Healthcare is undergoing enormous change. This results in a large number of new challenges, putting the quality of care and the patient experience under pressure. With Big Data Analysis, you can provide new insights your organisation needs to achieve significant improvements in the quality of care, cost control, and operational efficiency.

By Big Data In healthcare, the immediate thought is often of hospitals. Naturally, a great deal can be achieved in this environment with the help of Big Data analysis, from mapping patient flows to making logistics more efficient. Beyond hospitals, data analysis can make a positive contribution to virtually all aspects of healthcare.

In laboratories, data analysis is used, for example, to check if the number of requests for examinations by GPs deviates from the average, where demographic factors are also considered. Predicting an influenza epidemic is possible by analysing social media and combining it with data from GPs. Big Data analysis is indispensable in the development of medicines. The enormous amounts of data used for these types of studies are ideally suited for Big Data analysis, creating new valuable insights.

When thinking about Big Data in healthcare, there is also often talk of privacy issues. In some cases, legislation can be a limiting factor for carrying out projects. However, this does not mean that privacy should be taken lightly. Anonymising data is a widely used solution. The analysis software can ensure that users can only see the anonymised data.

PuurData has developed a solution specifically for the healthcare sector that can deliver results very quickly. The average implementation time is less than a month. Thanks to its scalable design, the solution can easily be used for a ‘proof of concept’ and then rapidly rolled out into production. Do take a look at our white paper ‘Big Data Big Deal’ download ours Big Data Project poster.
