 Empower People| In healthcare, answering a single question can require compilation and analysis of data from many different systems. A request can take weeks, and if a requestor has follow-up questions, the process must be generated again with each new data element. Months later, questions may remain unanswered. And when the frustration of finding answers grows, people may stop asking questions altogether—leading to lost opportunities for performance improvement. |

Amalga UIS empowers healthcare workers to answer questions that support both real-time and continuous improvement efforts. With Microsoft Amalga Intelligence System 2009 (UIS), workers can: |
| Get data in real time from across the enterprise, rather than relying on batch pulls of historical data. See any view of data, sort or filter by any criteria or data element—rather than just seeing the patient-centric views of data provided by most healthcare IT systems. Create new customized views of data without the intervention of IT or the need for an analyst. It is a simple process of selecting and adding field names from a list. Work with data easily, using a simple, user-friendly interface. The familiar look and feel of Amalga UIS enables anyone who is familiar with Microsoft Office applications to begin exploring data with minimal training.
