Data & Analytics Team
The DHM Data and Analytics team was created in 2018 to drive outstanding clinical outcomes, support quality improvement efforts, build best practices for clinical operations, and pair these efforts with our scholarship, educational, and research missions.
Embedded within DHM, the team works collaboratively with any divisional faculty or staff member in the clinical, operational, quality and safety, medical education, and research setting. We believe that the team has been transformational from an operational perspective and in the growth of our programs!
