Welcome Business Intelligence Newsletter Subscribers
In the first article, Connecting the Extended Corporate Information Factory to the Enterprise, Colin White and I examine the value of combining the Extended Corporate Information Factory and the Smart BI Framework. This enables business intelligence processing to work cohesively with business transaction and business collaboration applications.
In the second article, Using Healthcare Business Intelligence to Improve Revenue Management, Scott Wanless discusses how healthcare providers must work with payers, many with different requirements for paying claims. In an effort to deal with the problems associated with denied claims, Scott explains how business intelligence can provide tactical help for collecting and understanding the data payers require. Organizations can then use this data to their advantage.
Please continue to use the Business Intelligence Network as your premier source for information regarding business intelligence, performance management, information quality and data warehousing.
Warm regards,
