General Electric (GE) is sponsoring a big competition on Kaggle: Hospital Quest, to improve the patient experience.


GE is also starting another big contest on Kaggle platform, with prizes totaling $100K.

Hospital Hospital Quest

Despite every good intention, far too often, frustration and confusion are common reactions to a hospital visit. Many factors must come together to avoid things like long wait times, poor communication, repetitive paperwork, procedure delays, damaged or lost equipment, delayed discharge, and more. It is estimated that there is $100 billion wasted annually in healthcare inefficiencies, distracting facilities from their primary focus - patient care.

Your challenge: Contribute to the design of the ultimate patient experience, ocusing on operational (non-medical) solutions that can promote an improved health care system experience for patient and family.

First milestone is Dec 21, 2012 and content ends on Feb 17, 2013.
