Achieving the Promise: Analytics and Machine Learning in Healthcare

An Economist Webinar

The Economist

The healthcare industry is increasingly under pressure to ensure a steady flow of high quality, actionable data. The consequences of overlooking this imperative are harmful: a bad data foundation results in meaningless and misleading outputs.

There has been a surge in data visualization to make data scientists out of citizens and get the general public to ‘see’ the bigger picture. This data driven healthcare culture, fueled by the pandemic, will without a doubt, outlive it.

The emphasis on unearthing facts and figures and making them universally digestible will be hugely consequential. Enacting this mandate though, hinges on putting the right infrastructure in place and this extends far beyond just investing in technology.

In this webinar, we will answers some key questions:

  • What are the hurdles to getting high quality interoperable data that can be scaled and leveraged for analytics?
  • How can visualization be used to improve data literacy globally?
  • How conscious are we of the link between sources of data and bias?
  • How does this impact our understanding of social determinants of health?
  • How can we harness machine learning to make healthcare more efficient, and free up resources for care?

This webinar is hosted by The Economist Events and sponsored by InterSystems.

Enterprise Master Person Index
Next-Generation Enterprise Master Person Index for Identity Management Seamless patient, member, and beneficiary identification is essential for efficient operations across healthcare organisations and government agencies. Yet, fragmented systems, inconsistent identifiers, and data gaps continue to disrupt workflows, increase costs, and compromise care quality and service delivery. 35% of denied medical claims stem from inaccurate patient identification¹, while mergers and affiliations further complicate record consolidation. Even within a single information system, duplicate or overlaid records can introduce inefficiencies and risks; by creating costly administrative burdens and compromising the accuracy of AI workflows built on unreliable data. To maintain data integrity and prevent cascading errors, organisations must be able to detect problematic records in real time and trigger corrective actions.
