About The Customer
Helsingborg Hospital is one of Sweden's largest privatized emergency hospitals and one of the most advanced healthcare providers. The hospital has around 500 beds and supports approximately 450,000 annual patient visits. The hospital is headquartered in Helsingborg, Sweden in the Skåne region. The hospital has achieved around €225 million ($300 million) in revenue with a workforce of 3,500 employees. The hospital is known for its high standards of service and medical care and is a regional leader in the healthcare industry.
The Challenge
Helsingborg Hospital, one of Sweden's largest privatized emergency hospitals, was facing a challenge to maintain its regional leadership position and high standards of service and medical care. The hospital was struggling to improve the quality of information and statistics that abound in the numerous data systems to drive operational improvements. The hospital needed a solution that could help it leverage the vast amount of data it had to improve its operations and maintain its leadership position in the healthcare industry.
The Solution
Helsingborg Hospital deployed QlikView to around 265 users across 5 functions in Sweden. The functions included Executive Analysis, Supply Chain Analysis, Clinical Operations & Care Delivery Analysis, Financial Analysis, and Resource Planning / HR Analysis. The hospital implemented four applications in 4 weeks and leveraged QlikView Server to link together more than 1.5 million records across a suite of disparate systems including Prima for HR, Provisio for operations, Raindance for finance, Melior for medical journals, and Conrad for x-ray systems. The next steps for the hospital include rolling out QlikView to more than 3,000 users.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.
