Healthcare data platform case study

Healthcare Data Analytics Platform

Case Study: GDPR-Compliant Data & Analytics Platform

Discover how we developed a comprehensive healthcare data platform for patient data analysis, predictive modeling, and real-time dashboards for healthcare professionals.

Healthcare & Data

Project Overview

An advanced healthcare data analytics platform for a large healthcare organization. The platform centralizes patient data from various sources, provides predictive analytics for better patient care, and fully complies with GDPR and AVG regulations.

The Challenge

The healthcare organization struggled with fragmented data across different systems, making it impossible to get a complete picture of patient care. This led to inefficiencies and missed opportunities for better care delivery:

  • Data scattered across 12+ different systems without integration
  • Manual reporting that took weeks and was error-prone
  • No insight into patient trends or risk prediction
  • GDPR compliance concerns with sensitive patient data
  • Administrative burden prevented direct patient contact

Our Solution

We developed a comprehensive data platform with central data warehouse, ETL pipelines, machine learning models for predictive analytics, and intuitive dashboards for healthcare professionals, fully GDPR-compliant.

Data Warehouse

Central PostgreSQL data warehouse with optimized schemas

ETL Pipelines

Apache Spark for real-time data processing and transformation

Predictive Analytics

Machine learning models for risk prediction and trends

GDPR Compliance

End-to-end encryption, audit trails, and privacy by design
