3. In-Brief The collection of medical datadetermines the patient's life quality improvement if the medical professionals, pharma, and the payers collaborate closely. Medical sectors must understand the collaboration between the patient, doctor, payer and prescription. The reliable data is now at the heart of anyhospital decision. Any participant in the health care ecosystem to work with incomplete or fragmented data is unthinkable that prohibits them from giving valuable insights and opens doors for compliance risk. Pubrica discusses the challenges in the medical sectors for medical data collectionservice.

4. Introduction to Data Collection: A Messy Problem Electronic health records capture and managethe information collected during patientconsultations. Personal health records and claims, patient portals, and reimbursement information from payers are present in different data sources of patients profiles from a medical device datacollection. Additional variables that may contribute to health outcomes include health behaviours, physical environment, socioeconomic factors, andlifestyle. Contd..

5. The information in healthcare is another consolidation and movement of databetween various health carepartners. The additional data about members and their environment may obtain from multiple vendors government sources that help make good predictions to the right patientsat the righttime. Data-driven recommendations and insights improve both quality and efficacy in hospitals, mainly for prevention of diseases and early identifying the riskpopulations. Contd..

6. Bringing all the data together and using it to make decisions is alwaysa significantchallenge. Theyare Fragmenteddata, Ever-changingdata, Privacy and securityregulations Patientexpectations Contd..

8. 1.Shattered Data Health care data come from perplexing sourceswith various formats like structured data, paper, videos, multimedia, digital pictures and soon. Data collection in medical sectorscommunities areequally shattered, making the integration and extraction ofdata is a realchallenge. Employers, social network communities, Providers, payers, public health specialists and patientscollect data, without unifying theinformation. Contd..

9. There are bifurcation and replication of data with no singlesource. It results in imprecise and imperfect health care profiles with little insight intoa patient's health journey and a member's having relationship with, payers, pharmacy, providers, friends and familymembers. A lack of miscommunication and understanding and support causes lowcohesion and highrisks. Poor communication often results in dismissal of procedures, rising thefinancial costs and inefficient utilisation of the resource in sample data collectionform medical research. Contd..

10. 2.Ever-changing Data The Patients and clinicians, may move,change their names and professions, retire and die like everyoneelse. The organisations also relocate, add newlocations or go through different mergers andacquisitions. The introduction of new treatments and drugs, personalised care models change the service delivery and data captured, making it difficult to keep health care data complete, clean andcurrent. Contd..

11. Dry data and dormant information straightly impact the experience of memberand business sustainability for the providers. It leads to delay in the adoption of new therapeutic options, insufficient response to medical sector programs and low commitment and experience and dependantto medicalhistory datacollection. Contd..

12. 3. Privacyand Security Regulations Preserving trust from patients is the foundationfor building a healthy medical sectorecosystem. Data security has become supremely crucial in the health care industry as the privacy of patientsdepends on HIPAA2 compliance and adoptingsecure electronic healthrecords(EHR). Also, with flighty regulatory needs, protecting datasets and commitment compliant will become achallenge. Contd..

13. Low data quality and strategy prevent organisations from meeting new regulatory needs and result in high costs associated with audits andreporting. Until data security and compliance issues addressing adequately, it's a challenging task to increase healthcare with broader people fordatacollection in the medicalfield. Contd..

14. 4.Expectations of the Patient The medical industry is about to experience the similar shift in retail, banking and hospitality management. The health care system is on-demand for the perfectservice. At the same time, pressures from millennials and Generation will force medical sector organisations to prefer newer forms of commitment. Contd..

15. Medical organisations must adapt themselves for a new generation, volume and type ofpersons. The industry will require to have an understanding of patients changing needs and their preferences and then provide solutions to align with their way oflife. Contd..

16. 5. Lack of Quality Assurance Processes There may be only a few opportunities toconfirm information with a patient who has been in contact withan emergency, meaning that the data initially collected cannot bedetermined. Additionally, the problems of record-keepingsystems may differ, and data quality is often dependant on the person entering the datacorrectly. Relying on the resourcing of an organisation, may not permit time to staff for reviewing the information for completeness and get missing data in the datacollection methodsfor medical research.

17. Conclusion Medical organisations are aspiring for a patient- centric focus that results in an excellent experiencefor members, cohesion to treatment, timely andcontinued patient commitment to provide valuablehealth information and regular reporting on the qualitywithin the management and revenue of the healthcare. These often-competing objectives,up-to-date information and reliable data must be readilyavailable of all concerned stakeholders in a practicalmanner. Contd..

18. Data-driven benefits are making headway in this area, enabling health care organisations to transform massive volumes of data into enterprise assets,driving quality patient care and cost management for medical records collectingdata.
