Yichuan Wang, Terry Anthony Byrd · 2017 · Journal of Knowledge Management

Summary. This study examines how business analytics capabilities in hospitals improve decision-making effectiveness by enhancing knowledge absorptive capacity. Using survey data from 152 Taiwanese hospitals, the researchers found that effective use of data analysis and interpretation tools indirectly strengthens decision-making through better knowledge absorption. The findings show that absorptive capacity mediates the relationship between analytics capabilities and decision outcomes, offering insights into how healthcare organizations can leverage data tools more effectively.
