Congruity Health wanted to build an ingestion and analytics platform that could provide analysis of claims and eligibility data in real-time for musculoskeletal and Type II diabetes diagnoses, codes, and procedures.
We were brought in to research, build, and launch an MVP health data platform that could help identify health event triggers and possible points of intervention, enabling providers to proactively reach out to patients with preventative measures.

HIPAA and PHI considerations
Any project that entails the handling of protected health information (PHI) requires extra steps to carefully plan and create solution architecture that’s HIPAA-compliant.
Our team had to carefully consider security and privacy issues relating to the tools, services, and configurations of Congruity’s platform. Once both teams aligned on the SA, the build portion went very quickly.
Approach
Research + discovery
- Analyzed the data, its sources, permission requirements, etc.
- Evaluated best-suited analytic platforms, connectors, and data stores
Alignment + prioritization
- Presented SA recommendations along with high-level build estimates
- Performed an approval & selection process of platform tools
- Prioritized build activities for remainder of phase
Development + delivery
- Configured and developed analytics platform foundation
- Setup initial queries and triggers architecture
- Integrated with telehealth provider’s Salesforce
Results
The Congruity Health platform is set up to proactively and predictively target patients in need of care by increasing access and accountability for targeted chronic disease management. The results? More accountability in healthcare and visibility to data that can reveal a patient’s changing health status based on the level of care they receive.
Working toward a mutual goal, Congruity Health and Digital Scientists are empowering the consumer while helping to decrease major health events and their associated costs.
