Source of truth

Previously complex and siloed systems have been integrated into a unified data ecosystem to enable reliable AI use cases.

CHALLENGE

Overcoming siloed healthcare data

Operating across multiple hospital locations in Colombia, Santa Fe de Bogotá Foundation struggled with siloed data trapped in spreadsheets, Oracle, and local files. This data fragmentation caused critical reporting processes, such as the hospital’s Financial Cube tool, to take up to 14 hours to compile.

The lack of unified, high-quality data also hindered the organization’s ability to map the complete patient journey and develop the advanced AI models it needed to enhance both clinical care and strategic decision-making.

SOLUTION

Partnering for a unified data architecture

Teaming up with Qlik Partner All4Analytics, the foundation implemented Qlik Talend Cloud Enterprise to overhaul its data environment and pipelines. By utilizing Qlik’s powerful batch and CDC ingestion, data quality, and governance capabilities, the team established a powerful, seamless, hybrid data architecture.

Disparate on-premises and cloud data sources are now funneled into Snowflake hosted on AWS, creating a centralized, single source of truth that is easily accessible and strictly governed to meet the high standards of patient care.

RESULTS

Faster insights, better patient outcomes

With Qlik Talend data solutions, data processing times have plummeted from 14 hours to under an hour. This efficiency allows the hospital to merge financial data with clinical information, including emergency room visits and surgeries, providing an unprecedented, holistic view of the patient journey.

This centralized, high-quality data also feeds natively into Snowflake, empowering the foundation to successfully deploy real-time AI models that improve clinical outcomes, education, and resource management across the organization.
