Title: Advanced Analytics for
Advanced Healthcare
Abstract: Data science
has become a hot topic for both academic and professional work, as it
should be. We are living in a time where information is being generated
and captured at unfathomable rates. What would you do with all of this
information? If your line research, marketing, operations (or any type
of scalable work for that matter), is collecting data in such a way to
answer questions or generate value for this line of business that you
are in, you will need to have a data science team. In this talk, we
will try to outline what this practice looks like for us as we try to
find talented individuals that fit these descriptions. Express Scripts
leverages data science for building a better pharmaceutical beneficiary
management system. With the insights gained from this work, we are able
to improve member health outcomes and provide better service and value
to our members and clients.
