  3. About me… Ohio State – BS ISE May 2013 Hyland Global Healthcare Services Internship & Work Experience • Reducing lead time • Reducing WIP • Improving material handling Healthcare Metrics • Quality of Care • Patient Satisfaction • Physician Utilization

  4. Welcome to the world of managing unstructured data!

  5. We’re not reinventing the wheel just learning how to use it! http://p-hamilton.blogspot.com/2011/08/common-but-strange-product-design-terms.html

  6. Evolution of Unstructured Data in Retail • Unstructured line items on a spreadsheet or ledger • Scanning & barcodes • Paper receipts • Completely digital transactions • Spending trends & notifications • Efficiency!

  7. But what about Healthcare? Patient-Centered Global Payment System The Solution Global payments made to a group of providers for all care. Providers are not rewarded for delivering more care, but for delivering the right care to meet the patient’s needs. Current Fee-for-Service Payment System The Problem Care is fragmented instead of coordinated. Each provider is paid for doing work in isolation, and no one is responsible for coordinating care. Quality can suffer, costs rise and there is little accountability for either.
