How we've helped our clients

Deloitte’s client was a healthcare insurance company. Healthcare insurance companies act as payers for healthcare to a range of providers, such as hospitals, clinics and pharmacies. Data transfers between providers and payers are characterized by the use of regulatory healthcare pricing models (updated annually) and the flow of both structured and unstructured data from multiple technology systems.

Deloitte assisted the client by providing insights into possible undercharging or overcharging for medical materials and services by some healthcare providers. The work involved building an Analysis Data Model (ADM) of structured and unstructured data, capable of processing the data quickly using advanced visualization dashboards to provide information and discover insights.
