Project Title Medicare Hospital Readmissions: CMS Synthetic Dataset
Project Topics Data Management Information Technology (IT) Reporting, Financial Planning & Analysis
Skills & Expertise Data Engineering Data Processing Data Visualization Digital Project Management Quantitative Research
Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity
Hospital Readmissions within 30 days indicate poor health but also poor care. If you have to check into the hospital again with 30 days of leaving the first time, it could be that the hospital didn’t properly plan for your release or the provider they sent you to couldn’t provide adequate care. The only way we can figure out disparity in care like this, we need to provide tools that find and summarize the occurrences over time, geography, and providers.
Project Synopsis: Activities/Actions Required
Download and parse the pipe-delimited file. Score readmissions for the same patient for the same illness within 30 days. Present in a dashboard summarizing aggregates.
Project Synopsis: Expected Results
HHS and VA clients look for digital resources like this to decide whether to award us contracts. Claims data is otherwise legally protected, and synthetic data enables us to illustrate innovations.
