Improved information for patient assessment, physician recruitment and more
The Iowa Hospital Association has developed a comprehensive online solution to enhance our members' use of the statewide inpatient and outpatient databases. In 2019, we expanded our data offerings to include several other datasets, including:
- American Hospital Association annual survey
- Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ Hospital Compare
- DATABANK
- Medicare Part B
- U.S. Census

Dimensions components improve access to Iowa inpatient and outpatient databases
There are three components to the Dimensions program:
- Discovery Datalytics is a suite of dashboards that allows members to visually analyze Iowa hospital and health care data to support strategic planning and operational decision-making. The dashboards employ multiple datasets, including utilization, financial, public health and quality data.
- Slice and Dice is a customized software package to build reports and charts in a user-friendly "slice and dice" environment. This flexible reporting tool allows you to select only the elements you need to see on your report in a layout of your choosing.
- Point and Click is an easy-to-use tool that provides standard report layouts you can customize "on the fly" to analyze inpatient and outpatient data and markets. An intuitive report wizard guides you through the process, letting you quickly produce ready-to-use reports based on your selections.
