Data Science is Changing the Healthcare Industry

Updated: Sep 28, 2020


As analysts have access to the information about patient health status from medical notes, they can develop predictive models to find out if any of the healthcare provider’s patients are at risk for certain medical conditions. After risk factors are identified, the hospital management system can inform the hospital staff that certain patients may need proper treatment. Technology is helping make it possible for amazing strides in the healthcare industry and there are many ways in which big data is innovating healthcare overall. When people are not feeling well and need medication prescribed, chances are the medication received will be chosen with the help of Data Science. There are thousands of clinical trials that take place across the world where medical professionals are able to study the side effects and benefits of medications.


Stress and anxiety can have a dire impact on people's health. It can keep them from getting the proper rest and can elevate heart rates to unhealthy levels. Data Science has allowed the creation of apps to help offer guided meditations, as well as independent ones. This helps one to breathe better and levels out their heart rate. You can track everything from how fast a heart is beating, how much exercise one is getting, and even the number of calories one is eating a day. Because of this, many people are able to live a healthier lifestyle. They can take control of their health by having the vital information they need, right at their fingertips, using Data Science.


While Data Science provides tools and methods to extract real value from unstructured patient information, it eventually contributes to making healthcare more efficient, accessible, and personalized.
