Why choose SAS® for population health analysis?
Health decisions are becoming societal ones. Population health analytics tools from SAS enable you to combine data from social determinants and the environment with population health and genetic data, then apply advanced analytics with embedded AI to get tangible results – results you can act on to improve quality and outcomes, as well as plan health delivery for the future.
Understand individual risk
Use predictive analytics to anticipate less-optimal outcomes so you can tailor intervention strategies to the needs of individuals, including patients, members, clients and policymakers.
Communicate with people the way they prefer
Identify patient/member preferences, determine the best message or intervention, and predict the likelihood of adherence using population health analytics tools.
Provide the best possible care
Integrate clinical and real-world data to holistically evaluate the best care options at each interaction.
Accelerate intelligent outcomes
Use AI to automate processes, control costs and put the focus on people. Image analytics, machine learning and natural language processing extract insights from large volumes of structured and unstructured content.
Linking Health and Non-Health Data to Inform Population Health Strategies
SAS, in partnership with Intel, brings a panel of experts together to share how a collaborative integration of data and analytics is improving quality and outcomes.
We’re working to understand how environmental factors can help predict who may be at risk, allow for quicker diagnoses, and encourage the development of more precise treatments. The modern statistical and machine learning methods, along with the intuitive data visualizations made possible by SAS, have been critical elements of our success to date.Jim Metcalf Chief Data Scientist Healthy Nevada Project.
