Case Study: Cambridge Memorial Hospital achieves real-time visibility, compliance and better patient care with Information Builders (WebFOCUS)

Cambridge Memorial Hospital Meets Case Costing Requirements With WebFOCUS

Information Builders helped Cambridge Memorial Hospital — a 143‑bed regional hospital in Ontario — respond to new Ministry of Health quality‑based procedures that required close monitoring of case volumes, costs and a range of quality metrics. The hospital’s legacy manual reporting (including a whiteboard ER tracker) and static HR reports couldn’t provide the timely, standardized insight needed for compliance and operational decision‑making.

Using WebFOCUS BI plus iWay Service Manager and iWay DataMigrator to populate a data warehouse, Cambridge deployed dashboards, scorecards and an electronic ER tracking board with near‑real‑time data. The implementation eliminated tedious manual processes, improved compliance and funding oversight, enabled proactive case‑volume and ER management, and delivered better labor, budget and quality visibility across the hospital.
