Newswise — Ann Arbor, Michigan — Visiun announced today that their leading laboratory analytics system, Performance Insight™, now incorporates a broad array of data elements from EMR systems.

In addition to the incorporation of EMR data, Visiun's test utilization system now provides reporting for both overutilization as well as underutilization of testing. Managing overutilization of testing offers health systems the opportunity to improve financial performance by several hundred thousand dollars per year (per million billable inpatient tests). Physician report cards provide clear actionable insights on unnecessary testing patterns, identifying areas of opportunities within minutes of going live.

Performance Insight applies underutilization guidelines to improve patient care and financial performance resulting in decreased length of stays, lower cases of readmission, and avoidance of legal liabilities. Performance Insight employs over 100 rules on underutilization covering important guidelines including:Critical Care:• Sepsis• Congestive heart failure• Pulmonary embolismTesting Algorithms: • Vitamin B12 deficiency• Thyroid FunctionHEDIS: • Comprehensive diabetes care• Cholesterol management for patients with cardiovascular conditions
