Healthcare Hotspotting Healthcare hotspotting is the strategic use of data to reallocate resources to a small subset of high-needs, high-cost patients. A small number of individuals drives much of the cost in the American health care system.
Hotspotting uses data to discover the outliers, understand the problem, dedicate resources, and design effective interventions. It is a movement for a new system of multi-disciplinary, coordinated care that treats the whole patient and attends to the non-medical needs that affect health: housing, mental health, substance abuse, emotional support.
