A Story about Big Data in Healthcare
summary
Aetna Innovation Labs builds a realtime comparative‑effectiveness and drug‑safety engine that parses 5 million members of claims data and produces a heat‑map risk matrix by crossmatching roughly 40–50 drugs/outcomes. It repurposes the CareEngine, runs 2×2 adverse‑event comparisons, and adds indication and comorbidity filters plus personalized risk stratification so clinicians can see age/sex‑specific risks. Developed in six weeks, the system surfaces corroborating signal chains (testing, symptoms, treatments), drove prior RCT evidence of 8.4% fewer hospitalizations, and is being pursued for patenting.
