Predicting Patient Readmissions

SparkAirflowSnowflakePython

The Challenge

A regional hospital network was losing $12M annually to unplanned 30-day readmissions. Patient data was siloed across EMR systems, billing platforms, and lab databases with no unified view.

The Approach

Built a real-time data pipeline unifying 14 source systems into a single patient data warehouse. Developed predictive models on top of the integrated data that flagged high-risk patients at discharge, enabling care teams to intervene with targeted follow-up programs.

The Impact

27% reduction in 30-day readmissions

3.2M records unified across 14 source systems

$8.4M in annual cost savings
