Healthcare is a vast area which comprises of hospitals, pharmaceuticals, health insurance, clinical trials, etc. Hereby using analytics, we can improve in many ways. Although we have a shortage of manpower as we can see the differences between rural and urban areas. We are also lacking the advancement of technology and analytics. To overcome it, healthcare analytics helps to a great extent.

You might be thinking “What is Healthcare Analytics?”, don’t worry I am coming there. Since we are moving from the traditional health system to the modern health system where usage of electronic health records (EHR), diagnostic results, Health Management Information System (HMIS), etc. are at large. These activities produce a large set of data which is known as Big Data which are complex and difficult to manage. To get insights about the healthcare data, we apply analytics on it for a better outlook. Healthcare Analytics is a set of applying statistical models and computational logic to unlock real value from healthcare data. In a simpler way, it is a part of Data Science.
