for healthy comparisons of different healthcare data with peers. I support ACHSI Clinical Indicator Program!
