Abstract
This study explores the impact of hospital accessibility on life expectancy in the healthcare industry, taking Jordan as a case example and addressing the challenge of integrating spatial business intelligence and business data analytics into healthcare analysis. Thus, the study measures the effect and relationship between healthcare infrastructure and health outcomes. The study employed spatial Business intelligence architecture tools as its core methodology and the use of Java scripts as an accompanying programming tool, revealing a direct, strong and rigorous statistical correlation between the number of hospitals and life expectancy and an inverse correlation between hospital proximity and life expectancy. These insights highlight the significance of comprehensive healthcare facilities in improving life expectancy and encouraging the strategic incorporation of spatial analytics in health policy and planning in Jordan.
