Preparing for your hack has never been so much fun! 😊 This year, we’re dropping it like it’s PROC with a customized board game called SAS Hackathon Ideation.   The game is designed to help you and your team brainstorm ideas, identify which problem to tackle and determine what data you will use – ultimately, it helps you strategically plan for success!   In the true spirit of gaming, Ideation is intended to engage teamwork and inspire creative problem-solving. You’ll see collaboration emerge as a key component. As you play, you’ll start imagining all the possibilities! That’s the immeasurable benefit of the SAS Hackathon – helping you see the tangible value in innovation.   Also, as part of the game, we encourage you to use our SAS Hackathon Lean Canvas document.

Team Name Benjamin & Joseph Track Health care & Life Sciences, IoT Use Case Developing a solution to automate and scale the line by line auditing of medical bills to ensure integrity and fairness for all healthcare payers Technology Python, SAS Visual Text Analytics, Intelligence Decisioning, Machine Learning, Analytics for IoT and Event Stream Processing Region APAC Team lead @KeithJong  Team members @AngieLiu  Social media handles Benjo Team  Is your team interested in participating in an interview? Y Optional: Expand on your technology expertise Keith has been a software engineer for the past 9 years, during which he has developed various innovative solutions. Angeline is a nurse by profession with over 20 years of experience. She has 8 years of professional medical bill auditing and is currently contributing to the development of the knowledge base for the solution.   Auditing is widely recognized as a labor-intensive and meticulous task, prone to human errors due to fatigue and skill limitations. However, the advent of machine learning and advanced natural language processing models has made the automation of audit processes increasingly viable.   Our objective is to concentrate on the production of an automated medical bill auditing solution, leveraging our team's expertise in this domain. Conducting a comprehensive audit of every item on medical bills for fraud and errors is currently impractical due to the vast volume of items. Manual audits, even of samples, would compromise both the time efficiency and accuracy of the process. By integrating SAS's machine learning capabilities with our experts' knowledge and proprietary business rules model, we can reduce human errors and enhance the scalability of medical bill auditing.   The risks associated with automation can be mitigated by involving human experts in the development and review stages, ensuring a robust and reliable automated auditing process.                                  ...
