Overview

Seamless Patient Data Integration

A healthcare analytics provider needed to ingest massive volumes of complex patient data from dozens of health plan organizations using various formats and protocols—including HL7 v3, FHIR bundles, and JSON. With BridgeGate™, the client implemented a high-performance integration layer that seamlessly sanitized, processed, and delivered accurate data into their analytics engine. BridgeGate™ processed over 44 million patient files (45TB) in just 44 hours, enabling insights for 20+ health plans, 100+ hospitals, and millions of patients.

Background

About the Client

An Enterprise healthcare data platform which unifies data across multiple health plans for the providers to get insights for streamlining operations and improving clinical trial revenue.

The Problem

The Challenge

The customer receives different file types like HL7 v3 (CCDs), FHIR bundles, JSONs etc through multiple protocols.

The customer attempted to use competing EiPaaS products but they lacked the core integration functionality to parse the necessary data sets and fix errors in the data.

The Outcome

The Solution

The customer uses the fully managed BridgeGate which allows the team to focus on their core capabilities of building the analytics engine.

BridgeGate processed over 44 million patient files, approximately 45TB of data in 44 hours. The BridgeGate cloud auto-scaling and clustering feature was able to spin up additional processing power to meet the peak demand at a fraction of competing EiPaaS platform costs.

The Impact

The Results

BridgeGate™ helped exceed the volume/time requirements by processing over 44 million patient files, approximately 45TB of data in 44 hours. BridgeGate™ loaded an average of over 1 million complex CCDs per hour. The BridgeGate™ cloud auto scaling and clustering feature was able to spin up additional processing power to meet the peak demand at a fraction of the competing EiPaaS platform costs. This enabled upwards of 20 health plan providers, 100+ hospitals and millions of patients to get help in their care plan and gave insights to the practitioners for better patient care.
