According to the Oakland, Calif.-based company, data are pulled from disparate systems to give a view across the cardiovascular service line. Lumedx also claims that its Apollo analytics dashboard could help:
  • Uncover causes of data trends;
  • Track key performance indicators (KPIs), core measures;
  • Monitor internal quality initiatives;
  • Compare outcomes across multi-site facilities;
  • Establish evidence-based best practices; and
  • Leverage Lumedx registry and data integration applications.
