SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Health Catalyst publicly announced the seven winners of the Catalyst Awards, an annual awards program recognizing hospitals and health systems that have led the way in digitizing and transforming healthcare. The winners were announced at the annual Healthcare Analytics Summit (HAS) in Salt Lake City, Utah. HAS is the premier event showcasing data and analytics’ critical role in tackling some of healthcare’s most significant challenges.
The Catalyst Awards
High-Value Data and Analytics Winner: Baylor Scott & White Health
Baylor Scott & White Health achieved a six-fold increase in sepsis bundle compliance, $8.3M cost savings during the 15-month study period, the result of a statistically significant difference in total direct costs, 17 percent lower ICU admission, and 17 percent lower mortality rate.
Patient Engagement Winner: Providence
Providence achieved a 25.2 percent increase in average patient engagement, increased engagement across 13 separate deployments, including different hospitals, clinics, and service lines. The organization also achieved a 44 percent relative decrease in readmissions for patients undergoing total joint replacement and a 15 percent relative decrease in LOS.
Population Health Winner: The Queen’s Health System
The Queen’s Health System achieved $7.1M in cost savings, a 71.6 percent relative reduction in inpatient admission, a 15.9 percent relative reduction in LOS, and a 37.1 percent relative reduction in 30-day readmissions.
Quality and Cost Winner: WakeMed Health and Hospitals
WakeMed Health and Hospitals achieved $10M in direct variable cost reduction, and 37 patients avoided readmission to the hospital. Without this work, the health system would have needed inpatient beds for 10 more patients every day of the year.
Tech-Enabled Managed Services – Analytics Winner: Carle Health
Carle Health applied AI to identify and understand the drivers of long/excess LOS. New insights enabled improved leadership decision-making, and the organization avoided implementing costly interventions that would not have impacted drivers of long/excess LOS.

INTEGRIS Health applied AI to establish leadership and performance goals that demonstrate actual, achievable improvement in a transparent and reproducible way that motivates change. The organization also established processes for establishing goals less prone to bias and responsive to human value judgments.
