Learning from other industries!
Retail Approach- Step 1:
Central Data Repository to store and process all longitudinal patient history Data
Lake
Analyze information across multiple touch points and episodes of care within the
Healthcare system or across Providers, Clinics, pharmacies, Home Health, and
specialty providers

Predictive Modeling/Analytics- Step 2:


360 degree Patient view used to build Predictive Models around high cost/high
quality patients e.g. long-term chronic disease management
Data gathered on patients after they leave the care setting enables more timely
visibility into patient behavioral/clinical changes.

Improved response times New wireless sensors can capture and transmit patient vitals at much higher
frequencies, and these measurements can stream into a Hadoop cluster.

unexpected changes.
Over time, this data can go into algorithms that proactively predict the likelihood of an
emergency even before that could be detected with a bedside visit.

Improve Reimbursement by Correcting Claims
Problem: Difficulty identifying coding errors among 300K daily
Healthcare claims
Large US Payer Health insurer had goals of marrying electronic health records with claims data

Data analysis is disjointed, making it difficult to identify coding errors

Undiscovered errors may harm patient health and reduce reimbursement from
government programs, costing many millions in missed payments

Impact Solution: Natural language processing over PDFs in Hadoop to


improve reimbursement revenue and health outcomes
$125+ M top line
benefit annually All of the unstructured, text-based data stored on HDP

Optical character recognition & natural language processing discovers errors

Coding accuracy improves reimbursement of claims and increases revenue

Analysis of aggregate data uncovers trends used to improve treatment & lower cost

Lessons Learned
1. Like it or not: your business and success runs at the
speed of software
2. No Question: The Hadoop ecosystem is revolutionizing
data management and analytics and evolving faster than
any one company possibly can.
3. Adoption Curve: Start learning and adopting now; be
ready for full adoption soon to stay competitive
4. There is only one Hadoop licensed by the Apache
software foundationchoose your distribution carefully
to avoid vendor lock from proprietary solutions as you
scale out!
