I quit academia to start a non-profit focused on using open source to analyze the public hospital price transparency data.
We are now making similar dashboards for every hospital in the country, and need all the help we can get if you would be interested in using the latest geospatial mapping tools, databases (duckdb) and large language models to make sense of this massive amount of data.
Bitly was expensive, so this is a fun little use case for redirect rules for subdomains. Was coming increasingly handy as we scale our nonprofit, so wanted to share and open sourced this!
Yes! We are working on this and integrating with the OMOP common data model, to be able to link the health outcomes in our data partners' clinical repositories to the cost of care. For example, we work with the NIH All of Us study for outcome data (joinallofus.org -- I signed up both to contribute to this science and to get my whole genome sequenced free!)
If you look at the files, many of them are not compliant, and so we need to figure out what the associated line item corresponds to: a CPT code? HCPCS code? ICD code? etc :)
Here's an example NLP tool I helped build we're using to do this: https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.05342 -- it's in several pipelines now for data annotation and crowdsourcing.
Really meant as a critique of late stage capitalism where companies like Headspace have ads in New York encouraging us to “optimize” our mindfulness practice so we can train harder…
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Cadence & Slang by Nick Disabato: http://cadence.cc/
I found it a gentle but thorough introduction with great references for further reading. I wish I had read this before trying to design apps for the first time - it would have saved a lot of headache.
Thanks – I agree with your worries about misinterpretation, especially in regard to flawed study design. We're not trying to be the be-all end-all, but hopefully a decent starting point for further research into the subtleties of a specific topic. That's in addition to trying to make the science more accessible by having it appeal to a wider audience.
We're still narrowing down our content guidelines, so would love your input! Feel free to ping me.
I think the uncanny valley of this video as a makeshift 90s infomercial captures the audience and sells the product!
Caveat: vaporwave is one of my favorite genres so take this with a grain of salt.
