Healthcare Data Management

Changing industry dynamics, and fast changing technology landscapes are forcing healthcare entities to innovate and develop new products. More often than not, healthcare providers, payers, disease/wellness management, TPAs and other healthcare trading partners, continuously adapt new products to improve efficiency, and deliver better patient care.

Healthcare entities face daunting challenges during the deployment of their developed software products like Electronic Medical Records, Practice Management Systems, Hospital Information Systems, Radiology Information Systems, Laboratory Information Systems, Picture Archiving and Communication Systems, Revenue Cycle Management solutions, and Claims Administration systems. These requires huge amount of data to be migrated from various source systems, having multiple data types, with different data formats. Challenges include: extracting appropriate data like claims, eligibility, and other data from various sources, transform it into new format according to business rules, and load the same to target data structure. These activities require clear understanding of the source and the target structure which adds to the challenge.

The rules and processes for the increasing diversity of data sources, and high volumes of data processed, that ETL must accommodate, need to be managed.  This makes management, performance, and cost the primary and key challenge for healthcare ISVs.
