A Comprehensive STAR-Format Guide to Healthcare Analytics Visualization (Paperback)

Paperback. Beyond passive dashboards: the new wave of Tableau intelligence is here. Your dashboard could be the difference between catching a care gap and missing a life-threatening complication. Healthcare analytics has reached a defining inflection point. Every day, health plans, hospitals, and value-based care organizations generate millions of data points across claims, encounters, pharmacy fills, risk adjustment, quality measures, utilization, and social determinants of health. The organizations that lead aren't simply collecting more data - they're turning it into timely, actionable intelligence that improves outcomes and lowers total cost of care. Agentic analytics changes the equation. Dashboards that wait to be opened are giving way to a new model of decision intelligence. With Tableau Agent, Tableau Next, Tableau Cloud, and Tableau Pulse, analytics moves beyond static reporting toward goal-oriented workflows that surface anomalies, run root-cause analysis, and guide users to the next decision - not just the next chart. BUILD HEALTHCARE ANALYTICS THAT WORKS LIKE THE REAL WORLDStructured around the STAR framework - Situation, Task, Action, Result - each of the 20 chapters turns a realistic healthcare challenge into a complete analytical solution.
