2. Data Warehouse
 Data Warehouse
– A copy of transaction data specifically structured for
querying and reporting
 Data Mart
– A logical subset of the complete data warehouse
 OLAP (On-Line Analytic Processing)
– The activity of querying and presenting text and number
data, usually with underlying multidimensional ‘cubes’ of
data
 Dimensional Modeling
– A specific discipline for modeling data that is an
alternative to entity-relationship (E/R) modeling; usually
employed in data warehouses and OLAP systems.

3. Data Warehouse Goals
 Speed up reporting
 Reduce reporting load on transactional systems
 Make institutional data more user-friendly and
accessible
 Integrate data from different source systems
 Enable ‘point-in-time’ analysis and trending over
time
 To help identify and resolve data integrity issues,
either in the warehouse itself or in the source
systems that collect the data

4. Warehouse Challenges
 High-level support
 Identification of reporting needs by subject area
and organizational role
 Bridging the gap between reporting needs and
technical specifications
 Partnerships with central and campus
administrative areas
 Customer support and training

5. Data Warehouse Web Sites
 Patient Support Web Site
 Main Reporting Web Site
 General Operating Budget Web Sites
 Web Sites Using Warehouse Extracts
– Health care Web Site
– Patients register online
– Patients cancel appointment online
– Doctors can register online .. Etc

6.  Large organizations build data warehouses to
“analyze what has occurred within the business
across time” in order to obtain “a competitive edge
in the marketplace.
 Many healthcare organizations see data
warehousing as a way to facilitate operational
efficiency and informed administrative decision
making.

15. Medical center
 Data warehousing and architecture
 Medical Management System
– Patient details and registration
– Consultations
– Resource allocation
– Pharmaceuticals management
– Billing and payments
– User interface conforming to usability guidelines
– Database with audio/visual and past consultations
– Future extensions (web, remote a/v consulting, etc)
– Management reports, security levels, accounting, etc.

16. Description
 Scope
– Patient registration
– Appointments scheduling
– Billing and payments (cash, CC, insurance)
– Security of the whole system
– Web interface (proposed for future)

17. Description
 Assumptions
– Patient must provide insurance details when
registering.
– Advance deposit require when patient don’t have
Insurance.
– Appointments can be cancelled 24 hours in
advance without penalty
– Patient medical history can be viewed by
concerned doctors at the hospital with approval
of the patient .

18. Background about medical center
 Office staff can perform various functions like appointment scheduling,
billing, entering prescriptions, lab results, patient charts, etc. through
the Web or manually .
 Doctors can look up their schedules enter schedule changes, review
patient charts, look at lab results and enter prescriptions.
 Patients can look up appointments, cancel them, request new
appointments, look up statements, enter credit card payments, look up
their medications, receive notifications of their lab results and change
their addresses. New patients may look up physicians by their specialty,
request appointments, register themselves on line. Direct Electronic
Billing avoids paper.
 Patients can review statements & make payments over the internet.
Pharmacists can receive notifications regarding prescriptions, request
re-fills or re-work on a prescription.

19. Users
The Hospital Management System is mainly designed by keeping in mind
all the possible users, which are:
• Doctors
• Staffs
• Patients
Everyone has their unique ID and passwords to access their
patients and patient’s to see their reports and medication.

20. Doctors
Doctor has to login with unique login id and password for particular practice
i.e. s/he can not login to more than one practice at a time. (Since there will
be different database for different practices) After successful login s/he will
be redirected to schedule for that day to see his/her appointments, (default
page). S/he doctor can make new appointment, mark event, recall and give
prescriptions.
The Doctor’s section contains the following features:
• Patient
• Appointments
• Prescriptions
• Billing
• Reports
• Patient charts
• Lab results
User’s

21. Staffs
Staff has to login with unique login id and password for particular practice
after successful login s/he will be redirected to staff’s authorities . S/he can
perform all functions in the practice management as dictated by the
permissions set up by the Practice administrator.
Among the staff there will be one practice administrator who will set
permissions for doctors, staff & patient
The staff’s section contains the following features:
• Patient
• Appointments
• Prescriptions
• Billing
• Reports
• Patient charts
• Lab results
User’s

22. Patient
Patient has to login with unique login id and password for particular practice
i.e. s/he can not login to more than one practice at a time. (Since there will
be different database for different practices) After successful login s/he will
be redirected schedule for that day to see his/her appointments where
Patient can view his appointment, cancel appointment or view prescriptions
and request new appointment via email or phone call. Patient can sign
up/register for particular practice by entering his information, which will be
validated by staff & will respond accordingly. Any alert posted through e-mail
if not responded within a stipulated time then the patient is contacted on
his/her contact no/Fax.
The patient’s section contains the following features:
• Appointments
• Prescriptions
• Reports
• Lab results
User’s

29. Security
 Security. A steering committee of clinicians guided the initial
development of the CDR and established policies for its
utilization and access. Only authorized users may log onto
the CDR. To protect confidentiality, all patient and physician
identifying information has been partitioned into a “secure”
database. Translation from or to disguised identifiers to or from
actual identifiers is possible but requires a written request and
appropriate approval (for example, from a supervisor or the human
investigations committee). All data transmitted from the database
server to the user’s browser are encrypted using the secure
Netscape Web server, and all accesses to the database are logged.
In addition,

30. Conclusion
 The most challenging security threat in Data Warehouse and
OLAP systems is:
 Data stored in data warehouse may be disclosed through
seemingly innocent OLAP queries
 2 main inference threat that should be considered:
 1-d inference
 m-d inference
 We presented 3 methods to prevent / remove inference:
 Cardinality-based method
 Parity-based method
 Lattice-based inference control
 All above methods are applicable to the three-tier inference
control architecture, that especially suits OLAP systems.
