Driving Better Patient Outcomes with Care Management Analytics in Healthcare data solutions

In today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, effective data driven decision is more crucial than ever. The ability to analyse, manage, and optimize patient care processes relies on the seamless integration of diverse data sources like clinical, claims, social determinants of health etc. Leveraging the innovative medallion Lakehouse architecture, care management analytical template capabilities provide a robust platform for organizations to derive actionable insights and drive better patient outcomes. 

The Medallion Lakehouse for Care Management analytics 

Built on the foundation of the healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric which utilizes the medallion Lakehouse architecture. This architecture consists of three foundational layers, each playing a critical role in transforming raw data into actionable insights: 

• Bronze: The Raw Zone 
  The Bronze layer serves as the raw data zone, storing all data in its original format. This data includes various sources such as patient encounters, conditions, treatment adherence records, and other relevant care management information. By maintaining this data in its raw form, organizations ensure the integrity and completeness of the dataset, providing a solid foundation for subsequent processing and analysis. 

• Silver: The Enriched Zone 
  In the Silver layer, data from the Bronze Lakehouse is enriched and transformed into a standardized format for analysis. This layer stores metadata and file references based on healthcare interoperability standards such as FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources). The enriched data provides a holistic view of the patient record, integrating different modalities in healthcare data solutions which are critical for comprehensive care analysis. 

• Gold: The Curated Zone 
  The Gold layer represents the curated zone, where data is refined and structured for advanced analytics and reporting. By building a comprehensive data model, the data is optimized for, predictive analytics, and reporting dashboards that can provide deep insights into care quality, patient outcomes, and operational efficiency. 

Conceptual Architecture 

Care management analytics involves integrating and analysing diverse datasets, including clinical, claims and social determinants of health data. The medallion Lakehouse architecture in Microsoft Fabric offers the flexibility to ingest and process these data types at scale. The data flows from raw data ingestion to transformation into the Gold Lakehouse format. 

End to End execution steps 

Step 1: Create a workspace and add health solutions capability.
