Attention: Understanding KLAS Data

KLAS data and reports represent the combined opinions of actual people from provider organizations comparing how their vendors, products, and/or services performed when measured against participants' objectives and expectations. KLAS findings are a unique compilation of candid opinions and are real measurements representing those individuals interviewed. It is not meant to be conclusive data for an entire client base. Significant variables including organization/hospital (rural, teaching, specialty, etc), size of organization, depth/breadth of software use, software version, role in the organization, provider objectives and system infrastructure/network impact participants' opinions, thus precluding an exact apples-to-apples vendor/product comparison or a finely tuned statistical analysis. KLAS provides the findings as valuable data points to be used with other data points in the overall analysis of the reader. We encourage our clients, friends and partners using KLAS research data to take into account the variables as they include KLAS data in their other due diligence.
