Healthcare reporting and analytics often require massive data volumes with tables that are both exceptionally wide and deep. Architectural concepts such as Large Type 2 Dimension tables, Many-to-Many Relationships, and Secondary Key Relationships are rare exceptions in most Business Intelligence designs yet are common in Healthcare. Numerous reference tables are often required that can also have complex architectures due to ever-changing categorization systems such as DRGs, ICDs, CPTs, and others. Add calculation logic such as qualifying visits, LOS calculations, complications, and cohort inclusion/exclusion criteria and the challenges becomes daunting. Successful solution design requires deep healthcare industry expertise along with powerful tools.
