Krankenversicherung und neue Technologien – geht das zusammen? Auf alle Fälle! Und das User-Group-Treffen „Analytik in der Krankenversicherung“, das kürzlich in Leipzig stattfand, hat es unter Beweis gestellt. Diese von den Gesundheitsforen Leipzig ausgerichtete Veranstaltung ist ein sehr informatives Forum, auf dem sich analytische Fachexperten aus der Gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung (GKV)

Fest steht: Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) wird unser aller Leben verändern – und tut es schon. Weniger klar ist, in welcher Weise und in welchem Zeitrahmen diese Veränderungen passieren – und was am Ende dabei herauskommt. In vielen Bereichen gibt es wilde Spekulationen. Bei Life Sciences und im Gesundheitssektor lichtet sich
비운의 영화 배우, 파킨슨병 치료를 위해 앞장서다 타임머신과 시간 여행을 다룬 영화 하면 무엇이 가장 먼저 떠오르시나요? 전 세계적으로 가장 크게 흥행한 영화 중 하나는 단연 스티븐 스필버그 감독 제작의 SF 영화 ‘백 투 더 퓨처(Back to the Future)’일텐데요. 1985년에 개봉된 이 영화는 11주 동안 미국 박스 오피스 1위를 차지하고,
The data I was analyzing was about “trust.” Maybe that’s what got me thinking about Stephen Sondheim, the Broadway composer and lyricist of musicals like Sunday in the Park with George and Into the Woods and the lyricist for West Side Story. Trust is a heavy emotional topic. Developmental psychologists
Künstliche Intelligenz wird meist mit Alexa und Siri oder Chatbots bei Banken und Callcentern assoziiert. Eher selten wird über das Potenzial der KI-Technologien in den Life Sciences und im Gesundheitswesen gesprochen – die Idee ist aber im Kommen. Das zeigt eine aktuelle Studie von Accenture: 74 Prozent der Führungskräfte in
En el marco de la 4ª Convención Latinoamericana de Analítica, uno de los temas centrales fue la importancia de que las empresas saquen todo el potencial de sus datos para que la tecnología que implementan pueda mostrar su máximo valor en el marco de la Transformación Digital de sus negocios.
Die Digitalisierung bringt enorme Potenziale für Unternehmen: individualisierte Kundenansprache, spezifische bedürfnisorientierte Angebote, bessere Steuerbarkeit der Kundeninteraktion – all dies dient letztlich der Umsatzsteigerung und der Befriedigung der Shareholder. Doch es sind nicht nur Unternehmen, die die Herausforderung der Digitalisierung von Prozessen und Produkten annehmen und ihren Profit daraus schlagen, sondern
It seems only a few months back I posted an article on creating Pie Charts using a GTL based macro. Well, looking back, that was almost 6 years ago!! Recently, a colleague here at SAS needed to create Pie Charts in his report along with other plots created using SGPLOT
“Machine Learning” is a trendy term being kicked around (pun intended) by fraud fighters around the world. In fact, Machine Learning is such a popular term that it is becoming a staple in buzzword bingo games. Here’s a little secret about machine learning… many of the people who talk about
Das Gesundheitssystem in Deutschland sieht sich mittel- und langfristig vor große finanzielle Herausforderungen gestellt. Zum Teil ist dies wohl das Ergebnis des eigenen Erfolgs. Der kontinuierliche Fortschritt bei medizinischen Behandlungsmethoden hat dazu geführt, dass immer mehr Krankheiten erfolgreich behandelt werden können. Aus diesem Grunde erfreuen sich die Menschen einer immer
Todo se basa en una sencilla teoría económica: cuando los precios de los productos aumentan, la gente no está dispuesta a pagarlos y, en consecuencia, la demanda se va a pique; evidentemente, sucede el efecto contrario cuando se reducen. No obstante, el mecanismo que se activa al modificar dicho valor
3월 라스베이거스에서 전 세계 4만명 이상의 헬스케어 IT 전문가, 임상의, 기업 경영진 등이 참여한 가운데 세계적인 헬스케어 IT 컨퍼런스 ‘HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society)’가 개최됐습니다. 기조연설을 맡은 에릭 슈미트(Eric Schmidt) 전 구글 CEO는 인간 중심 의료(person-centered care)의 중요성에 대해 역설하며 주목 받았는데요. 이어 무대에 오른 시마 버마(Seema Verma) 미국 의료서비스센터(CMS)
Stigma and discrimination in behavioral health, while improving, remain obstacles to people seeking care. And any obstacles need to be addressed, because those struggling with behavioral health and mental illness are simply not getting the help they need. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, “The percentage of young
The PharmaSUG 2018 conference was held two weeks ago, with great enthusiasm and a record attendance. The highlight for me was the large spread on visual presentation of data, from papers to poster presentations. I will provide a more detailed report on all the exciting graphical presentations. One topic of
소비자들은 다양한 산업에 빠르게 도입되고 있는 인공지능(AI)을 어떻게 받아들이고 있을까요? SAS가 최근 미국인 500명을 대상으로 조사한 결과, 소비자들은 금융이나 소매 분야보다 의료 산업의 인공지능 기술을 더욱 편안하게 여기는 것으로 나타났습니다. 특히 응답자의 47%는 수술 중에도 기꺼이 인공지능 기술의 도움을 받겠다고 답했는데요. 또 10명 중 6명(60%)은 의사가 애플워치나 핏비트와 같은 웨어러블 기기의 데이터를
La medida en que las organizaciones se beneficien de la Inteligencia Artificial, machine learning y la analítica dependerá de sus necesidades y la aplicación que puedan tener para hacerlas más rentables, ágiles y competitivas. La inteligencia artificial (IA) ha estado presente en nuestras vidas más tiempo del que creemos. Está
Landmark population health study involving 50,000 northern Nevadans turns to SAS to reveal hidden health insights These are exciting times in health care. Earlier this week I read that the NIH will soon open enrollment for its “All of Us” initiative. The research program aims to compile the genetic and health
Have you ever lied about your age? When you were younger, perhaps you exaggerated your age to watch an R-rated movie, buy cigarettes, get into a night club, or drink alcohol? And when people reach their 30s or 40s, they might subtract a few years when people ask their age.
As health care evolves, its entire ecosystem – from payers and providers to pharmaceutical companies and government agencies – seeks to find common ground. More data is available than ever. But transforming information into innovation is challenging. Organizations strive to create shared goals, internally and externally, trying to improve patient
How old was the oldest person in your family, or the oldest person you personally know? And how do they compare to the oldest people in the world? ... Perhaps you can easily make the comparison, with this cool graph! But before we get started, here's a picture of my
A while back a user requested to create a 3D WaterFall chart as presented by E Castanon Alvarez et. al. in "3D waterfall plots: a better graphical representation of tumor response in oncology" Annals of Oncology, Volume 28, Issue 3, 1 March 2017, Pages 454–456. I posted a blog article titled

México se encuentra inmerso en la mayor transformación de su historia. Sin importar la inclinación política del gobierno en el poder, las instituciones clave para el desarrollo del país –gracias a su autonomía- innovan a fin de proveer mejores servicios a la ciudadanía y elevar la transparencia de sus operaciones.
What message do former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, CMS Administrator Seema Verma, and White House Senior Advisor Jared Kushner have in common? They all asserted the importance of person-centered care in their respective remarks at HIMSS two weeks ago in Las Vegas. Person-centered care treats the patient/healthcare consumer as an

My buddy Rick Wicklin recently pointed me towards an animation of some opioid prescription rate data for Illinois. And, of course, I decided we needed a similar animation for North Carolina (with a few improvements...) Here's the original, and here are the problems that jump out at me: Counties with
This article is motivated by a recent question on the SAS Communities board. This user wants to create a series or spline plot where the attributes of the line (color, thickness) can be changed based on another variable. In this case it may be a binary variable with "0" and
La información genómica, las pruebas clínicas, los expedientes médicos electrónicos, los estudios de investigación y los resultados de las investigaciones pueden derivar en descubrimientos relevantes y apoyar a las autoridades sanitarias para tomar mejores decisiones. Como muchas otras disciplinas tecnológicas, la analítica se está aprovechando para hacer frente a las
Survival plots are automatically created by the LIFETEST procedure. These graphs are most often customized to fit the needs of SAS users. One way to create the customized survival plot is to save the generated data from the LIFETEST procedure, and then use the SGPLOT procedure to create your custom
