Metaimpact

Overview

As Wellstar launched a bold five-year plan to reimagine care delivery, leadership faced a familiar challenge: how to turn vision into action across a vast network of hospitals, departments, and partners.

Wellstar partnered with Metaimpact to build the digital infrastructure that supports this transformation, aligning strategy, unifying data, and empowering system-wide collaboration.

The Challenge

Wellstar’s executive team had a vision: unify their sprawling network of hospitals, teams, and initiatives under five strategic themes — from consumer access and engagement to team member wellness to community impact and care delivery.

But operationalizing that vision proved difficult.

  • Tracking the progress of work within the five strategic themes was challenging.
  • Data was siloed in tools like Tableau, spreadsheets, and project trackers like ServiceNow and CloudCoach.
  • Performance management lacked a shared system to connect projects to outcomes.
  • Leaders struggled to get a single, actionable view of the strategic plan.

Without a unified system, it was challenging to:

  • Align hospital and system priorities
  • Track the work happening across the system
  • Collaborate and share best practices system-wide
  • Roll up work and impact into one clear, connected picture

This wasn’t just a data or IT challenge. It was a systems alignment problem. Wellstar needed a purpose-built solution to manage the network of work happening across the health system.

The Solution

Wellstar partnered with Metaimpact to power the digital infrastructure behind the transformation.

Instead of data trapped in silos, Metaimpact integrated it all — pulling project context from their project and portfolio management tool, performance metrics from across the system, and raw data from 110+ sources into one intelligent, collaborative platform.

Together, Wellstar and Metaimpact:

  • Digitally structured the enterprise’s 5 strategic themes, each with nested focus areas and projects
  • Built shared workspaces to unite teams across departments and locations to collaborate in real time across every layer of their work
  • Ingested data from 110+ sources and linked initiatives to measurable goals, providing apples-to-apples comparisons and shared learning
  • Visualized real-time data in interactive dashboards and quarterly executive reporting
  • Embedded metrics and insights in context — from “team member engagement” to “unique patients” at a specific hospital — and showed how each ladders up to the enterprise strategy

Now, every hospital can see what’s working elsewhere — and act on it. Executives can go from high-level strategy to project-level impact in seconds. Teams at every level are aligned on shared goals, metrics, and action.

The Outcome

Wellstar’s transformation is underway — and accelerating.

  • 9 departments and 16 hospital locations already live, along with the executive team
  • 50+ more departments queued for launch
  • 350+ collaborative workspaces created
  • 110+ distinct data sources, 350+ metrics and 20+ quarterly executive reports driving system-wide insight

But beyond the numbers, Metaimpact is shifting the mindset:

  • Leaders can see performance and the work driving it — in one place.
  • Hospitals are learning from each other’s successes.
  • Best practices are no longer hidden — they’re shared and scaled.
  • Conversations across the organization now start with: “Can Metaimpact help with this?”
