Making Decisions with Data

Scenario 1: The executive dashboard shows bed occupancy at 95% and rising. Decision: Open a new ward or transfer stable patients to step-down units.

Scenario 2: The financial dashboard shows lab revenue declining while encounter volume is steady. Decision: Investigate whether lab orders are being captured correctly.

Scenario 3: The workforce dashboard shows a single practitioner carrying 40% of the patient load. Decision: Redistribute appointments or hire additional staff.
