Hospital Stay Analytics: Identifying Prolonged Stays by Diagnosis

The Length of Stay Dashboard is an interactive Tableau visualization that compares hospital stay durations across three hospitals. Users can filter the data by MS-DRG codes (Diagnosis-Related Groups) to analyze specific conditions or procedures. A key feature of the dashboard is its ability to compare the length of stay (LOS) against the Medicare mean, categorized by major diagnosis groups. ​

 

This allows users to quickly identify which diagnoses result in longer hospital stays than the Medicare benchmark and by how many days. By highlighting these variations, the dashboard helps healthcare administrators pinpoint inefficiencies, improve resource allocation, and enhance patient flow management.
