The challenge

  • The client, a prominent healthcare provider based in the USA, faced difficulties in fetching and analyzing data, resulting in challenges in service provision, patient care, and financial inconsistency.
  • The data's intricate nature made it challenging to interpret and analyze promptly. Non-standardized formats and diverse reporting structures caused delays in extracting actionable insights.
  • Disintegrated electronic health records (EHR) across various systems hindered access to a comprehensive patient overview.
  • Inconsistencies in data structures and delays in receiving payer reports impacted financial accuracy. Difficulty in fetching real-time outpatient data led to delayed healthcare services.

The solution

  • Conducted a comprehensive assessment of existing data sources, formats, and structures. Data connectors and ETL processes were created to handle non-standardized formats.
  • Automated data cleaning algorithms were implemented to address inconsistencies. Power BI data models were developed to integrate patient records, treatment histories, and medical information.
  • Real-time data integration channels were established between different EHR systems.
  • A streamlined data pipeline using Power BI was built for the automated extraction and processing of payer reports.
  • A real-time monitoring system in Power BI was implemented for outpatient data, providing immediate insights into outpatient service utilization.
  • Role-based access control features were added to Power BI to ensure secure data access and compliance.
  • The solution underwent rigorous testing before deployment to the product environment.
