Value Pathways: Big Data in Healthcare

How can we capture the value of health data in a changing health care environment? New paradigms in health care—a shift toward accountable care models, a focus on patient health behaviors and choices, an emphasis on evidence-based medicine—seek to promote patient and provider choices and align cost with value. At the same time, data aggregation and availability continue to offer greater opportunity to power innovations that will improve health and the health care industry. This breakout session will offer a discussion of the value pathways in healthcare and the role for big data strategies and transparency in bending the cost curve. The session will include perspectives on the case for change, new pathways to value, and the evolution the industry requires to establish a more sustainable future.
