Wockhardt Hospitals choose Qlik

Qlik has announced that Wockhardt Hospitals  has selected their proven, market-leading data discovery solution, to gain better data insights and improve business performance while reducing operational costs.

In India, Wockhardt Ltd provides tertiary care, superspecialty healthcare networks offering healthcare services. They operate nine hospitals in India with a total staff strength of over 2,500+ employees.

The project was won by Qlik in a competitive bid where the company outclassed their competition with a superior Proof of Concept (PoC) set up by Qlik’s expertise partner, Exponentia DataLabs.

“At Wockhardt, we believe that implementation and utilization of modern and agile Business Intelligence (BI) and analytics will result in better decision-making across all the areas of our organization,” said Zahabiya Khorakiwala, Managing Director, Wockhardt Hospitals. “We explored different solutions in the market but were convinced that Qlik delivered the best outcomes – a platform that provided transparency, was easy to use, agile and scalable.”

The data for the project came from disparate sources such as an existing Hospital Information System (HIS), an SAP financial module and a huge volume of excel spreadsheets. Subsequently, the output was used to generate strategic insights and analysis for the management, to evaluate revenue analysis and cost optimization measures, MIS for the finance team, pricing analysis and cost audits for related finance functions.

Analytics in healthcare is at a nascent stage in India and organizations can drive tangible benefits by optimizing costs across supply chains, identifying growth avenues and driving process efficiencies to deliver more affordable and personalized experience for patients. Ramendra Shukla, Chief Operating Officer, Exponentia DataLabs, said, “Wockhardt hospitals is a pioneering analytics adoption and setting example for the healthcare sector.”
