The Fabric of Health
How can big data analytics and algorithms make a difference in the health of a single patient? For the data scientists at Arcadia and some of America’s biggest health systems, this is the question they live to answer. Through a portrait series and a set of films using a direct-to-camera approach pioneered by Erroll Morris, we reveal the people and processes that come together to turn lifeless data into life-saving care.
The Data Crunchers
Healthcare is a massive ecosystem increasingly powered by big data. Behind the doctors and nurses and front-line caregivers are teams of data analysts in back rooms crunching numbers – knowing each data point leads to someone’s sick mother or friend. In this portrait series, we give an inside view of the smart, passionate people behind healthcare’s big data.
The Problem Solvers
Healthcare’s biggest challenges can only be solved through in-the-trenches collaboration and problem-solving. In this series of short films featuring Arcadia data analysts and health system leaders, we use an “Interratron” technique pioneered by Erroll Morris to reveal the partnership dynamics that led to breakthroughs in patient care.
