Auditing Hospice Care Documentation

Data Tapestry has a large footprint in the healthcare industry. With over 8 years in experience in hospice care, we’ve noticed some large gaps in analytic capabilities in the hospice care field. From maintaining regulatory compliance to managing patient transitions with care, there are many delicate challenges in hospice care that are difficult to manage without the proper tools.

 

One challenge in particular is efficient documentation auditing over the course of a patient's stay. The documentation needs to be complete and relevant to the level of care prescribed as well as the level of care executed. Many times, this work is left to case workers or quality control departments where there is a constant feedback loop of reviewing the submitted documentation and then re-sending the documents that need to be updated.

 

With our documentation solution, provider notes can be continuously audited and checked for completion so there is no backlog on getting notes updated via a case worker or quality control department. Automating this type of work can allow your workforce to focus on more complex issues.

 

Currently, our system is EMR agnostic and has been prototyped on product review data. We ingest and clean the text data and show a display of basic stats by author ID. The reviewCount column shows how many documents that author has written, and the similarity measures how similar the documents are across that particular author.

 

 


To visualize the similarity, you can hover over any point in the heatmap and see the measure of similarity between any two documents for that author. Ideally, you’d want to see a mostly blue heatmap indicating a low level of similarity between any two given documents.





 

To analyze the text further, you can click on a point within the heat map. For example, documents 73 and 30 are 27.59% similar. A look at the raw text of each, shown below, indicates that there are some words in common, but overall, they are distinctly different.

 

 

Much of this analysis can be customized to fit your organization’s needs. We can adjust how often documentation should be reviewed, particular thresholds for similarity scores as well as changes to the interface.

  1. The authentic conversion was applied to roughly 50 late-model Bally slot machines. Because the typical machine stopped the reels routinely in lower than 10 seconds, weights were added to the mechanical timers to prolong the automatic stopping of the reels. By the time the New Jersey Alcoholic Beverages Commission had accredited the conversion to be used in New Jersey arcades, the word was out and every other distributor began adding ability stops. The machines 우리카지노 were a huge hit on the Jersey Shore and the remaining unconverted Bally machines were destroyed as that they had become immediately obsolete. Every reputable slots casino will supply players the choice to play slots free of charge.

Transforming and Accessing Data through Custom Built Pipelines

One of the biggest hurdles in data analysis is just getting access to data in the first place. At Data Tapestry, we offer end-to-end analytics services beginning with data acquisition, performing analytics, and providing end user products. Keith Shook walks us through how to maintain data security and integrity when dealing with a variety of situations. Tell us a little about your background and your role at Data Tapestry. Currently, I’m a senior data engineer, but I actually started off as an intern ingesting data into Postgres and SQL databases. I then shifted into visualization using D3, a javascript library, but we found that Tableau was much more efficient. Since then, I’ve gained a variety of experience using scala, Hive, AWS, and building clusters.   Can you walk us through a project you’ve worked on? Data engineering is pretty straightforward as far as the process goes. You get the data, ingest it into the database, and then hand it off to the data scientist. You have to be fle

Utility Corridor Management using Machine Learning

At Data Tapestry, our team's expertise spans a variety of specialties. While we've been able to apply NLP techniques, forecasting, and predictive analytics to many problems, most recently our team had to work with image data and the complexities that it presents. We combined resources with unmanned imaging experts at Skytec, LLC to create a solution for overgrowth and vegetation management in utility corridors.  Damages in these areas due to overgrowth can occur without warning. Tower damage and power outages can cost millions of dollars in repairs and regulatory fines. It is even more important to detect these encroachments since an electricity arc or flashover can occur within less than 15 feet of power lines, thereby damaging equipment or causing fire to nearby vegetation. Unfortunately, manual efforts to monitor overgrowth can be extremely manpower intensive, expensive, and inefficient. Our Solution Imaging experts at Skytec provide aerial photos of utility corridors via un

Automating Visualizations and Implementing Standardized Data Collection Practices

Creating automated visualizations can be difficult when working data that has not been standardized. In a large hospital system, standardization requires multi-level communication across many departments as well as strict adherence to those standards so that processes can be implemented. Alex Ratliff talks us through how he created a dashboard around ever changing standardization issues. Tell me about your background and role at Data Tapestry. I’m currently a data scientist at Data Tapestry. My background is in math and analytics. During the first three years of my career, I worked at a company that contracted with the department of defense. While I was there, I worked on making dashboards to monitor data flow to make sure the data was being processed correctly. There were different sites that make data transfers. Our job was to make sure each job had the proper amount of bandwidth. I mostly used R and SQL to manage that.   Tell me about the dashboard project you worked on. When I star
