Asha Saxena explores big data and how companies can use it to their benefit with Dun & Bradstreet’s Senior Vice President and Chief Data Scientist, Dr. Anthony Scriffignano. In this episode, we uncover the fears that so many people and companies share with regard to big data. In our culture, we value privacy, and people feel as though with big data, nothing is sacred anymore, nothing is private anymore. Dr. Anthony Scriffignano explores this notion and provides insight into how big data is not scary but useful if curated to be used strategically. Big data is here to stay. Businesses are using it, and if you don’t start using it in a meaningful way, you could be left behind. What you will learn about in this episode: What it means to organize big data so that it is highly dynamic data, which can provide the clearest, fullest view of any given company on earth An understanding that there are many different perspectives and different interpretations of artificial intelligence and that it is not easily lumped under one definition What it means to be human versus what it means to be a robot and how far we have come in today’s society and yet still have so far to go What it means to not be scared of science, why that’s important, and why — though you should not fear it — you should be cautious of it A discussion on reason and how humans understand the “why” of what they do but robots or artificial intelligence does not understand the “why” component, which is a very important component of learning and growing intellectually A discussion of our conscious selves and how this process is present and absent in artificial intelligence The meaning of privacy and regulation, big data’s role in these things, and how it is changing the world we know Why some of what we fear — that our privacy or everything we do is discoverable — is relevant and reasonable but it does not mean that it is a bad thing because data can change the way we do things for the better Why the cost of doing nothing is not something without a cost any more (and why doing nothing can actually turn into something costly) Why action matters today and why you must act on the data you have to perform better and be better Overall, how technologies continue to advance and evolve, how the evolution is changing the world, and how we can use it for positive purposes Ways to contact Dr. Anthony Scriffignano: Twitter: @Scriffignano1 LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-scriffignano-ph-d-9165845…

This data disruption in healthcare will continue in dramatic fashion, allowing us to improve delivery of services at lower costs. Join us as we discuss how this disruption will occur and what type of players will lead the disruption. What you will learn about in this episode: How the healthcare industry has evolved during the past 25 years from a state of not having the necessary data or cultural readiness for using it to an environment in which we have the data and can now combine cost, quality, and efficiency Why many organizations need not worry about dragging a burdensome “data boat anchor” as they change Ways that machine learning and AI can assume much of the administrative burden by automating routine processes for doctors, nurses, and other clinical staff How coordinated care will use predictive modeling in ways that go beyond patient identification and risk cohorts to get to a deeper individualized level Ways that electronic data promotes an environment that allows us to move away from Byzantine rules of the past toward a consumer-based market where we can go where we want and select services we want Reasons that new players such as Amazon and Chase have come into healthcare, as well as the way that firms like CVS have started to redefine their role What healthcare professionals can do to innovate their operations with their ability to access and understand clinical data, consumer data, and patient experience data How data management is no longer relegated to a back room by techies and instead becomes better understood throughout the organization Why consumerism is the future as consumers feel empowered to make their healthcare decisions that involve lower cost care settings than traditional hospitals How we should expect a revolution in the use and management of electronic health records as we better understand the value of the data within them Ways to contact podcast host Asha Saxena: Email: Asha@divewithdata.com Phone: 732-887-0980…

Asha Saxena takes a deep look at what data privacy and ethics means in the world of healthcare with Darrell Walter of Penn State Health. Data privacy and ethics in healthcare is a big deal, because it affects all of us on at least some level. From health insurance premiums, healthcare access, employment, and even on a personal level of not wanting all our personal health information being made available to anyone who wants it. So why is this worth a discussion? We have data protection laws, right? Well, this is where we step into a gray world. Big data in healthcare raises ethical issues because the data is used without a patient’s consent. Medical records are governed by rules to protect privacy so most health data can be stripped of identifying information like your age or your lifestyle habits. However, it could cross into an ethical gray area if patient privacy is compromised. Meanwhile, the federal government has opened an immense store of healthcare knowledge including data from clinical trials and information on patients covered under public insurance programs. And finally, patients are generating and sharing their own data through smartphone apps and online patient communities and many of these programs and communities lack strong data protection. It’s a little scary, but there are also some huge benefits that come along with the use of this data. Darrell Walters helps us explore these benefits from identifying rare cancers to truly personalized healthcare. Let’s get started with this episode of Dive With Data! ----- What you will learn about in this episode: What are the risks and opportunities that sharing our healthcare data affords us? How big data has helped Penn State Health reduce sepsis mortality by 25 percent. The ethical questions of healthcare data and clinics advertising to patients based on that data. Should healthcare data gathering include our social posting to understand our lifestyle habits better? The difference between being application centric vs data centric as an organization. What is data governance and why does it matter? Why implementing common data models is important for more than just one organization. What drives the location and types of services health networks provide in an area. Ways to contact Asha Saxena: Email: Asha@divewithdata.com Phone: 732-887-0980…
