About the Client
An American software company delivering tailored solutions to over 150 healthcare centers and retirement homes. Its flagship software gives providers fast, secure access to patient histories, treatment plans, and medical records, improving both data accuracy and communication among care teams.
Project Overview
The client engaged Deltacubes to rewrite its Java-based patient data application, focused on scalability for growing data volumes and user demand, a more modular architecture for easier future updates, and high-quality population health analytics for better patient outcomes.
Challenges
- Legacy system limitations: the existing Java application could not scale or deliver prompt query responses across medication, clinical, and patient data.
- Data fragmentation: reporting data was spread across 150 separate databases totaling 15GB, making consolidation a major technical challenge.
- Need for advanced analytics: detailed reporting on medication classification, hospital readmissions, and employee performance required a more robust backend.
Solution Provided
- A scalable Microsoft SQL Server data warehouse built for efficient processing and short query response times across all 150 healthcare centers' data.
- A Transact-SQL pipeline to load and consolidate data from the 150 individual source databases.
- JReport integration for Medication Classification, Missed Medications, Hospital Readmissions, Employee Performance, and Community Marketing Activity Summary reports.
- OLAP cubes planned for future-ready, aggregated healthcare analytics.
