We created a data warehouse and OLAP system on the web for outcome evaluation of rehabilitation services. Thirteen outcome indicators were use in this research. Efficiency of therapists and clinics, expected utility of treatments and graphic patterns were generated for data exploration, data mining and decision support. Users can retrieve plenty of graphs and statistical tables without knowing database structure or attributes. Our experiences showed that multi-dimensional database and OLAP could serve as a decision support system.
