Case Study: HCA Healthcare achieves automated, audience-tailored analytics delivery with Alteryx

Connecting with your Audience on their Terms with Alteryx

HCA Healthcare, a for-profit operator with 185 hospitals across 19 states and roughly 30 million patient encounters per year, faced a major analytics challenge: disparate data across platforms (Teradata, Oracle, Salesforce, Qlik, Tableau, etc.) and three distinct internal audiences—Senior Management, Functional Managers, and Analytics Support—each expecting different reporting formats and levels of detail. The team needed an automated way to consolidate, clean, and deliver targeted insights at scale.

The Strategic Analytics group used Alteryx to combine and scrub multiple data sources, generate meaningful metrics, and automate delivery in audience-specific formats—automated PDF one-pagers for senior leaders, Tableau dashboards for functional VPs, and raw Tableau Hyper files for analytics teams. The result is streamlined, repeatable distribution of tailored analytics that speeds decision-making, reduces manual effort, and drives positive impact across the organization and patient care.
