Healthcare AI Needs Better Data Engineering: A New Paradigm for a Data-Driven Future
In his article “Healthcare AI Needs Better Data Engineering: A New Paradigm for a Data-Driven Future,” Jeffrey Eyestone, Chief Strategy & AI Officer at P‑n‑T Data Corp., argues that in today’s healthcare ecosystem—brimming with electronic health records, imaging systems, laboratory data, payer claims and wearables—the promise of artificial intelligence can only be fulfilled by a strong data-engineering foundation. He explains that seamless data access, rigorous quality control, real-time transformation, and robust governance are the true enablers of AI in healthcare. Without these, even the most advanced models will struggle to deliver meaningful outcomes.
