The healthcare industry provides the huge amount of data, those data must be recorded in the database. The reports will be generated in automatically using some specific tools. It can enhance the quality of treatment for the patients. The patients can avoid the unwanted expenses. This paper includes the benefits and challenges of healthcare Keywords: BDA, Hadoop, Big data benefits, Healthcare, Machine learning, Smart health, Fraud analysis 1. INTRODUCTION The healthcare industry can generate the huge amount of data, it can keep the patient record. The most data store in only in hard copy, but nowadays data must be stored in digital method rather than analog. It can be used to improve the quality of treatment. It can include the clinical data like a prescription, healthcare images, and laboratory and pharmacy detail. BDA using tools (like hadoop) it will automatically generate the reports. The healthcare industry exhales a large amount of data day by day and it can be measured in a petabyte/Exabyte scale. It can be analyzed in big data and obtain the wanted results as a report. Size: The data can be generated in any organization or individuals, but it can increase day by day. According to the report size of medical care data in 2013 is 150 exabytes and maybe it can increase in 2,219 exabytes by 2020. Speed: It can be referred to the velocity which the new data should be generated and moves around. The social media (like Facebook, Twitter) adds to speed as the user’s views, posts. Veracity: The main aim is to ensure the data is reliable. It can contain the unstructured data. The new data types include social, appliance and cell phone sources. 2. USE OF BIG DATA IN MEDICAL CARE 2.1 For personage/patients We can analyze data like a set of people affected the same disease, and in the disease cause of the same environment or same lifestyle or any family related disease. The specific method of treatment will provide the patients. The patients got an accurate and quality treatment. 2.2 Fraud Analysis This data could help analysis the fraud related to a medical claim. It can be used to reduce the fraud, waste, and misuse. 2.3 Safety monitoring: The potential of transforming the healthcare organizations offer a wide range of facilities. This powerful method is used to save the patient’s life. 2.4 Public Health Public health issues must solve the analytics approach. A large amount of data help to determine needs, offer required services and predict and the future crises to benefit the population. 2.5 Proactively maintaining equipment Hospitals and medical care have a physical and technological infrastructure. Big data allows equipment diagnostics and analytics to run in real time. Equipment performance issues can instantly toward optimal performance, and it can be preventing the superior conservation or system crash.
