Data Insights Application for Financial Implications of Chronic Disease

Financial implications often impact those suffering from a chronic disease. Improving the patient experience and outcomes in the chronic disease space is an ongoing critical need, and this student team worked to focus on the financial impact on those suffering with sickle cell disease. Patients with sickle cell disease experience significant lifetime costs associated with obtaining and receiving adequate medical care. This student team worked towards the development of a data model that captures and analyzes patient-level cost information to drive informed decision making. Anticipated outcomes this student team worked toward include: • Working prototype, end-user platform for our sickle cell cost tool • Solution is accessible from desktop, tablet, and smartphone • Name and branding for tool • Reporting/visualization output designs
