Executive summary

The application of big data analytic systems in healthcare organizations is fast evolving

with rapid change recorded in the past two decades. Effective organization, storage and

classification of healthcare information had been a challenge in hospitals to an extent that it

lowered the quality-of-service delivery in healthcare organizations. Currently, hospitals apply big

data analytical tools in the identification and management of high risk and high-cost patients.

Sources of big data in healthcare systems include medical records, hospital records, systems

integrated with IoT and results from medical examinations. Hospitals rely on bid data system to

record, organize and store healthcare information that are used in service delivery, this has had a

positive impact on the quality of services delivered in healthcare organizations.

Operation systems have tremendously changed, especially in the 21 st century where

operations have transformed from semi-digital to autonomous system through use of artificial

intelligence and Internet of Thing (IoT). As Dash et al (2019) records, treatment models have

changed since hospitals adopted the use of big data techniques such as electronic health records

(EHRs) where every patient is assigned their own digital health record in their portal. Real-time

alerting systems are widely used in healthcare organizations to assist doctors and nurses with

advices while making prescriptive decision through use of Clinical Decision Support (CDS)

software. The article summarizes the quite a number of analytical tools derived from big data

that have positively impacted quality service delivery, management practices, system intelligence

and process improvement in healthcare system.

From the course, we have learnt that data analysis plays a critical role in ensuring that

qualitative services are delivered in healthcare organization. It is therefore important to

understand that rightful application of big data analytical tools enhance management processes

and service delivery to patients. Since big data tools are based on science and technology, for

effective management and analysis of these big data, there is need to have sufficient knowledge

on healthcare data framework, complexity and analytics in healthcare system (Mehta et al. 2020).

Analyzing and processing of big data is more complex in healthcare applications as compared to

other industries since these systems are used to monitor and provide treatment to humans thus

has no room for trial and error.

Healthcare organizations have adopted big data analytical tools offer effective structural

and organizational management at a reduced expenses as they strive to increase access to

medical care and improve on the quality of service delivered to patients. The information

technology systems within healthcare organizations have to keep up with the dual effects of

continuous progress and organizational complications in medical technology in order to enhance

intelligence surveillance. For instance, the emergence of e-health systems has revolutionized

healthcare system such that patients no longer have to keep documents of their clinical records

when visiting healthcare facilities. With EHRs, patient’s records are remotely stored within the

cloud database storage system and can be accessed by any hospital with EHRs systems. The

gains of big data in healthcare systems are tremendous and had revolutionized the service

delivery in all aspect of healthcare services
