Exciting New Opportunities and Challenges in the Analytics & Reporting Space Mean that Timely Access to Information for the Purposes of Insight, Trending and Decision-making is Taking on a Key Role Across the Health Care and Life Sciences Industries
REUSE, AUTOMATE, SHARE, and COLLABORATE
Access to data and key information for the purpose of Analytics has been a constant in the Pharmaceutical / Life Sciences / Health Care industries, and this has been true for a great deal of time. Recent industry challenges such as declining R&D productivity, increased levels of regulatory and payer scrutiny, declining sales, blockbusters going off patent, and the need to reduce healthcare costs while improving patient care etc. have only served to dramatically increase the importance of Data Sciences Analytics as a prerequisite for efficient delivery of Life Sciences and Health Care products and services.
Existing industry IT applications and tools supporting the Data Sciences Analytics function typically operate in a reactive, not proactive manner. They can produce reports and visualizations on “what happened”, but lack sufficient ability to provide crucial insights to help organizations anticipate future business opportunities and issues. In addition, both industries are blurring boundaries and are at a stage of exploiting a potential of variety and volume of data not only from within each individual industry but also across both industries, with the overall focus is moving towards “Patient-centricity”.
Looking at this further, there has been a realization that the process of Analytics, aided by Big Data initiatives, is evolving from Descriptive Analytics to Predictive Analytics and from controlled “Straight-Line” Analytics to less structured “Real World” and “Data Sciences” Analytics. There has also been a corresponding awareness that Data Sciences Analytics & Reporting is no longer a “one size fits all” business process, and that providing a single Data Sciences Analytics environment intended to be used to meet the diverse needs of the Data Science Analytics & Reporting stakeholder community is no longer sufficient
The new Analytics & Reporting paradigm expects to be able to access additional types of data such as Claims Data, EMRs, patient behavior data, Imaging data, Cost Data etc. which have recently emerged alongside the “traditional” forms of Clinical Data produced by R&D processes. These new types of formats are available for integration and aggregation across the entire Data Sciences Analytics spectrum.
To execute this new breed of Analytics, the Role of the Data Scientist has surfaced and become more visible and important within Health Care & Life Sciences organizations. Data Scientists expand upon the more-familiar Business Analyst role by exploring and examining data located in disparate standardized and non-standardized, structured and non-structured, and internal / external data sources, with the intention of looking at data from many perspectives in order to uncover a previously hidden insight, which in turn can lead to a competitive advantage or address a pressing business problem.
This webinar discusses Data Sciences Analytics and the new Analytics Paradigm from an overall industry perspective along with a discussion of the MaxisIT Common Services Analytics Framework and Data Sciences Analytics Workbench functionality which MaxisIT will be implementing within its CTRenaissance suite of tools and how the functionality is used to oversee the presentation and availability of data that will support and drive Data Sciences initiatives across the Health Care & Life Sciences industries, including Predictive Analytics.
Key Takeaways of the webinar include:
- Understanding the various types and formats of Analytics for the Health Care & Life Sciences industries
- Reviewing the role and function of the Data Scientist in carrying out new and expanded Analytics projects
- Discuss the concept and infrastructure of an overall environment to support Data Sciences Analytics
- Discuss how adoption of Data Sciences Analytics initiatives, coupled with Big Data initiatives, can provide crucial insights to help organizations anticipate future business opportunities
