Over the past 20 years, big data has affected every industry, but none more so than healthcare. Impactful uses range from the obvious improved profits for hospitals and healthcare facilities to decreased medical waste.
Big data in the health industry means much more than just revenue growth, though. Algorithms have been created to analyze big data that predict epidemics with 70-90% accuracy. Preventive care, improved quality of life, and cured diseases are just a small part of what big data is doing for the medical industry.
