Federal incentives produce roughly a thousandfold increase in EMR data, driving claims of 250 MB per patient per year and hundreds of terabytes to analyze. The stack uses visualization (a deployed horizon graph, Protovis/InfoVis/Gephi-style clouds) plus machine learning (an open-source neural net for PubMed matching and genetic algorithms to surface unexpected clusters). Prototypes predict no-shows, estimate payer mixes, and highlight lab-patterns; deployments with clinics report workable, iteratively refined tools and serious HIPAA privacy tradeoffs.
