Hacking Big Data and Open Data in San Diego #Hack4SD

October 12 @ 8:30 am - 5:30 pm

2024 Theme

Enhancing Healthcare’s Digital Front Door

Subtitle: Digital solutions to help increase access, manage health, and improve patient satisfaction along the healthcare journey

Five Core Questions (Participated teams must select one or two questions from the list):
  • 1. Access to care: How can we make it easier to access care (especially specialists) and provide clear, timely notifications, and reminders along their healthcare journey?
  • 2. Patient satisfaction: How can we make it more convenient for patients to provide real-time feedback about their healthcare experience through a mobile app?
  • 3. New patient experience: As a potential new customer, how can we leverage the mobile app to help new patients better understand what services are available to them?
  • 4. Managing my health: It’s easy to get overwhelmed by all the tasks patients often have to do to maintain their health, how can we make managing health more enjoyable?
  • 5. Addressing mental health challenges: Mental health challenges may be difficult to identify and have a broad impact on health, how can we help clinicians be more in tune with patients mental health needs?
Optional Questions (Teams can select one additional optional question below and combine with the core questions for their project topics):
  • 1. Cultural Competence in Healthcare: How can we design a mobile app that helps healthcare providers better understand and respect cultural differences, improving communication and care for diverse patient populations?
  • 2. Access to Care for Rural and Remote Communities: How can we leverage technology to improve healthcare access for rural and remote communities, ensuring timely and specialized care for those in underserved areas? (Focus on SDSU Imperial Valley Connection – Rural/Remote)
  • 3. (For Geocomputational Thinker Awards) Enhancing disease prevention: How can big (geospatial) data analytics and AI be used to improve access to information about the influence of human behavior, cultural practices, and social interactions on the spread of diseases?
  • 4. (For Geocomputational Thinker Awards) Addressing environmental health disparities: How can we leverage big (geospatial) data analytics and AI to improve access to resources that mitigate the impact of environmental factors, i.e. pollution, on health disparities?

Your challenge is to create an app, platform, and/or technology that can tie into the Healthcare theme using datasets provided via our special GitHub site.
